that best suits your lifestyle glossary anti-lock braking system abs when braking wheel speed sensors measure the road wheel speed and should one or more wheels start to lock the abs system reduces brake pressure to that wheel this prevents the wheels from locking during heavy or emergency braking enabling the vehicle to remain steerable anti-slip regulation asr asr improves driving and steering characteristics by preventing the front wheels from spinning under acceleration when a difference in driving wheel speed is detected i.e when one wheel starts to spin due to differences in road surfaces e.g due to water or dirt the system automatically reduces engine torque asr is a switchable traction control system brake assist during emergency braking brake assist aids the driver by increasing the brake pressure automatically to a level exceeding the locking limit the abs is thus quickly brought into the operating range which enables maximum vehicle deceleration to be achieved direct shift gearbox dsg dsg is a manual gearbox in which the gearshifts are controlled electronically what makes the dsg unique is that it has 2 separate gear sets operated by 2 wet multi-plate clutches the benefit of 2 gear sets and 2 multi-plate wet clutches is that one gear set and clutch is engaged driving the vehicle with the second clutch having already pre-selected the next gear awaiting for power to be transferred as the next gear has already been pre-selected prior to power being applied the gear change only takes 3­4 100ths of a second there is virtually no interruption to power traction or acceleration the dsg also offers tiptronic gear selection and sports mode electronic brake-pressure distribution ebd electronic more sophisticated means of regulating the ratio of front/rear brake pressure settings are varied according to driving and load conditions to ensure each wheel is braked to the optimum extent electronic stabilisation program esp abs and asr traction control systems are integrated into the electronic stabilisation program esp in short esp helps ensure that the vehicle goes where you steer it even in extreme driving conditions the esp system constantly compares the actual movement of the vehicle with pre-determined values and should a situation arise where the vehicle starts to skid esp will apply the brakes to individual wheels and automatically adjust the engine s power output to correct the problem esp prevents the vehicle from losing control when trying to avoid an accident for example it also prevents spinning off on a curve due to either understeer or oversteer 2
