Adaptive Features (AGS): Notes
AGS features were introduced in 1994 with the A5S560Z transmission. AGS control consists of adaptive features that will modify transmission operation according to various factors. See Fig 1
. AGS operation can be influenced by two major functional groups:
- Driver influenced features (influenced by throttle and kickdown input).
- Environmental influences (such as road conditions - icy, traffic etc.).

The driving program selection is not adapted on a long term basis - nor is it stored in the control module memory when the ignition is switched off. It continually changes as the driver of the vehicle changes driving habits.
