The disclosure provides a control method, a control device for vehicular automatic transmission, and a recording medium. The control device includes an ON/OFF control solenoid controlling LC to either ON or OFF, and an LC pressure control linear solenoid controlling LC pressure between a released state and a fully engaged state. The control device acquires, when an accelerator pedal opening of a vehicle is on a deceleration side in a fully closed state, a torque converter slip ratio when the ON/OFF control solenoid maintains ON for a predetermined time period and the LC pressure control linear solenoid is controlled such that the LC pressure is OFF, and determines whether or not the second solenoid has a high-pressure fixation failure according to whether or not the slip ratio is within a predetermined range from a slip reference value.

An apparatus for shift control in a vehicle is provided. The apparatus includes storage configured to store speed profiles corresponding to respective gears of the vehicle for each of a plurality of downhill slopes, and a controller configured to perform the shift control in the vehicle based on the speed profiles, when the vehicle coasts on a downhill road.

An apparatus for controlling transmission of vehicle may include a determining device to determine whether to perform deceleration control, based on the vehicle and a target for the deceleration control in front of the vehicle, a calculating device to sub-divide a distance between a current position of the vehicle and the target for the deceleration control into sections, and calculate a target distance for each section of the plurality of sections and a target speed of the section, based on a current speed of the vehicle and the distance between the current position of the vehicle and the target for the deceleration control, a gearshifting stage deciding device to determine a gearshifting stage for each section of the plurality of sections, based on the calculated target speed and the calculated target distance for the section by configuring a deceleration profile for each gearshifting stage, and a control device to control the transmission for each section based on the gearshifting stage for the section.

A shift control device for a vehicle includes: an engine; a shift mechanism disposed between the engine and driving wheels; a shift control section configured to control a transmission gear ratio of the shift mechanism; and a fuel cut control section configured to stop a fuel supply to the engine, at least when an accelerator pedal is in a release state, and when an engine speed is equal to or greater than a predetermined rotation speed, the shift control section being configured to perform a minimum rotation speed restriction control to control the transmission gear ratio of the shift mechanism so that the minimum rotation speed of the engine is equal to or greater than the predetermined rotation speed regardless of a vehicle front condition and an accelerator operation condition.

An active shift control method for a power-off downshift of the hybrid vehicle is provided. The method includes increasing the torque of an engagement clutch in a transmission while disengaging a disengagement clutch by reducing the torque of the disengagement clutch in the transmission, when the shift of a power-off downshift is requested. A motor speed is adjust for a transmission input shaft rotary speed to reach a predetermined target stage synchronization speed of a target stage after shifting, and the torque of the engagement clutch is maintained in a state where the disengagement clutch has been disengaged. The engagement of the engagement clutch is completed by increasing the torque of the engagement clutch when the transmission input shaft rotary speed has reached the target stage synchronization speed.

An apparatus configured for controlling starting of engine may include a clutch pedal including an ignition lock switch, a starter, a status detecting unit, an electronic clutch mounted between the engine and a transmission, a clutch controller configured to control coupling and releasing of the electronic clutch, check status of the electronic clutch and generate a clutch status data, and a vehicle controller configured to enter coasting running mode based on the vehicle status data, and, during the coasting running mode, operate the starter and restart the engine based on the clutch status data provided from the clutch controller and a switch status data of the ignition lock switch when a position value of an acceleration pedal included in the vehicle status data is equal to or greater than an acceleration reference value.

An apparatus for shift control in a vehicle is provided. The apparatus includes storage configured to store speed profiles corresponding to respective gears of the vehicle for each of a plurality of downhill slopes, and a controller configured to perform the shift control in the vehicle based on the speed profiles, when the vehicle coasts on a downhill road.

A method to control the execution of a shift to a higher gear with a released accelerator pedal in a drivetrain provided with a dual-clutch, servo-assisted transmission, comprising the steps of: opening, in a first instant, an outgoing clutch; closing, in the first instant, an incoming clutch; synchronizing, between a second instant and a third instant, a rotation speed of the internal combustion engine with a rotation speed of the incoming clutch, namely with the rotation speed imposed by the gear ratio of the following gear; completely opening, in the third instant, the outgoing clutch; completely closing, in the third instant, the incoming clutch; keeping the torque transmitted by the outgoing clutch constant between the second instant and a fourth instant; and keeping the torque transmitted by the incoming clutch constant between the second instant and the fourth instant.

In a coasting control process, an ECU increases line pressure PL of a hydraulic path to predetermined pressure P1 such that discharge pressure of an MOP becomes higher than that before a C1 clutch is disengaged at timing when an executing condition of coasting control is satisfied (time t=t1). According to such coasting control process, driving torque of the MOP increases, so that deceleration (deceleration G) caused by driving of the MOP by a drive wheel becomes larger than that in conventional coasting control in which the discharge pressure of the MOP is not increased. As a result, it is possible to inhibit a driver from feeling discomfort due to free-running feeling generated during the coasting control.

A method for operating a drivetrain of a motor vehicle includes elevating a system pressure acting on a plurality of shift elements (A, B, C, D, E, F) when one of at least one positively locking shift element (A, F) is closed in a force-locking-free state, increasing a torque output by a drive assembly (15) and then subsequently reducing the torque output by the drive assembly (15) while the system pressure is elevated by an intervention with the drive assembly (15), and reducing the system pressure after reducing the torque output by the drive assembly (15). The one of the at least one positively locking shift element (A, F) closed in the force-locking-free state or another one of the at least one positively locking shift element (A, F) is opened while the system pressure is elevated and the torque output by the drive assembly (15) changes.
