Stalling after spinning (on obstacles)

[ParadigmDawg]

Have they fixed the No Limitz yet? I was thinking of getting one to eliminate cylinder deactivation. I’m guessing that’s not the problem in this case though. I think it’s deactivated in 4-low.

I am uncertain if it's truly fixed. I was in the Beta program and they lack of updates and communication made me bail out.

I get pretty aggressive in the rocks so I use M1 and M2 to avoid wheel spin. It works out great and can really save you on those obstacles where your back-end could kick out and cause a rollover

I normally am in manual mode too. I need to pay attention to if it cuts torque when in manual or if I am in auto when it occurs.

I will see if I can fine a video of it cutting power.

They had some software problems early on but since the current version (24.1.8) came out mine has been working perfectly. Maybe time to give it a (another) try.

I recently installed same version. Haven’t had any issues!

Please update this thread when you get an answer so we can all learn things.

As per what I found online and Scott Blum mentioning the same...

Has to do with the 8 speed not having overrun clutches in them and if you stop or slightly go backwards, while in drive, the trans will stall out the engine. He also mentioned he can easily recreate it with his 3.6.

The fix forward?

Adjusting driving style, not fully lifting off the gas, just barely keep some pressure on there to keep it from stalling. So for me, left foot braking even when lockers are on only while doing the more interesting obstacles. My habit is that once lockers are on, I usually don't left foot brake much. Not a big difference in technique as I am already used to LFB.

Retarded idea - in days long gone by (YJs), an easy fix for raising idle speed was to add a hand throttle. Those were as simple as a cable operated throttle that ran to the throttle body.. Typically these were hung on the shift lever, and you could tweak idle as needed as you worked your way over obstacles (since they were manual gear boxes w/ a clutch).

The only problem is now since it’s fly by wire… anybody got an idea how we could hang an adjustable throttle in the current system?

Makes sense to me. Reading this makes me think I use left foot braking more often than you do, and I haven't had this problem. Thanks for the follow up info.
