Engine torque

Current air mass/combustion is converted to torque, unit Nm. This information is sent continuously on the bus. TCM uses the information to control the transmission system pressure.

Maximum permissible torque

In order to obtain smoother shifting and minimum transmission wear, TCM continuously sends information on the bus concerning "maximum torque", unit Nm.

As the transmission is designed to withstand a maximum torque of 300 Nm (B207E/L), TCM will normally send bus information "Maximum torque 300 Nm" but for some gear changes, especially during rapid acceleration, TCM will request a lower "Maximum torque" during the brief period that gear changing takes place.

The Trionic system uses the information in its air mass control circuit for torque limitation.
