Hey guys,
I was cruising about on ebay today and stumbled across this: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/MOMO-steering-wh ... dZViewItem i realise that AUs didnt have tiptronic, but what would those buttons have actually been used for? I imagine something flash on the TE50s and stuff? |

T series were the only au's to have tiptronic automatics

Not like BA's... BA you use the base transmission for everything. With the T series, you select drive normally and use the pads like a paddleshift type of operation

Yup, what jet ute said, slot her in 'D' and then can control gears through pads on the steering wheel

I don't know too much about it, other than to say I've read eslewhere that it's fairly difficult and expensive. |
