ABSTRACT:
A hydraulically-actuated multi-step transmission is adapted to prevent the occurrence of engagement shocks of a direct-coupled or lock-up clutch associated with a torque converter. Downshifting is carried out once with the direct-coupled clutch (8) engaged when the vehicle is slowed toward a stop. This is followed by a further downshift with the accelerator released and the direct-coupled clutch disengaged.
