Zusammenfassung:A vehicle powershift transmission has a lube oil passage which communicates lube oil to a clutch pack. Communication of lube oil is controlled as a function of the engagement state of the clutch pack. The hydraulic control pressure required to initially engage the clutch pack is determined or calibrated by a method wherein the lube oil pressure is monitored while the clutch control pressure is gradually increased. When the lube oil pressure reaches a certain level corresponding to clutch pack engagement, the current value of the control pressure is saved as the calibration pressure.
