How to Determine Wear on a Jetta Synchronizer?
1 Answers
When the Jetta synchronizer is worn, shifting gears becomes difficult, which can be used as an indicator. The working principle of a synchronizer is: during gear shifting, the gear on the power output side rotates faster than the gear that is about to be engaged. It is a mechanical device that resolves the inconsistency between engine speed and transmission speed during gear shifting operations. The following are the differences between transmissions with and without synchronizers: 1. Transmission with synchronizer: When starting and shifting gears, a transmission with a synchronizer does not require waiting for the transmission to adjust speed before directly engaging the gear; 2. Transmission without synchronizer: When starting and shifting gears, a transmission without a synchronizer requires waiting for the transmission to adjust speed before the gear can be engaged.
