CAn anyone explain why this happens only in first and second YouTube - Clutch slip 2

This was the day before this issue started http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKgXU...eature=related

 

in the first one they jump straight to 6500 and holds

 

Should slip worse in 3rd, 4th, 5th. 1st and 2nd normally the tires break loose well before the clutch slips. I see mainly speedo lag in those videos not much slip. I should put a video of my car slipping in 3rd from 55-60MPH. RPMs jump to 5200 at 62 MPH then back down to 4300 LOL.

 

well the tires arent spinning. idk this car has been one thing after another

 

This is most likely the issue since mine behaves the same as Term described right down to the clutch slipping in 3rd if I'm not above ~3200RPM and don't roll into it (when I have a temporary mental lapse).

 

If you leave TC on what happens?

 

slow as *****. and wont hadly get out of its on way it only does this on the tune. the low traction light comes on almost the moment i get half throttle and just kinda bogs down

 

Now that I have seen the video finally (sorry bro laggin on that) Term is right dude... the laggy speedo seems to be the culprit.

The low traction light wouldn't come on if the clutch is slipping... at least it didn't when mine was slipping.

 

well guess im back to square one again.. looks like traction control is still coming on when it shouldnt be. when vince gets back with me since he is out of town at a funeral i will see what he says about it. i have had issue after issue witth this car for some reason. Vince said form the logs looks like the traction control is always on for some reason. so idk.

 

Hmmm bitch slap your ECU and tell it to let you do what you want to or you will trade it in for a 67 chevelle with no electric nannies lol

 

im lookig more towards a 70 ss chevelle lol

 

does it do this when you turn your tune off? or no?

feel free to slap me if you've said this somewhere and I've missed it

 

LOL I want a '69 Yenko camaro... I just don't have $125,000 just floating around.

 

Doesnt sound like clutch slip.....

 

Yea but it's a you tube video... It doesn't sound like he has a 3 inch straight exhaust either but I think he does... If I recall he has basically the same setup as me... its hard to diagnose a car via internet.

 

Out of random curiosity, what numbers are your tune putting down? I paid the car off months ago, warranty is about to expire (1yr left) and every time I see vids/ride in a tuned one the itch to throw parts/a tune at it gets worse. That looks to be pulling substantially harder than the GMS1 even with the issue .

 

^^^^ powertrain warranty is in there for 5 years man ^^^^

 

Meh. No car payments, I blow it up, I'll just buy a new motor/tranny . Besides Sean, Riaan, etc. are showing the car can take it and are holding together well and Kev knows what he's doing .

 

Ryan is correct we have the same setup except he has hp tune and I have trifecta

 

I haven't dynoed the car yet. Been trying to make sure it wa at 100% before I did. But I am o the most aggressive tune vince will do. So I know something is limiting me somewhere

 

No need to slap anyone lol. It doesn't do it while on stock settings off the tune

 

Cool, thanks .

You know what, random thought and may be completely unrelated. My buddy got dual tuned and his car started acting completely retarded a few weeks after. It would accelerate on its own Toyota style amongst other problems. Further diagnosis showed the ECM was on its way out and needed to be replaced and since then, no issues. If I'm not mistaken TC is handled by the ECM/BCM communicating with one another, but it might be worth a look if Vince said that TC seems to be enabled 100% of the time even when you shut it off to enable the tune?

 

vince may need slapped sounds like the trifecta tunes are causing some issues lol jk man, mine messes with me to...theres no way ur clutch is slipping that bad all the way to 5 grand lol id say it just needs datalogged and vince will fix it up.

 

He has two logs but he is out if town he grandfather passed away so he will look sunday and fix me up.

 

Look like its just lag, i did a video when i got tuned last spring and it look the same...
