timing VOLKSWAGEN SCIROCCO 2016 Owners Manual

Selector lever position
Designation Meaning ⇒
0 Park The drive wheels are mechanically locked. Select only when the vehicle is not moving. To change the selector lever position, switch on the ignition (if it is off) and then press the selector lever release button while holding down the brake pedal.
2 Reverse The Reverse gear is engaged. Shift into Reverse only when the vehicle is not moving.
. Neutral Transmission is in Neutral position. No power is transmitted to the wheels and no engine braking is available.
$ Drive (standard driving position) All forward gears shift up and down automatically. The transmission shifts as needed depending on engine load, individual driving style, and vehicle speed.
3 Sport Drive (sport driving position) All forward gears automatically upshift later and downshift earlier than in Drive (D) to take full advantage of the engine's power reserves. The transmission shifts as needed depending on engine load, individual driving style, and vehicle speed. The system will not, however, switch to the highest forward gear.
The timing of the gear shift is determined by the engine load, your individual driving style, and the vehicle speed.
+ Changing gear selection
Switch between Drive (D) and Sport drive (S) by tapping the selector lever once to the rear from gear position D/S . The selector lever always returns to gear position D/S.
It is possible to access Tiptronic selection from gear position D/S when either Drive (D) or Sport drive (S) is active

Automatic Shift Lock (ASL)
The Automatic Shift Lock (ASL) in Park (P) and Neutral (N) prevents drive positions from being engaged inadvertently, which would cause the vehicle to move.
To release the ASL, depress and hold the brake pedal with the ignition switched on. Press the release button on the selector lever at the same time.
The ASL is not engaged if the selector lever is moved quickly through Neutral (N) (e.g., when shifting from Reverse (R) to Drive (D)). This makes it possible to “rock” the vehicle backwards and forwards if it is stuck in snow or mud. The ASL engages automatically if the brake pedal is not depressed and the lever is in Neutral (N) for more than about 1 second and the vehicle is traveling no faster than about 3 mph (5 km/h).
In rare cases, the ASL may not engage on vehicles with a DSG® automated transmission. If this happens, power to the drive wheels will be interrupted to prevent the vehicle from moving unexpectedly. The green indicator light K will blink and a text message will be displayed. To engage the Automatic Shift Lock (ASL):
x Depress and then release the brake pedal. Try to engage the ASL again.
