A work vehicle equipped with: a straight-traveling system transmission path including a first stepless transmission device (17); a turning system transmission path including a second stepless transmission device (13); left and right traveling units (3) that receive a driving force from an engine (5) and move the work vehicle in forward and in reverse; and a brake operation tool (35) that actuates a brake mechanism (751). The output of the straight-traveling system transmission path and the output of the turning system transmission path are combined to drive the traveling units (3). When the operation amount to the brake operation tool (35) exceeds a first predetermined amount, a control section (813, 814) blocks the driving force output from the first stepless transmission device (17), and at the same time, sets a swash plate of the second stepless transmission device (13) in a neutral state.

Variator (20) and forward clutch (Fwd/C) disposed in series are provided between engine (1) having starter motor (15) and driving wheel (7). Sailing stop control that, on the basis of satisfaction of sailing entering condition, interrupts power transmission by frictional engagement element (Fwd/C), stops engine (1) and performs coast-travel is performed. When sailing entering condition is satisfied, coast-travel is started with rotation stop timing of variator (20) being delayed with respect to rotation stop timing of engine (1). When accelerator pedal depression operation intervenes after start of coast-travel, engine (1) is restarted by starter motor (15). When judged that input and output rotation speeds of frictional engagement element (Fwd/C) become synchronization rotation speed after restart of engine (1), frictional engagement element (Fwd/C) is reengaged. Shift response from coast-travel to normal travel is therefore improved at change-of-mind at which sailing quitting condition is satisfied during progress of automatic stop of engine.

A method for operating an automatic transmission (1) of a motor vehicle in which a hydraulic pump, associated with a hydraulic system, for supplying pressure in the hydraulic system is driven by a drive engine and in which hydraulic shifting elements (B1, B2, B3, C1, C2) are actuated to engage gear steps. According to the method, before the drive engine is turned off for a short duration of time, at least one non-actuated shifting element (B1, B2, B3, C1, C2) of the automatic transmission (1) is actuated or filled with pressure oil.

A vehicle powertrain includes an engine and a transmission coupled to the engine. The transmission has a first neutral state in which a first combination of clutches are engaged and a second neutral state in which a second combination of clutches are engaged. A vehicle controller is programmed to, in response to the transmission being in the first neutral state and an engine-torque request exceeding a threshold value, shift the transmission to the second neutral state.

An apparatus for controlling an electric oil pump (EOP) includes a controller calculating first revolutions per minute (RPM), second RPM and third RPM, the first RPM being EOP RPM required for control of a brake in a transmission, the second RPM being EOP RPM required for cooling of a plurality of motors, and the third RPM being EOP RPM required for lubrication of the plurality of motors, the controller comparing the second RPM with the third RPM and driving the EOP at an RPM obtained by adding the first RPM to the greater of the second RPM and the third RPM.

A continuously variable transmission (100), wherein pressure equalization control is performed to make line pressure (PL) equal to secondary pressure (Psec) when prescribed start conditions are satisfied. During pressure equalization control, a secondary pressure indicated value (Psec_co) is raised by a prescribed amount (S10), then a line pressure indicated value (PL_co) is gradually decreased (S30). If determination is made that line pressure is the same as the secondary pressure after secondary actual pressure (Psec) is lowered (S40), then the line pressure is controlled so that the secondary actual pressure (Psec) becomes the secondary pressure indicated value (Psec_co) (S50). At the start of pressure equalization control, if the difference (Psec) found by subtracting the secondary pressure indicated value from the secondary actual value is negative (S120), then a primary pressure indicated value is corrected on the basis of the difference (S130).
