    Default Supercharged vt problems

    Hey i have a vt commodore which is supercharged. It was originally standard but previous owner bought supercharged engine and charger and converted it. Keep having problems with gearbox changing gears weird and when putting from park to gear sometimes it will jump hard into gear. It also has lights coming up on dash but when i took it to a transmission bloke he said there was nothing wrong with gearbox. he put diagnostic on it and read all the codes which were mostly sensor problems. all sensors have been replaced and no change. Im not sure if the ecu has been changed anyone know what could be dooing this

    Ok I assume its had an l67 conversion ? the gearbox problem sounds like the Throttle position sensor is playing up did you replace this and then reset the computer? and also A larger TB will throw out the TPS and you will need to get your tune adjusted to suit

    tps sensor was replaced and still the same. Car will be fine to drive sometimes but as soon as the diagnostic light on dash comes on it starts buggering up

    What are the actual codes that are coming up?

    This you can check yourself by shorting out pins 5 and 6 on the diagnostic plug under the steering wheel.

    I've never seen those codes before. Does anyone know if the L67 codes are the same as checking them on a traditional 3.8? Or they use the different computer?
