Gear Ratio 6-Speed AAT/AEL

Hi,

Could the Audi C4 drivers with the 6-speed transmission in this forum please post some speeds along with the corresponding RPMs?
I am only interested in the 6th gear (ARX transmission).

I would find speeds like 80, 100, 130, and 180 km/h interesting.

Is the 5th gear significantly shorter than the 5th gear in a 6-speed transmission (CEP)?
For example, at 150 km/h, I have approximately 3,000 RPM.

THANK YOU!

By the way, my car's engine also runs at 3000 RPM at 150 km/h (according to the speedometer).

Do you have a viscous coupling or a V-belt in the transmission?

Hi,

Audi 100 Avant EZ 5/94 (einer der letzten, Verkabelung für ZV-Pumpe schon vom A6 ), Werte laut Tacho im 6. Gang:
1800 RPM at 100 km/h.
2500 RPM at 140 km/h.

Best regards,
Munch.

Hi,

'Thanks, that's how I calculated it now too.'
That already brings about a significant reduction in noise and energy consumption.
Right now, my 6-speed transmission is being installed - I'm already excited.
Financially, it's probably not something that can be easily reversed, but I'm mainly interested in the aspect of comfort.

hello Markus,
Tell me, what are your first impressions of the 6-speed transmission?
Hi Bastianna,

Hi,

Well, a certain degree of car enthusiasm is a prerequisite to consider such a project worthwhile.
As I mentioned before, the cost of the 6-speed transmission is not insignificant, and the complex installation also requires several hours of work, even in a competent independent workshop.
On the other hand, I was fortunate enough to find a company that was willing to trade my old 5-speed gearbox for a 6-speed one at a reasonable price (!).
Ask your Audi dealer about it – it's guaranteed to make him laugh.
That's all there is to it.

I really *wanted* to do it – because, as someone who drives mostly at 80% throttle, the combination of high speeds at a low engine RPM has always fascinated me.
And it was absolutely worth it: Now, in normal traffic on a North Rhine-Westphalia highway, you can use engine speeds between 1,600 and 3,000 RPM to achieve almost any desired speed in 6th gear: 85 - 170 km/h. On the busier Rhine-Ruhr highways, you can now manage with approximately 2,000 RPM, which equates to 115 km/h.
The maximum speed has decreased slightly; it's now around 205 km/h in 6th gear (but only at 3,600 rpm ). However, it's still relatively quiet in the car. In 5th gear, it would probably go faster, but I don't really care about that.

I can't yet provide an assessment of the driving experience, as I haven't needed to refuel yet. However, I will observe this over several tankfuls before I can offer a reliable evaluation.
