Its automatic activation controlled by the vehicle's computer (ECU) generally prioritizes fuel's efficiency. It is very convenient to have one to drive in cities as there are usually traffic jams there.
My vehicle has now developed what seems to be an extra gear speed between 3rd and 4th gears. It is a 6-speed automatic transmission but changes up gears 7 times. Had diagnostics done however no faults were found.
Has anyone else with the 2.5tdi (5 cylinder) fitted with this transmission specifically experienced this happening to them and if so, what was the Problem and what fix was conducted to remedy this Problem?
