How to Drive an Automatic Dual-Clutch Transmission?
1 Answers
Automatic dual-clutch transmission starting method is as follows: 1. Press the brake and shift into N gear to start; 2. After starting, shift into D gear, release the brake, and press the accelerator to start the vehicle. 3. The dual-clutch transmission is different from other automatic transmission systems. It is based on a manual transmission but belongs to the automatic transmission category. In addition to the flexibility of a manual transmission and the comfort of an automatic transmission, it also provides uninterrupted power output. Extended information: 1. The dual-clutch automatic transmission (referred to as DCT) is based on a manual transmission. Unlike the manual dual-clutch transmission anatomy diagram [1], the two clutches in DCT are connected to two input shafts. Gear shifting and clutch operations are achieved through an integrated electromechanical module with electronic and hydraulic components, rather than through a clutch pedal operation, similar to a tiptronic hydraulic automatic transmission. 2. The driver can manually shift gears or place the gear lever in fully automatic D mode (comfort mode, shifting at low engine speeds) or S mode (sport mode, shifting at high engine speeds). In this mode, gear shifting is usually achieved by gear and clutch actuators. The two clutches are each connected to different input shafts. If clutch 1 is connected to gears 1, 3, and 5 via a solid shaft, then clutch 2 is connected to gears 2, 4, 6, and reverse via a hollow shaft.
