If you desire to enhance the performance of your vehicle equipped with an automatic transmission, a gearbox TCU remap is the perfect complement to our engine ECU remapping services. Our comprehensive support encompasses a broad range of automatic transmissions, including the conventional ZF6 and ZF8 torque converter automatics, as well as the cutting-edge DSG, Tiptronic, S-Tronic, and 7G-Tronic systems. However, the benefits of gearbox TCU remapping are not limited to the enhancement of performance. By relaxing the gearbox torque limiters, we can increase both power and torque, resulting in lightening-fast gear shifts that are smoother and more seamless. Furthermore, gearbox TCU remapping can result in faster reactions to tiptronic or paddle shift inputs (where fitted), and improved low speed and off-the-line response through earlier torque converter locking. In certain cases, it may also lead to increased fuel efficiency as a result of reduced power loss through the drivetrain. As for why manufacturers do not offer these benefits as standard, it is because of the cost-saving benefits of mass production. By building the same gearbox multiple times and using different software configurations, manufacturers can utilize the same hardware in multiple models or variants within their range. For instance, the DSG gearbox used by Volkswagen and Audi has faster and more dynamic shift patterns and speeds in S and RS models compared to the standard A models, despite using the same physical gearbox. Additionally, it is important to note that gearbox TCU remapping will not increase fuel consumption. On the contrary, quicker gear shifts and earlier transmission locking result in a more efficient gearbox that utilizes a higher percentage of engine power at lower rev ranges. This, in turn, reduces fuel consumption. If you’re interested in having your gearbox remapped, it can be done at your residence. Simply schedule an appointment to ensure that your vehicle receives the full benefits of gearbox TCU remapping.
