How is the SAIC dry dual-clutch transmission?
1 Answers
SAIC's dry dual-clutch technology is quite mature, but there are some minor issues. The SAIC dry dual-clutch transmission may experience severe overheating when frequently shifting between first and second gears in traffic jams. The driving techniques for dry dual-clutch transmissions are as follows: 1. Light throttle and gentle start: The gentle start is because the original design allows the dual-clutch to output maximum torque in second gear, while first gear lacks sufficient power. Therefore, you should wait until the throttle smoothly transitions to second gear before pressing the accelerator further. 2. Shift to neutral when parking: The principle of the dual-clutch is similar to that of a manual transmission. When parking, the clutch is not completely disengaged. Due to the purely mechanical connection principle, when the brake is pressed for a long time with the gear engaged, the energy has nowhere to go, causing some wear on the clutch disc.
