Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2011053229A1] The invention relates to a method and a system for adjusting the mechanical damping or counterforce in a gear lever (1)in a vehicle to the current driving situation, the driver's driving style and / or the way he / she changes gear. The invention is achieved by detecting the current driving situation, the driver's driving style and / or the way he / she changes gear, by calculating on the basis of the current driving situation, the driver's driving style and / or the way he / she changes gear an instantaneous value for a mechanical damping / counterforce(F) desired in the gear lever (1), and by using the calculated instantaneous value as a basis for causing an actuator (11, 20) to exert the desired damping / counterforce(F) in the gear lever (1)and thereby adjusting the damping / counterforce (F) of the gear lever (1) in relation to the current driving situation, the driver's driving style and / or the way he / she changes gear.
