Is the dual-clutch transmission in the Lamando dry or wet?
1 Answers
Except for the 330TSI (1.8T) and Lamando GTS models which use wet dual-clutch transmissions, all other Lamando dual-clutch models employ dry dual-clutch transmissions. Below is an introduction to the dry dual-clutch transmission in the Volkswagen Lamando: 1. The dry dual-clutch transmission uses air as the connection medium between the driving and driven discs, and the clutch plates are in direct contact with the engine flywheel, resulting in poor heat dissipation. In urban driving, the transmission may fail due to overheating. 2. Compared to wet dual-clutch transmissions, the dry dual-clutch transmission has a simpler structure, naturally lower manufacturing costs, and higher power transmission efficiency. The heat dissipation and wear issues of dry dual-clutch transmissions have been successfully resolved.
