Does Manual Transmission Launch Control Damage the Car?
1 Answers
Manual transmission launch control can damage the car. Here are the details: Reason: Manual transmission launch control is relatively harmful to the car. Vehicles equipped with launch control functionality have limits on the number of times launch control can be used, typically only 7 times per car. Examples: BMW: BMW limits it to 7 times, while the Nissan GTR restricts it to 3 times. Porsche 911: The Porsche 911 supports unlimited launch control starts. The reason Porsche can make such a bold claim lies in its developed PDK transmission. The PDK transmission is a wet dual-clutch transmission, structurally no different from a regular dual-clutch transmission.
