I think you may be referring to CAG, Computer Aided Gearshift, it was crap 
Hi! My friends lorry was a scania 113 380 from 1993 and it was a test gearbox from scania in it,they called it the new cag!

The 380 itself was a rare beast, first 6 pot with EDC from Scania, that one was probably a one off if it had CAG too 
Volvo had that gearteonic system too never took off either.
Geartronic morphed into I Shift, I played around with a pre production I Shift, which they were still calling Geartronic, it was in a 2000 model FM380, it was a pretty decent little motor as it happens. I was out with one of the Volvo tech blokes, he had a computer hooked up to the lorry and was messing around with it all day long, we spent the whole day trying to make it do it all wrong and it never did
The first CAG was introduced somewhere in 1984 / 1985, I guess. It was for sure on the 2 series.
One of the first of it’s kind. Scania had done that, because the testing bank Scania was using, had such good results. They optimized it for delivering on trucks.
As a spare-part, there was a gearing stick in case of problems.
You had push the clutch pedal on the CAG every time you change gears.
Since the clutch was doing it automaticly (except the first drive off) it was called Opticruise.
thank you for the info wouldnt mind finding one with the cag box in did any of the v8s ave it in ?
