DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
TFT sensor Overdrive switch
The TFT sensor is located in the oil pan on the
main control body and is part of the transmission
wiring harness.
It measures the current transmission fluid
temperature and sends the signal to the
transmission control unit.
The transmission control unit uses this signal for:
Cold start mode,
Engagement of the TCC,
Shift timing adaptation during upshifts,
' , Shift timing adaptation during shifts from 3rd to
4th gear,
Shift timing adaptation during shifts from 4th to
3rd gear,
Overheating protection mode.
Consequences of signal failure:
NoTCC,
no shift timing adaptation,
no 4th gear. The overdrive switch
is located on the selector
lever.
It allows the driver to suppress or enable gearshifts
into 4th gear when
"D" is selected.
The signal from the overdrive switch is transmitted
to the transmission control unit.
When gearshifts into 4th gear are suppressed, the
transmission control unit sends a corresponding
signal via the CAN
databus to the instrument
cluster. The instrument cluster then actuates the
overdrive indicator lamp.
Consequences of signal failure:
no suppression of gearshifts into 4th gear.

DESCRIPTION AND
OPEMION
Driver's side door ajar switch
The door ajar switch is located in the door lock on
the driver's side.
When the door is closed a ground connection is
signalled to the transmission control unit.
When the door is opened this ground connection
is interrupted.
The transmission control unit uses the signal from
the driver's side door ajar switch to warn the driver
if the selector lever is not in position
"P" and the
driver's door is open.
In this case the transmission control unit transmits
the warning tone request via the CAN
databus to
the instrument cluster.
The instrument cluster passes this request on to
the GEM, which then generates a warning tone.
Consequences of signal failure:
no warning tone request.

Main regulating valve
Item Description
I 1 I Main regulating valve I
The main regulating valve is a proportional valve
which converts the applied electric current into a
proportional hydraulic pressure.
The currentless state corresponds to maximum
pressure.
/
The main regulating valve is used to determine the
main line pressure and therefore the actuating
pressure for the clutches and brakes.
Consequences of signal failure:
hydraulic emergency running mode.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

1 2 I Adjusting ring (ramp ring) I
1 3 1 Spring I
1 4 1 Sensing Belleville washer I
r5 1 Main Belleville washer I
A conventional clutch responds to clutch wear with
an increase in the release force, which ultimately
has to be delivered by the driver to press down the
clutch pedal.
This increase in the release force after clutch wear
is used on the self-adjusting clutch as the key
indicator for adjusting the clutch. The main
distinction to a conventional clutch is that
the main Belleville washer is not riveted in a fixed
-
manner to the cover, but instead is supported by (
a so-called sensing Belleville washer. In addition
an adjusting ring (ramp ring) is used to compensate
the wear of the clutch lining.
The sensing Belleville washer is hooked into the
clutch cover at the outside and, with the inner
tongues, forms the bearing for the main Belleville
washer.
The sensing Belleville washer is designed to deliver
a slightly greater opposing force under normal
conditions than the maximum required release
force.
Item Description
If when the clutch is operated the release force is
less than the opposing force of the sensing
Belleville washer, then the pivot bearing point of
the main Belleville washer remains in the same
position.
If however the release force increases due to lining
wear, then the opposing force of the sensing
Belleville washer is exceeded. If the
opposing force of the sensing Belleville
washer is exceeded, the sensing Belleville washer
and therefore also the main Belleville washer are
displaced towards the flywheel.
This displacement towards the flywheel has the
effect that the release force is reduced again.
Once the release force has dropped to the level of
the opposing force of the sensing Belleville washer
again (equilibrium of forces), the displacement of
the components towards the flywheel stops.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Differential assembly
Item Description
I 1 1 Bearing I
1 2 1 Crown wheel I
1 3 1 Differential assembly I
4 Sender wheel - Vehicle Speed Sensor
I I (VSS)
The differential assembly is built into the
transmission housing.
The drive torque is transmitted to the differential
by the crown wheel which is bolted to it. The differential
assembly contains differential
pinion gears mounted on a spindle and the axle
halfshaft pinion gears which connect to the front
wheel axle halfshafts through helical gearing.
The axle halfshaft pinion gears can revolve around
the differential pinion gears when the road wheel
speeds are different
(e.g when cornering).
On vehicles without Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
a VSS detects the speed of the differential
assembly at the VSS sender wheel.
On vehicles with ABS the VSS sender wheel is
also installed. The VSS is however not installed in
this case. A plug with an O-ring closes the
corresponding bore instead.

The selector cable is moved in an axial direction
when a gear is selected with the gear lever. In the
internal gearshift mechanism, this axial movement
translates into the selection of the shift slot.
The shift cable is also moved in an axial direction
when a gear is selected with the gear lever. In the
internal gearshift mechanism, this axial movement
is used to engage the corresponding gear.
The selector cable is marked black and the shift
cable is marked white.
