How long is the service life of Nanjing Punch CVT transmission?
2 Answers
Nanjing Punch CVT transmission can be used for 300,000 kilometers. Here are the specific details: 1. The structure of CVT transmission is simple. The CVT transmission only has two cone wheels and a steel chain inside. The steel chain of the transmission can move on the cone wheels. However, if the car's transmission fails due to components such as seals, the service life of the transmission may be shortened. 2. The advantages of CVT transmission. The CVT transmission has good fuel economy and can achieve continuously variable transmission within a certain range, allowing the transmission system and engine to achieve the best matching state. The CVT transmission has good power performance, which can fully mobilize the maximum torque of the engine, improving the car's performance by about 7.5% on average.
I've driven several cars with Punch CVT transmissions, and from my experience, they can easily last 150,000 to 200,000 kilometers with normal use. The key is not to skimp on maintenance—I always change the original transmission fluid every 40,000 kilometers, as dirty fluid can cause the steel belt to slip. Avoid flooring the accelerator and revving the engine when starting on a slope to reduce belt wear. If the car overheats in summer traffic, don't turn off the engine immediately after stopping; let the fan run for a while. A friend who drives a taxi followed this method and didn't need a major overhaul until 300,000 kilometers. Remember to change the oil filter on time—if you drive aggressively, the lifespan can be halved.
