How to Use a 7-Speed Dual Clutch Transmission?
1 Answers
7-Speed Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) is used as follows: Start the car, press the brake, shift into N (Neutral) to start, after starting shift into D (Drive), release the brake, and press the accelerator. A 7-speed DCT refers to two sets of manual transmissions, where one transmission manages gears 1, 3, 5, and 7, and the other manages gears 2, 4, and 6, with both automatically alternating in operation. The dual clutch, located between the engine and the transmission, acts as a switch for power transfer from the engine to the transmission. It is a transmission mechanism capable of both transferring and cutting off power, ensuring smooth car starts, reducing impact loads on transmission gears during shifts, and preventing overload in the drivetrain.
