Automatic transmission adaptation is necessary to ensure optimal operation of the transmission by calibrating its parameters in accordance with the driving style and operating conditions of the vehicle.
Required equipment:
* Adapter for Toyota Techstream or Carman Scan diagnostics
*Laptop or tablet
Adaptation procedure:
1. Connect the diagnostic adapter to the vehicle diagnostic connector.
2. Launch Techstream or Carman Scan software.
3. Select your car model and year.
4. Go to the ‘Transmission’ section.
5. Select ‘Automatic transmission adaptation’.
6. Follow the instructions on the screen. Typically the adaptation process takes about 15-20 minutes.
7. After adaptation is complete, turn off the ignition and wait a few minutes.
8. Start the engine and shift through all gears (P, R, N, D, 2, 1).
9. During the driving process, the automatic transmission will ‘learn’ your driving style and adapt its parameters accordingly.
