I have an idea that this box as fitted to my C4GP might benefit from a recalibration procedure using lexia 3.
It looks like it might take a little time to go through the whole process, well for the first time- given that I would choose to pick my way carefully.
My worry is whether the economy mode would kick in [the one that switches off the radio etc.]

Re: EGS 6 gearbox programming.
Dont worry about economy mode if its doing a diagnostic procedure,Lexia knows its doing this. I would however connect another running car with jump leads as battery voltage is critical when doing this, it can take a lot out the battery, if the voltage drops too low the procedure can and does fail.

Re: EGS 6 gearbox programming.
Thanks wheeler. IF the procedure were to fail is that fatal- or is it just back to square #1

It is not a problem if the calibration is not completed

Re: EGS 6 gearbox programming.
I wouldn’t go as far as fatal but it can prevent the car starting. If the gearbox ECU doesn’t know what gear it is in it will inhibit the starter.discv wrote: 09 Jun 2021, 11:54 Thanks wheeler. IF the procedure were to fail is that fatal- or is it just back to square #1
If you use battery support you should be ok. If the procedure fails just repeat it.
