Does a CVT Transmission Require Idling to Warm Up?

[McJulia]

CVT transmissions do not require idling to warm up. The principle of CVT transmissions: The engine's power is transmitted through a steel belt and the grooves of two cone pulleys, from the primary pulley to the secondary pulley, and then through the main reducer to the drive wheels, achieving power transmission. Maintenance methods for the transmission: 1. Regularly check the fluid level; 2. Do not skip gears when shifting up; 3. Do not force the transmission into neutral; 4. Do not shorten the idling warm-up time; 5. Avoid gear grinding when shifting. The functions of the transmission are: 1. To change the transmission ratio and expand the range of torque and speed variations of the drive wheels, adapting to frequently changing driving conditions, allowing the engine to operate under favorable conditions; 2. To enable the vehicle to reverse while the engine's rotation direction remains unchanged; 3. To interrupt power transmission using neutral, allowing the engine to start, idle, and facilitating gear shifts or power output.
