Audi A4L switched to an electronic gear shift in 2020. Manual transmission shifting techniques: When shifting gears, always remember the principle "accelerate before upshifting, decelerate before downshifting." Before upshifting, "rev" the throttle to increase the speed first, and before downshifting, "release" the throttle to reduce the speed first. Before shifting, always depress the clutch pedal fully. Operate the gear lever with light, quick, smooth, and precise movements. Automatic transmission shifting techniques: Currently, some automatic transmission vehicles have gear shift levers with "3" or "2" gears in addition to the D gear. When shifting into "3" or "2" gear, the highest gear is limited to no more than "3" or "2" gear. Therefore, when encountering a long downhill slope, you can switch to "3" or "2" gear based on the slope gradient and speed. This allows you to control the speed through gear limitation and also helps reduce fuel consumption.
