Dynamic gearbox mounts.
Dynamic gearbox mounts are a component
of the optionally available Sport Chrono
Package. This electronically controlled
system minimises the oscillations and

vibrations of the entire drivetrain, especial
-
ly the engine, and combines the benefits that otherwise distinguish hard and soft
gearbox mounting arrangements.
A hard gearbox mounting delivers optimum
dynamic performance because it offers a
high degree of handling precision. Soft
gearbox mounts, on the other hand, mini
-
mise oscillations and vibrations. While
comfort is improved on uneven road
surfaces, this comes at the expense of

dynamic performance.
Dynamic gearbox mounts adapt their
stif fness and damping characteristics to changes in driving st yle and road surface
conditions. This has been achieved by
use of a fluid with magnetic properties in
interaction with an electrically generated
field. For the driver, the results are tangi
-
ble. Handling is perceptibly more stable
under load change conditions and in fast corners. Whenever a less assertive

driving st yle is adopted, the dynamic
gearbox mounts automatically sof ten

to enhance comfort.
The result is uncompromisingly sporty
performance in corners – as well as a
high degree of comfort.
The SPORT or SPORT PLUS but ton
enables you to switch the dynamic gear -
box mounts from ‘Normal’ to ‘Sport ’ or
‘Performance’ mode. In conjunction with
optional PCM, the TFT screen in the right-
hand circular instrument enables you to
view the lateral and longitudinal forces
as they act on the vehicle.
