5-speed 01V automatic gearbox
The Audi A4 quattro MJ01 with 5-speed auto-
matic gearbox features a new shift lever gate,
together with a new shifting concept.
The existing selector lever positions, 4,3,2 are
discontinued and are replaced by the "S"
position.
Gearshift positions 4,3,2 have been discontin-
ued as they are hardly ever used in practice.
The DSP (dynamic shift programme) and "tip-
tronic" function have basically rendered them
superfluous.
With the selector lever is in the "S" position, a
sports shift programme provides the relevant
driving dynamics. In position "S", the DSP
also provides for adaptation of the driving set
values to the driving conditions.
The introduction of the "S" programme ena-
bles a significant extension of the useful shift
range between economy and sports.
The "S" programme comprises the following
special features:
– If, during driving with constant accelerator
pedal position, the selector lever is set to
the "S" position, the system always shifts
down, within defined limits.
– In order to achieve a direct driving reaction
in response to accelerator pedal actuation,
the converter clutch is closed during driv-
ing operation, where possible.
– If, in conjunction with the overall gearbox
ratio, 5th gear is designed as overdrive
gear (overdrive, 4+E), only 1st -4th gears
are shifted.
We recommend the multi-function steering
wheel (available as optional extra) with steer-
ing wheel "tiptronic" ("thumb shifting").
