Abstract: A hydrostatic actuator for a motor vehicle includes a housing, a piston, and a seal. The piston has a lateral surface and is arranged within the housing in a longitudinally movable manner. The seal is inserted between the lateral surface and the housing in a fluid-tight manner. The seal has a securing region that rests in a statically sealing manner against a one of the housing or the piston, and a sealing lip region. The sealing lip region includes a first sealing lip for dynamically sealing to the other one of the housing or the piston when pressure in an external space is greater than pressure in an internal space, and a second sealing lip for dynamically sealing to the other one of the housing or the piston when pressure in an external space is less than pressure in an internal space.

Abstract: To improve the safety of automated gearboxes, it is proposed that terminal positions of internal gearshift members and external actuation members be so defined separately from each other that one can recognize whether the engagement of a speed is accompanied by the attainment of a terminal position of an internal gearshift member or an external actuation member. Error analysis is possible in this way. For dual clutch gears, it is additionally proposed that one can, at least in gearshift operations that are critical in terms of safety, disengage on speed of a subgear in a separate procedure, before a new speed of this subgear can be engaged.
