The 7-speed dual clutch gearbox has two separate fluid fillings. One section is filled with gear oil -arrow A-, the other with hydraulic fluid -arrow B-. |
Only the types of gear oil available as a replacement part may be used for the dual clutch gearbox 0AM. Other types of oil will cause malfunctions and/or failure of the gearbox; for part number refer to → Electronic parts catalogue. |
The gear oil level cannot be checked. The correct gear oil level can only be achieved by replacing the gear oil, e.g. if the gearbox is leaking → Chapter „Renewing gear oil“. |
Variation of gear-change points for gradients |
An additional gear-change map automatically selects gear changes for gradients depending on accelerator pedal position and driving speed. |
l
| Gear-change map for extreme uphill gradients is matched to engine output |
l
| Gear-change map for extreme downhill gradients is matched to the braking effect of the engine |
l
| Increased engine braking effect can also be obtained by directly selecting a specific gear via the tiptronic function, e.g. when towing a trailer on downhill gradients |
