Abstract
A method for controlling a vehicle presenting the steps of: verifying, at starting of an internal-combustion engine, whether a memory of calibrations contains the function of transmissibility of a clutch and/or the effective positions of engagement and selection of the gears in a gearchange; sending to the driver, if the memory of calibrations does not contain the function of transmissibility of the clutch and/or the effective positions of engagement and selection of the gears in the gearchange, a signal of start of a first self-calibration step, during which the driver must leave the internal-combustion engine turned on and the vehicle stationary; selecting and engaging a number of times, during the first self-calibration step, all the gears of the gearchange autonomously from the driver for determining the effective positions of engagement and selection of the gears in the gearchange; disengaging and engaging, during the first self-calibration step, the clutch with the gearchange in neutral and autonomously from the driver for determining a point of start of engagement of the clutch; and sending to the driver, at the end of the first self-calibration step, a signal of end of the first self-calibration step.
