Gearbox Coding

Had gearbox work done, or noticing rough shifts? We code and adapt transmission control units on-site, so your gearbox changes smoothly and correctly again.

Steps

What We Do For Gearbox Coding

Read, code, and road-ready

  1. 1

    Check the Gearbox

    We read the transmission control unit and its current adaptation values.

  2. 2

    Code & Adapt

    We code the TCU and run the adaptation so gear changes are smooth and correct.

  3. 3

    Road-Ready

    We confirm the gearbox shifts properly and the fault is resolved before we leave.

How It Works

Smooth, Correct Gear Changes

We code the transmission control unit and run the adaptation, so your gearbox shifts the way it should after repairs or a replacement.

TCU Coding

New or Rebuilt Gearboxes

We code transmission control units after a gearbox repair, rebuild or replacement.
