A dual-clutch transmission includes a hydraulic system for actuating hydraulic cylinders of the clutches and the shifting elements. The hydraulic system has a pressure accumulator providing an accumulated pressure in the hydraulic system, and control valves actuatable by a control unit and respectively arranged in pressure lines routed to the hydraulic cylinders of the clutches to adjust the hydraulic pressure applied to the clutches. Pressure sensors associated with the control unit detect the hydraulic pressure. The control unit activates a pressure reduction mode when detecting a long vehicle downtime, and the accumulated pressure can be reduced in the pressure reduction mode, in which the control unit continuously opens the control valve associated with one clutch. Additionally, the pressure sensor associated with the first clutch together with the control unit is integrated into a control circuit in which the first pressure sensor assumes the detection of the actual accumulated pressure value. |
