Transmission Fluid And Gear Oil

The 6-speed S tronic dual clutch transmission and the front final drive have a shared transmission fluid fill.

The bevel box has a separate gear oil fill.

Shift Point Changes on Inclines and Declines

An additional gear change map automatically selects the gear changes for gradients depending on the accelerator pedal position and vehicle speed.

• The gear change map for extreme uphill stretches is matched to engine output
• The gear change map for extreme downhill stretches is matched to the braking effect of the engine.
• Direct gear selection via the Tiptronic function also permits utilization of the engine braking effect with a specific gear engaged, for example, on a downhill gradient when towing a trailer.
