GTR belongs to automatic transmission, with manual mode and paddle shifters on the steering wheel for gear shifting. Here is relevant information about automatic transmission: 1. Automatic Principle: The engine's power is transmitted through the gearbox, which is also a key factor affecting fuel consumption. Generally, automatic transmissions consume 10% more fuel than manual transmissions. Whether manual or automatic, the more gears, the more fuel-efficient. 2. Driving Techniques: For manual transmission cars, higher RPM should be used when shifting up. The engine is designed to operate at higher RPMs, and parameters such as dynamic balance and rotational inertia of various components are also designed with high RPMs in mind. If the engine operates for long periods under non-optimal conditions, internal component load and wear will naturally increase, leading to frequent vibrations and knocking, which can affect the engine's lifespan.

I've always been interested in high-performance cars, and the GT-R indeed features an automatic transmission, utilizing a dual-clutch transmission (DCT), which is essentially an automatic gear-shifting system. It makes driving more effortless, eliminating the need for manual gear changes, as the clutch is computer-controlled, enabling lightning-fast shifts. The GT-R is renowned for its powerful acceleration, such as achieving 0-100 km/h in just around 2.7 seconds, all thanks to this transmission's intelligent power management. Modern sports cars are increasingly adopting automatic transmissions because they balance comfort and performance. If you're driving long distances or in heavy traffic, this design significantly eases the experience; switching to manual mode still allows for the thrill of control. Remember, starting with the R35 generation, automatic transmission became the standard configuration, making the GT-R even more popular in the sports car world.

After driving the GT-R a few times, I experienced how convenient the automatic transmission really is. The car shifts gears very smoothly, with strong acceleration and no lag. It's effortless to drive in the city, and switching to manual mode for drifting on the highway is simple. Unlike some cars with manual transmissions that require more effort, the GT-R's automatic system allows both beginners and veterans to enjoy speed. The automatic transmission also incorporates comfort elements, such as smooth gear changes that reduce the risk of passengers getting carsick. Many friends have asked me if the GT-R is suitable for daily driving, and I say the automatic transmission makes it more versatile—both powerful and practical. If you frequently drive in the city, it will make you fall in love with driving.

As a car enthusiast, I'm familiar with the GT-R's history—it has automatic transmissions. Starting with the R35 generation, it adopted dual-clutch transmissions. Earlier versions had manual options, but modern versions are exclusively automatic. This transition enhanced the GT-R's competitiveness on both the track and in the market. Automatic transmissions allow more drivers to handle this top-tier sports car, balancing speed and convenience.

What are the causes of a lean air-fuel mixture in a sedan?

The causes of a lean air-fuel mixture in a sedan are: 1. Low fuel pump pressure; 2. Excessive carbon buildup or clogged fuel injectors; 3. Faulty intake pressure sensor signal; 4. Inaccurate intake air detection by the sensor leading to insufficient fuel injection; 5. Failure of the oxygen sensor's closed-loop control; 6. Excessive adjustment of the main jet needle causing air passage blockage; 7. Low fuel level in the float chamber; 8. Loose, leaking, or damaged fuel lines, or blockages; 9. Excessive clearance in the fuel pump rocker arm or overly thick gasket between the fuel pump and cylinder block; 10. Poor sealing of the fuel pump valve, diaphragm leakage, or excessively dirty filter causing insufficient fuel supply.
