How can I get an 03 td5 auto to not slip as much and work so hard all the time. A tuned td5 should have plenty of torque available so why does it not improve?

Is there any mods that can be done with clutches, solenoids etc to get a more direct drive?

Is different oil an option?

Does chipping and bigger intercooler help? Obviously more uumph but will it mak it easier going?

Thanks in advance.

Buy a manual gearbox !!!!!

Clutch slippage is an essential part of an autobox operation, below about 50mph, it you don't like it, change the car:(
 
Yes, I agree! I do not think I am suited to autos. Anyone want to swap an auto for a manual? Mine is an 03 es with 4x TV screens and all the full electric gizmos. DVD player, black leather and all mint condition at 54 k miles.
