Adaptive AT Question.....
For those of you with late model 4-Runners or Tundras with the same Adaptive Transmission in the FJ......Is there a power lag when you stomp on the accelerator? My ML320's had adaptive trannys which initially sounded great, but the reality was another thing. A few times I was in freeway situations where stomping the go pedal was the way out of problems. The ML was dangerous. Stomp....count ONE, TWO- and then the power would come on, but not like full open throttle power---just more power that would build up. Like I said...I think it was dangerous. In the Acura MDX I just sold- which also had an Adaptive Transmission- The power came on quicker, but also had a delay. Stomp, count ONE, and the tranny would downshift the the computer would allow more power. I guess I prefer a more instant power response. So, what are your experiences in you Toyotas?
