DCT Drivelogic question

I know this has been discussed but I just wanted to better understand.

With DCT in automatic Drive mode, does the 1-5 setting essentially change the shift point higher as its incremented?

In Manual mode, does the 1-5 essentially change the clutch engagement/release time for faster shifts..

Thanks

In automatic mode, it changes the shift points and shift speed. In manual mode, it is only changing shift speed.

And also the aggressiveness of the rev matching.

Rev matching is the same for S4,5&6. It does not get more or less aggressive.

I agree seems "snappier" when in S6

I think i read somewhere that the drivelogic also modifies clutch pressure.

I would hazard that the rev-matching becomes more agressive, because the shifts themselves are faster.

2: gentle shifts, gentle revmatch
5: trigger fast shifts, faster rev-matching
