Is Low-Speed Jerking in CVT Transmissions Normal?

[Jasper]

Low-speed jerking in CVT transmissions is a normal phenomenon. When the vehicle jerks at low speeds, it is caused by the impact force generated by the internal components of the transmission during inertial movement. There is no need to worry about jerking in CVT transmissions as long as the vehicle is properly maintained and used normally. Introduction to CVT Transmissions: CVT, which stands for Continuously Variable Transmission in English, is also a type of automatic transmission. Unlike other AT automatic transmissions that use gears, CVT transmissions can continuously change the transmission ratio to achieve variable speeds. This is done by altering the radii of two pulleys to change the speed ratio. Core Components of CVT Transmissions: From the overall structure of CVT transmissions, it can be understood that the core component is the steel belt. The lifespan of the transmission largely depends on the durability of this belt. Currently, the material commonly used for CVT steel belts is the German Bosch pressure steel belt.
