Starting Off And Stopping The Vehicle, Function - GF27.10-P-3110KJ

TRANSMISSION 700.4 in MODEL 453.0/3/4 

Function requirements of moving off and stopping the vehicle, general 

General 

When moving off the initial state is the vehicle standstill. When stopping the final state is likewise the vehicle standstill.

The dual clutch transmission control unit (N15/13) recognizes or it can use an evaluation of the following input signals to forecast, whether and when the vehicle is at a standstill or is coming to standstill:

Function sequence 

The moving off and stopping the vehicle function is split up into the following function sequences:

Starting off the vehicle 

Moving off takes place in 1st gear. This maximizes fuel economy. In temporary transmission mode "M" the engine rpm is restricted by the rpm limiter in the ME-SFI [ME] control unit.

Stopping the vehicle 

If the vehicle speed drops noticeably, the dual clutch transmission control unit automatically shifts back, to have the ideal gear engaged and ready for any required acceleration. In temporary transmission mode "M" a downshift is made close to the internal combustion engine's idle speed. It is possible to shift down across several gears. If the vehicle comes to a standstill, 1st gear is engaged.
