A vehicular transmission comprises an engine E, a continuously variable transmission CVT and a starting clutch 5. The driving force from the engine E is conveyed through the continuously variable transmission CVT with a speed change to a countershaft 2, and the starting clutch 5 is used to convey this driving force from the countershaft 2 to wheels of a vehicle. The continuously variable transmiss...

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To suppress shift hunting and smoothly control shift by conducting the up-shift of a transmission in such a condition that a traveling resistance estimate after down-shift becomes a value or less obtained by subtracting the prescribed value from a traveling resistance estimate before down-shift. SOLUTION: When the absolute value of a traveling resistance estimate in down-shif...

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent shift hunting during going up an ascending slope, and even when a gradient of the slope is small, surely conduct up-shift to return to OD range by conducting up-shift of a transmission in such a condition that the vehicle speed deviation of an actual vehicle-speed and the target vehicle- speed is the prescribed value or higher. SOLUTION: It is confirmed that whethe...
