Summary: | The lock-up clutch control apparatus is provided with reference values for operating variations of the accelerator pedal predetermined for respective gear positions. The lock-up clutch control apparatus comprises a tightening permission judgement device 25 for judging whether it is appropriate to permit or prohibit tightening of the lock-up clutch, based on comparison between a reference value and an operating variation at present car conditions. Thereby, the lock-up clutch control apparatus is capable of reflecting the driver's intention to accelerate or reduce the car speed and is capable of enhancing drivability as well. |
