What you may experience with your stock DSG software

As with previous generations and other variants of the DSG, ECU Performance Software and engine hardware upgrades resulted in shortcomings in the stock control logic; gear change setpoints, gear shift speeds, limitations in allowed torque through the gearbox, engine rev limitations, and much more; all stemming from the increase in engine output. In Drive-mode, drivers often experience premature upshifts as a result of the stock calibration being aligned with the factory engine output. In Sport-mode, part throttle acceleration held the gears too long, causing an awkward driving experience. In Drive-mode and/or Sport-mode, shift points are often misaligned with peak engine output, costing drivers with imperfect acceleration. And Manual-mode is not a true “manual” mode, as gear changes still occur at redline and engagement of the kickdown button still result in unwanted downshifts.

Why choosing Unitronic Performance Software for your DSG

Utilizing its extensive knowledge of the TCU from its offerings for previous generations and other variants of the direct-shift gearbox, that developed a strong reputation in the market, Unitronic’s Performance Software for the DL501 DSG will deliver a complete night and day driving experience. With two Stages, Stage 1 & 2, Unitronic’s Performance Software for the DL501 DSG is precisely re-calibrated to ensure shift points in Drive-mode and Sport-mode are aligned with increased output and powerband of a Unitronic tuned engine to ensure maximum acceleration, deliver lightning fast gear changes to gain valuable time during acceleration, and raises TCU torque limitations to ensure the TCU does not intervene during acceleration. Unitronic’s Performance Software for the DL501 DSG will allow drivers to feel more connected to the vehicle and will experience a total transformation in the driving experience.

Development begins using its in-house engine dyno housed in an environmentally controlled cell; closely monitoring a plethora of operational data, utilizing industry leading calibration tools and resources. Additional validation and results comparison are completed using its in-house Maha Chassis dyno as a second step of product development. Beta calibrations are then tested in race and street scenarios, using multiple cars throughout the world under various driving conditions. This engine calibration strategy ensures Unitronic Performance Software delivers maximum performance, OEM-like drivability and reliability anywhere in the world. Unitronic Performance Software is only released to its Clients once development is thoroughly completed in accordance to Unitronic’s strict standards.

Optimized Responsiveness and Drivability

Cruising upshifts set point are improved for maximum responsiveness when you require power quickly.

Optimized “D” Mode for a Comfortable Driving Experience

Smoother and predictable shifting to ensure a pleasant ride for your daily commute.

Optimized “S” Mode for Maximum Acceleration

Sport mode features lightning quick gear changing and precisely calibrated shifting points to achieve the fastest acceleration possible when combined with your Unitronic ECU Performance Software.

Optimized “M” Mode for Maximum Acceleration and Kickdowns Removed

Fastest shift possible; up to 3 times faster compared to OEM calibration.

Optimized TCU Performance Software Stages

Unitronic’s Stage 1 TCU Performance Software shift points are optimized to give you the best performance possible out of your OEM software or your Unitronic Stage 1 ECU Performance Software.

Increase Clutch Pressure for Higher Torque Output

Increased clutch pressure to maximized friction force. This results in higher torque capacity without clutch slipping.

Increased Torque Limiter

Ensure TCU does not intervene during acceleration thus reducing engine power output.

Rev Limiter Increased

Review: Saying Goodbye to the CC V6

For all its size and its global reach, Volkswagen is still, in many ways, a deeply human company. There was, for instance, the Bugatti Veyron an ego project if ever there was one. Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford. Not only were these moves all strange, I’m sure that they made VW’s accountants furious. None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as...

More 3.0-Liter TDI Settlement Details Expected by January 31

Volkswagen and the TDI Plaintiff’s Steering Committee were in court today for another status conference following the agreement in principal reached earlier this week. Little new information was given at the conference held before Judge Charles Breyer today, but the court ordered the parties to develop a formal settlement agreement, class action notices, and a class notice plan by January 31, 2017. For now, though, owners still don’t know how much to expect in compensation. Elizabeth Cabraser, lead Counsel for the Plaintiff’s Steering Committee reaffirmed in a statement today that the compensation would be “substantial.” The potential cost to Volkswagen is widely reported to exceed $1 billion, though, with an additional $225 million going into an environmental trust to help offset excess emissions. Buy back offers are still only expected for the oldest 20,000 of the roughly 80,000 VW Group vehicles sold in America with the 3.0-liter TDI engine. Those vehicles are mostly SUVs, like ...
