Is AMT an Automatic Transmission?
1 Answers
AMT is an automatic transmission. AMT, which stands for Automated Manual Transmission, operates on the principle of retaining the manual transmission's mechanical structure while adding a computer-controlled automatic operating system to achieve automated gear shifting. The functions of a transmission include: 1. Changing the transmission ratio; 2. Expanding the torque and speed of the driving wheels; 3. Enabling the vehicle to move in reverse; 4. Facilitating gear shifting or power output. Maintenance methods for the transmission: 1. Replace the automatic transmission fluid every 12 months or 20,000 kilometers; 2. Avoid coasting in neutral; 3. Regularly check the fluid level; 4. Avoid skipping gears when upshifting; 5. Do not force the transmission into neutral; 6. Do not shorten the idle warm-up time; 7. Avoid gear grinding when shifting; 8. Clean the transmission; 9. Avoid starting and driving without warming up the vehicle; 10. Perform regular maintenance on the automatic transmission.
