Rev Match Does Not Rev High Enough

[GrabberGundam]

Is anyone else having this issue?

Example. When downshifting from 4th to 3rd the rev match does not rev high enough for a seamless transition. The engine speed needed is about 6k but the computer will only rev to 5k. This is at about 75 mph

Another example. Downshifting from 3rd to 2nd at 60 mph also does NOT provide a seamless transition.

In both scenarios I am still having to manually blip the throttle to ensure a seamless transition but only at those speeds mentioned. It’s quite tedious to have to second guess if a rev-matched downshift will provide a seamless shift or am I too high of an engine speed for the computer to compensate.

Please, I’m going crazy over here. I had a 2019 GT that had NO issue downshifting and having the computer provided a seamless shift.

Interesting issue I've never observed myself, except on a few rare instances where I was clutching out too fast.

Have you tried giving it an extra quarter second before pulling your foot back up?

It could also be the computer expecting you're going to brake, and pre-emptively compensating for a loss of speed that never actually happens.

Mine seems to be the opposite. It feels like sometimes I am letting out the clutch too late and miss the match.
I am considering turning off the auto blip and trying to rev match on my own.

Never thought I would use the rev match feature after 55 years of driving manuals, so I must be getting lazy, but I really love it. Perfect rev match every time.

always the correct answer. If the computer is better than you, it just means you need more practice.

Thanks horned -toad.

My only complaint so far has been rev hang on 1st to 2nd shift. Every other gear it drops to the needed RPM instantly every time. But going to second is a legitimate second and a half or so? Either have to slip it, or move a good bit slower or it's a pretty rough shift, which is unfortunate as this would generally be the shift you do the quickest even in stop and go traffic.

Otherwise all other rev match gears work great and instantaneous.

sounds like a simple fix for a savvy tuner.
oh wait....

Most definitely considering all the other gears work as intended. And seems it can kinda be all over the board for how well it works.

Tuner not required. Toggle off.

Why didn't we think of that?! In a topic about rev match, talking about rev match issues.

Out of curiosity, when coasting in neutral and you remove your foot from the accelerator and you tap the gate for second what rpms does it show?

toggle WHAT off to disable the crazy rev hang?

that might work, but it just points to Ford RevM being shite or having certain unhelpful failure modes. I don't use RevM because my god-given right ankle works plenty good to blip throttle.

I despise gratuitous 'aids' which some programmer used to justify his existence, and then balled it up.
