Does a Manual Transmission Have a Gearbox?
1 Answers
Manual transmissions do have a gearbox. The gearbox is a mechanism used to alter the speed and torque from the engine, capable of fixing or changing the gear ratio between the output and input shafts in stages. It can modify the transmission ratio, direction of rotation, and set the neutral position. Types of gearboxes include: 1. Automatic transmission; 2. Semi-automatic transmission; 3. Continuously variable transmission (CVT). Maintenance methods for gearboxes: 1. Regularly check the gearbox oil level; 2. Understand the replacement cycle of gearbox oil; 3. Replace the gearbox oil correctly. The gearbox is not completely sealed, allowing water and dust to enter through air vents, so the transmission requires regular maintenance.
