wish I had fun feedback of my car with the 3.06 gear change but I don't 3 tries and its a no go. giving someone else a shot at it as we speak so we shall see.

Hulk

Sorry bro, what is the issue, hanging shifts?

99lightning

paddles don't work and wont shift past 3rd

Hulk

That is weird man

Hulk

Bro I know it's crazy but try shifting with the gear selecter just to see if it shifts

99lightning

that didn't even work

Hope you get this sorted out soon.


Odd bit about the paddles no longer being recognized. Have you tried them in manual mode? The reason I ask is that the 2003 E55 TCU only shifts in manual mode using the paddles (not sport or comfort) ... 2004 and later TCUs shift with paddles in all modes. ... perhaps the TCU thinks it is an older one now (or has been swapped?)

good luck with this project,
Chris

Is your Vin programmed in the new tcu? When I got a new transmission and new tcu the paddle shifters would not work until the tcu was programmed with my vin

Hulk

I have 2 tcu and without being programmed via vin they both worked, paddles and all

ready to sell the car as is to be honest

Didn't Craig successfully install and tune for the 3.06 gears?

99lightning

yup

Hulk

Pacougar also did a gear swap with jerry tcu tune with good results

JoeNobody

I also did a 2.82 gear swap, and EuroCharged did the TCU modification.

99lightning

jerry is working on it

Hulk

He will straighten you out

Which tcu do you have. Egs 52, or 53. This could make the difference on success.
