General notes

Gearbox
♦ The torque of the engine is transmitted via the flywheel to the
dual clutch gearbox. The flywheel and the dual clutch are
joined together by a toothed connection. Together they take
on the function of the dual-mass flywheel.
♦ The gearbox is structured like a 7-speed manual gearbox.
Through opposed hydraulic actuation of two multi-plate dry
clutches, it is operated like an automatic gearbox. In other
words, the gears are engaged automatically or manually via
the Tiptronic system. There is no clutch pedal.
♦ When the ignition is switched off, both clutches are disengag‐
ed.
