Shift Mechanism
NOTE:
Ensure motor CANNOT be started in driving ranges "2", "3", "4", "D" and "R".
NOTE:
During vehicle speeds above 3 MPH (5 km/h) and shifting into "N", shift lock solenoid must not engage and lock selector lever. Selector lever can be shifted into a driving range. When driving slower than 1.2 MPH (2 km/h) and shifting into "N", shift lock solenoid must only engage after approximately one second. Selector lever can only be shifted out of "N" when brake pedal is depressed.
- Place selector lever in "P" position and turn ignition on. With brake pedal not depressed, selector lever should be locked and not able to be moved from "P" position with depressed button in lever. Shift lock solenoid switch locks selector lever.
- With brake pedal depressed, shift lock solenoid releases selector lever. Selecting driving range must be possible without binding or snagging with button in handle depressed. Move selector lever slowly from "P" to "R, N, D, 4, 3, 2" and check whether driving range position in display of instrument cluster are same.
- Place selector lever in "N" position and turn ignition on. With brake pedal not depressed, selector lever should be locked and not able to be moved from "N" position with depressed button in lever. Shift lock solenoid switch should lock selector lever. With brake pedal depressed, shift lock solenoid should release selector lever. Selecting a driving range should be possible without binding or snagging with button in handle depressed.
- Start engine and let run at idle. Engage parking brake and operate brake pedal. Display of selector lever position in instrument cluster should change during shifting into Tiptronic gate from "PRND432" to "54321".
- Starter must not start with selector lever in positions "2", "3", "4", "D" and "R".
- For speeds exceeding 5 km/h and shifting into selector lever position "N", the shift lock solenoid must not engage to lock the selector lever. Selector lever can be shifted into a driving mode.
- For speeds below 2 km/h (almost standstill) and shifting into selector lever position "N", the shift lock solenoid must only engage after about 1 second. Selector lever can only be shifted out of position "N" with the brake pedal operated.
