1. Checking operation of selector mechanism |
l
| It should not be possible to operate the starter while the selector lever is in position „S“, „D“, „R“ or in the „tiptronic gate“. |
l
| When travelling at speeds above 5 km/h and shifting into selector lever position „N“, the solenoid for the selector lever lock must not engage and block the selector lever. The selector lever can be shifted into a driving gear. |
l
| When travelling at speeds below 2 km/h (almost stationary) and shifting into selector lever position „N“, the solenoid for the selector lever lock should only engage after about 1 second. The selector lever cannot be shifted out of „N“ position until the brake pedal is depressed. |
Selector lever in position „P“: |
–
| Pull up parking brake button to apply electromechanical parking brake. |
–
| Do not depress brake pedal. |
–
| Briefly press ignition key in ignition lock to reach position „ignition on“. |
–
| Do not depress brake pedal. |
l
| The selector lever is locked and cannot be shifted out of „P“ position, even when the interlock button on the handle is pressed in. Selector lever lock solenoid -N110- blocks selector lever. |
–
| Press and hold brake pedal. |
l
| Selector lever lock solenoid -N110- releases selector lever. It is possible to shift into a driving gear. With interlock button on selector lever handle pressed, shift selector lever slowly from „P“ position through „R, N, D and S“ and check whether the selector lever position display -Y6- in the instrument cluster shows the correct selector lever position in each case. |
Selector lever in position „N“ and ignition switched on: |
–
| Do not depress brake pedal. |
l
| After a short delay: Selector lever is locked and cannot be shifted out of „N“ position even when pressing the interlock button on the selector lever handle. Selector lever lock solenoid -N110- blocks selector lever. |
l
| Selector lever lock solenoid -N110- releases selector lever. Shifting into position „D“ is possible. |
Selector lever in position „D“, ignition switched on: |
–
| Shift selector lever into „tiptronic gate“. |
l
| The illuminated „D“ symbol in the selector lever position display -Y26- should go out and the „+“ and „–“ symbols should light up. |
l
| The selector lever position display -Y6- in the instrument cluster should change from „D“ to „M1“ when the selector lever is moved into the „tiptronic gate“. |
–
| If the specified results are not obtained, perform Guided Fault Finding using vehicle diagnostic tester. |
–
| Check interlock button on selector lever handle → Anchor. |
–
| Check ignition key removal lock. |
2. Checking ignition key removal lock |
–
| Pull up parking brake button to apply electromechanical parking brake. |
–
| Do not depress brake pedal. |
–
| Briefly press ignition key in ignition lock to reach position „ignition on“. |
–
| Press and hold brake pedal. |
l
| When interlock button in selector lever handle is pressed, it should be possible to move selector lever out of position „P“ without „catching“. |
l
| It should not be possible to remove the ignition key when the selector lever is in any position other than „P“. |
–
| Shift selector lever into position „P“. |
l
| It should only be possible to remove ignition key in selector lever position „P“. |
l
| It should not be possible to shift selector lever out of „P“ position with interlock button pressed and foot brake depressed. |
If the ignition key removal lock does not function as described, perform Guided Fault Finding using vehicle diagnostic tester. |
3. Checking interlock button on selector lever handle |
Check that interlock button moves freely: |
l
| Interlock button should move easily when pressed without force. |
l
| Interlock button should spring back fully on its own when released. |
–
| If specified results are not obtained, check that selector lever handle is correctly installed → Chapter. |
–
| Check whether selector lever is bent. |
Press the interlock button on the selector lever handle to move the handle into the positions listed below; it should not be possible to move the selector lever into these positions unless the interlock button is pressed. |
t
| „P“ to „R“ (also depress brake pedal) |
t
| „N“ to „R“ (brake pedal also has to be depressed after a short delay when vehicle is stationary) |
–
| If specified results are not obtained, check that selector lever handle is correctly installed → Chapter. |
–
| Perform Guided Fault Finding on vehicle diagnostic tester and check selector lever lock solenoid -N110-. |
