What does it mean when the D gear shows as DS gear?
1 Answers
Automatic transmission DS is usually displayed as D/S, which means switching between D gear or S gear. D gear: D gear is the drive gear, an abbreviation for Drive. When the gear lever is moved to this position, the transmission automatically shifts gears within the engine's speed range, with the shift point determined by engine load, the driver's driving style, and vehicle speed. S gear: S gear is the sport mode of the D gear, providing more powerful output. In this mode, the transmission can shift freely, but the shifting is delayed, keeping the engine at high speeds for a longer time, thereby increasing the vehicle's power.
