The document discusses common issues with the Audi DL501 7-speed DSG transmission and describes the TVS software package that can optimize shifting behavior.

Common issues include low RPM shifting, incorrect gear selection, delayed response from steering wheel paddles, and knocking when downshifting. Higher mileage vehicles may also experience backlash.

The TVS software package contains optimized shifting programs for D and S modes, elimination of shocky shifting, improved shifting speeds, and does not negatively impact fuel economy.

DL501(0B5) 7-SPEED WITH WET CLUTCH
Models: Audi
A4 / A5 / A6 / A7 / Q5 with Quattro-Drive and 2.0 T(F)SI, 2.0 TDI, 3.0 T(F)SI, 3.0 TDI engine
For S4 / S5 / RS4-V8, we offer a special program (last page)

KNOWN ISSUES AND SYMPTOMS:

For the DL501 these are highly dependent on the model and the engine size.
All types have about the same problems. With most notable symptoms:

• Q5 2.0 TDI: Extremely low rpm gear shifting. (Droning)


• Q5 2.0 TSI: Incorrect gear selected
• All models: Long delay response from the steering wheel shift paddles (except S4/S5)
• All models: Strong jerk when down-shifting from 2nd -> 1st gear
• All models with higher mileage: Knocks when down-shifting
• Flash of the warning light

Software
THE TVS SOFTWARE PACK CONTAINS:

1) Optimized D mode shifting programming


2) Optimized S mode shifting programming (e.g. for trailers)
3) Elimination of shocking shift behaviour
4) Improved shifting speed

The TVS-Software does not have any negative effects on fuel consumption.

For more sporty drivers we can also offer:

• Launch control integration (not delivered ex-works)


• Improved response time of the steering wheel shift paddles
• Clutch pressure to hold up to 800Nm is possible (Unique, worldwide)
• Increased torque limiter

3 SPORT MODE
The majority of the drivers finds that the
DSG in S mode does not drive very well.
The DSG down-shifts too early which causes
a high engine revving noise and also a high
fuel consumption. What we can do for you
is to customize the S mode so that it is less
aggressive or, if you wish, more usable for
pulling a trailer or caravan.
