RE: Any 2009 manuals here yet?
Hmm, that is not how it was initially explained to me. But, if that is the case, I am deffinately going to have to disable it ASAP.
Edit: Did a little more research. Venthos is right. I was looking for a skip shift eliminator plug, but I also learned that the Predator Tuner I am getting has a feature to disable the CAGS/Skipshift. Problem solved. [sm=smiley20.gif] |
RE: Any 2009 manuals here yet?
No way. I talked to an engineer at Dodge who said they weren't making any 6 speeds until next week.
ORIGINAL: SKiDs33t There is a guy over on the Challenger Z Forum that says there is a fully loaded Black 6-Speed SRT on a lot in Houston. Im a bit sceptical right now so I am waiting for him to post pics before I go ballistic. |
RE: Any 2009 manuals here yet?
That is what I thought too. As I said I am sceptical. If this guy produces pics, Ill let you guys know. But dont hold your breath.

RE: Any 2009 manuals here yet?
I looked at Dodge's website and I don't see this Skip shift thing listed. Can someone point it out to me? Thanks

RE: Any 2009 manuals here yet?
I HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT THE CAGS (SKIP SHIFT) FEATURE WITH THE 6 SPEED TRANNY.
BUT, IT MAKES SENSE, BECAUSE THIS IS THE EXACT TRANNY THAT IS USED BY THE CORVETTE WHICH ALWAYS HAD CAGS. THIS 'TRE-MEC' TRANSMISSION IS USED IN THE VIPER, CORVETTE AND MUSTANG. (DON'T PUKE, BUT TRE-MEC - WHICH WAS FORMERLY KNOWN AS BORG WARNER - IS OWNED BY FORD) SO, IF YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW HOW IT WORKS, GO TO YOUR CHEVY STORE AND TEST DRIVE A MANUAL TRANNY CORVETTE AND TRY IT OUT. IT'S REALLY NO BIG DEAL. TO OVERIDE IT YOU CAN DISCONNECT IT OR GIVE THE THROTTLE A LITTLE BLIP AFTER COMING OUT OF 1ST GEAR AND THEN YOU'LL BE ABLE TO GET INTO 2ND GEAR WITHOUT ANY HASSLE. |
RE: Any 2009 manuals here yet?
Holy caps lock batman.
You *can* disconnect it, but in 1996 I believe it was it was required that anything that is not functioning properly which can effect emissions needed to throw a code. This means if you simply pop the connector on CAGS then it'll throw a code and your emissions light will come on. You need to use the dongle w/a resistor that mimics the CAGS electrical current to prevent codes from being thrown. That, or disable via Predator Tune. I'm not sure if CAGS/Skip-Shift is listed at dodge.com but it's mentioned on allpar.com |

RE: Any 2009 manuals here yet?
Dumb question. Can you shift gears without depressing the clutch pedal on this tranny? Or power shifting?
|
RE: Any 2009 manuals here yet?
When you know the vehicle thats the way to do it....just dont do it with load...I have always done that with sticks and just use clutch to stop and go.
