Dear Friends,

After repeated hesitations of the STR Gearbox to downshift as the mileage decreased, I decided on a complete gearbox oil change with the original ZF 6 Oils, careful emptying of the gearbox( I removed about 8 liters ) and replacement of the 4 hoses from rubber (window from rubber, below the mechatronic) and the seal of the module's Blushing. When I finished, I attempted to perform adaptation control module with the IDS. Unfortunately,the connection was lost during the adaptation process, resulting in the above indications. The fault codes I'm seeing are P1643, P1582, as well as a lack of communication with the TSM and ABS Modules. The J gate constantly illuminates the 5th gear indicator, and during startup and reverses, there is intense vibration from the gearbox. The car , of course, is moving with one gear due to the restricted performance mode and with a lot more RPM than it would normally with certain speeds. Can we do something to fix it? Any help would be useful.

Thanks,
Mike

 

x202? if you used any version of IDS before 120 you cooked your TCM sorry

 

Info we got a few decades ago.

 

I had that happen once on my 06 str. I was reflashing the tcm and forgot to plug the laptop into car power and it died about half way thru with the tcm a mess. Luckily i went to a saved session where i had read the vid block and was able to start over in that session and programming went perfect. I got lucky. Bobs tsbs are the gold standard

 

I am using 131.03 v 116 and i have made years ago. the same process and all went good.
