Abstract
The hydraulically operated clutch elements of a powershift transmission have hold pressures which are calibrated by determining a parasitic drag time value represent a speed change of a clutch component due to a friction characteristic of the transmission, by calculating a target speed change value from the parasitic drag time valueas, and by deriving the clutch calibration values from the target speed change value.
