A drive assembly for adjustment of a motor vehicle closure element, the drive assembly comprising:

• a drivetrain;
• and
• a clutch assembly connected to the drivetrain and provided with,
• an input connection and an output connection, wherein the clutch assembly is configured to transmit movement from the input connection to the output connection,
• a brake assembly including a main braking element configured to produce a main braking action, by means of which the main braking element brakes a movement introduced on the output connection,
• a freewheel assembly configured to engage the main braking element in response to the movement introduced on the output connection and to disengage the main braking element in response to a movement introduce on the input connection, and
• an auxiliary braking element configured to produce a predetermined permanent braking action, by means of which the auxiliary braking element acts on the movement introduced on the output connection, and wherein the predetermined permanent braking action must be overcome so that the freewheel assembly disengages from the main braking element.
