FS25 AutoSwitch
AutoSwitch is a companion mod that automates tire pressure and differential locks and makes traction realistic. It makes Variable Tire Pressure, Enhanced Vehicle, MoreRealistic, Mud System Physics and Tractor Terrain Dynamics work together without modifying any of them.
Features
- Tire pressure: with AutoDrive / Courseplay, deflate in the field and inflate on the road. Manual driving supports Automatic or Manual mode. VTP’s automatic re-inflation at 30 km/h is disabled.
- Differentials (Enhanced Vehicle): front + rear lock when wheel slip exceeds an adjustable threshold, unlock at half the threshold, 4WD in the field / 2WD on the road, unlock when turning, and reset on game load.
- Grip (MoreRealistic): grip loss on wet ground with 5 levels, a bonus when differentials are locked, and Use Your Tyres wear taken into account.
- Dual wheels: real width used by Mud System Physics, better grip on wet ground, and a VTP fix for tires with brand variants.
- Dual-wheel racks are available in the shop and the construction menu. Mounting and unmounting is done tire by tire, with 15 in-game minutes per tire, and the tractor is locked during the job.
- Display: recommended speed range and slip percentage next to the speedometer, with a slip warning.
- Sowing: seeding protection, seeder filling with the lid closed, and direct re-sowing on crushed strips.
- Mud: recommended Mud System Physics + TTD settings offered on first launch.
Rear dual-wheel rack

- Price: €4,500
- Placement: rear
Front dual-wheel rack
- Tire: BKT 540/65R30
- Price: €3,500
- Placement: front
Using the dual-wheel racks:
1. Place the rear rack, and the front rack for the front axle, side by side.
2. Park the tractor in the ground rectangle, red, then green once correctly positioned.
3. On foot, stand on the yellow marker, press Right Ctrl + I and confirm.
4. Unmounting: use the same procedure with empty racks; the original tires are put back.
Dual wheels must exist in the same tire brand as the tractor’s tires.
Settings: Settings > General > AutoSwitch.

Known limitations
- Wheel change is single-player only, with a short freeze while the tractor reloads, longer with attached implements.
- A tractor without a dual-wheel configuration in its file cannot receive dual wheels.
