[QUOTE="windrunner408, post: 185203, member: 1868"] Ok the truck has not been in any extremes. It has been a while since my transmission fluid was changed. Like 50k miles since I changed it last. Nevertheless like I stated earlier, the transmission shifts great and I dont notice any flares of shifting ever even when this boosting condition exists. I also agree that I need to change the fluid and filters ASAP and WILL do in about two weeks when I get paid again. FYI the trans temp usually hangs out at 130*F (by my CTS) when it is cold out and up around 160-170*F when it is 80-90*F. I also will watch VGT duty cycle when this happens and see if it is turbo or engine that changes first. I want to say that it is engine that goes first but not 100% certain. Now I do know that VGT duty cycle goes to 48% or so while this condition does exist. I havent monitored ICP and I wouldnt know if it would help until I go drive the truck with the stock tune on it as if it is tuned the ICP wont be accurate anyways. Nevertheless I could watch for the change in ICP. FICM Voltage stays constant between 48.0-49.0v regardless. EOT/ECT delta is about 10-18*F always. I have an oil cooler delete and my oil temp at the sensor fluctuates between 200-208F and ECT is about 190F all the time. Now I have thought about this as well if this was the case, then the truck would do this even in the cold and at least for right now it doesnt seem to do this when it is cold outside. No the truck does not recover on its own. The only way for the truck to recover is to shut it down and let it cool off. Then when you restart it and everything heats back up again, it will do the same thing. I do not know if the EBP sensor has been disabled with my strategy or not. I have the VXCF4HB ECM strategy. I have also removed and cleaned the EBP sensor and tube. [/QUOTE]
