Abstract

A method for modifying a defined adaptive driving strategy, which is stored in the control system for an automatic transmission of a motor vehicle, for adaptation to another type of driver with a different driving style, consists in that the parameters used for the driving strategy are modified by the other driver, the data for this being input to the transmission electronics via an input unit and an interface with the electronics.
