Summary: | A method and system are provided for shifting a vehicle transmission having several members. Each member is a first, second, or third node of a planetary gear set (of multiple planetary gear sets), or an input, output, or stationary member. A first torque transmitting mechanism is applied to transfer torque between first and second members in a low gear state. In some versions, a second torque transmitting mechanism is applied in the low gear state without substantially transferring torque between third and fourth members, and then the second torque transmitting mechanism is disengaged. A third torque transmitting mechanism is then applied without substantially transferring torque between the third and fourth members in the low gear state. The transmission is upshifted by disengaging the first torque transmitting mechanism, keeping the third torque transmitting mechanism applied, and applying the second torque transmitting mechanism to transfer torque between the third and fourth members. |
