Is an Automatic Clutch Considered an Automatic Transmission?
1 Answers
An automatic clutch is part of an automatic transmission. In an automatic transmission vehicle, the driver does not need to manually shift gears; the vehicle automatically selects the appropriate gear based on driving speed and traffic conditions. The correct method to start an automatic transmission car is: 1. Turn on the power, then start the car; 2. After ignition, press the brake, shift to D gear, release the handbrake, and gently press the accelerator to start; 3. After starting, accelerate appropriately according to road conditions. The functions of the clutch are: 1. Gradually increase the driving force of the car to ensure a smooth start; 2. Temporarily separate the engine and transmission for gear shifting; 3. Prevent overload of the transmission system; 4. Reduce torsional vibration impact from the engine and prolong the service life of transmission gears.
