Multitronic is nothing more than a type of CTV push belt with stepless discs. Increasing the speed of a car with multitronic is very smooth. This is not the case with manual transmission cars and even with cars with hydrodynamic transmission.
Users of multitronic are very enthusiastic, because with the multitronic they do not feel any shifting shocks, but unfortunately problems regularly occur with this type of manual transmission, often resulting in high repair costs.
When this gearbox ECU fails, the PRND S lights will flash on the display instead of just the “D” icon while driving. This is generally your first indication that something is wrong. Once the PRND S lights start flashing, the vehicle is usually forced into fail-safe mode and loses power.
Other common symptoms include a complete loss of reverse and drive, with the transmission unable to move from the P position.
Scanning the vehicle with diagnostic equipment will often reveal a large number of trouble codes related to faulty range, output, and input sensors, along with solenoid and pressure control valve malfunction codes.
