Audi 2003 A8 Technical Features page 47

The mechatronic system integrated into the
gearbox housing is a new development,
combining the hydraulic control unit,
sensors, actuators and electronic gearbox
control unit in a coordinated assembly.
All data exchange with the vehicle periphery
takes place via the drive system CAN, thus
reducing the number of vehicle periphery
interfaces to a minimum (11 pins) and at the
same time enhancing operational reliability.
