How to reset adaptive shifting points on Mercedes Benz?
This procedure will reset the adaptive shifting points in your Mercedes-Benz automatic Transmission Control Unit (TCU). These simple do it yourself instructions take less than 5 minutes. No tools are required to perform this procedure and make your Mercedes-Benz shift like new. Try this if your car has been shifting sluggish recently.
What happens when you reset the transmission shift points?
It is not going to make your shifting abnormal. If your gear shifts are abnormal you have something else going on. Resetting the transmission shift points makes the transmission the same as when the car is out of the factory. Within 30 driving cycles, the ECU will monitor your driving habits and adapt the shifting points to your driving style.
What are the three rules of shift point tuning?
The first two rules are fairly obvious. The third rule is needed to avoid the case where a vehicle shifts up, the RPM is reduced in the new gear, then the vehicle shifts back down, starting an infinite cycle of up and downshifting.
What should the upshift point be on an automatic transmission?
For quick shifting, the upshift points should be close to the maximum RPM of the engine. In this example, that is 2100 RPM. The downshift point is also raised, but cannot be higher than RPM after shifting. It is possible for an automatic transmission to cycle between gears in certain situations.

How are shift points determined in an automatic transmission?
In an automatic transmission, predefined points determine when the transmission will shift up (higher gear number, faster speed, lower gear ratio) or down. Generally, transmission shift points are easy to read and are often known but in some cases, they are not.
When do you use the quick shift point?
Many vehicles have two sets of up and downshift points, one (“normal”) that is active at most throttle positions, another higher set (often called “quick shift”) used when the throttle is near 100%. The quick shift is used under hard acceleration to help the vehicle stay in a higher RPM range, where the engine generally has more power.
What should the upshift point be on a car?
In the example below, a vehicle has an idle RPM of 750 and max RPM of 2200. Upshifting is set for 1850 RPM for all gears. For quick shifting, the upshift points should be close to the maximum RPM of the engine. In this example, that is 2100 RPM.
