Does Aggressive Driving Cause Significant Damage to the Transmission?
1 Answers
Aggressive driving causes significant damage to the transmission, leading to jerky gear shifts, especially in DCT transmissions, where noticeable degradation can occur. In severe cases, it may result in delayed shifting issues. Below are the damages aggressive driving can cause to other vehicle components: Engine Damage: During aggressive driving, the engine receives a high volume of air and fuel, causing intense combustion in the cylinders. The crankshaft outputs higher torque, increasing the load on internal engine components, which can shorten the engine's lifespan. Tire Damage: Aggressive driving can cause tire slippage, leading to high-friction sliding between the tires and the road surface. This accelerates tire wear, and vehicles frequently subjected to aggressive driving may also experience uneven tire wear.
