Introduction
Tiptronic lets you upshift and downshift manually with the automatic
transmission. When Tiptronic mode is used, the transmission stays
in the current gear and does not upshift or downshift automatically
unless the transmission senses a situation where upshifting or
downshifting is necessary to keep the engine from over- or under-
revving.
Using Tiptronic with the selector lever
Push the selector lever sideways to the right from the D/S position
into the Tiptronic position → .
