The "click point" is a position on the accelerator near full throttle. Next time your in your X, floor it past the click point and that will cause the vehicle to downshift. Also, you can feel a little resistance at the "click point". It's also decscribed in the owner's guide.

I checked the owner's manual and it is referenced as a resistance point.

I don't know.... perhaps some other members here can clarify what exactly happens when this proceedure is done.

That would be good to know. When I replaced my seperator system and ICV it took a while to relearn the fueling tables and get the trims right in the absences of massive blowby, etc.

Didn't know that, nice one. I'll try that, do you think I should have done that when I put in the CAI???

I never knew that even existed.

Why does this happen to some X's??? Is this something that we need to do more often or when ever we feel some sort of change in the tranny?? Thanks.

Thanks for the link zerochief!
