Abstract
A system includes a driveline, a user interface, and a control system. The driveline includes an engine, a transmission, and a clutch positioned to selectively couple the engine to the transmission. The user interface is configured to facilitate operator shifting of the transmission. The control system is configured to perform a transmission auto-shift procedure where the control system monitors engine speed of the engine for a period of time following completion of a downshift event with the transmission from a first, higher gear to a second, lower gear, compares the engine speed to at least one speed threshold, and automatically upshifts the transmission from the second, lower gear back to the first, higher gear (i) following expiration of the period of time and/or (ii) in response to the engine speed exceeding the at least one speed threshold during the period of time.
