Torque Demand

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Mercury Montego and 2005 Ford Five Hundred. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The torque demand downshift occurs (automatically) during part throttle acceleration when the demand for torque is greater than the engine can provide at that gear ratio. If applied, the transmission will disengage the torque converter clutch (TCC) to provide added acceleration.
