The automatic transmission used in the Vios is from Aisin. Here is more information about the Vios: 1. The Vios is a compact car under the Toyota brand, with a wheelbase of 2550 mm and dimensions of 4435 mm in length, 1700 mm in width, and 1490 mm in height. 2. The Vios is equipped with two engines: a 1.3-liter naturally aspirated engine and a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine. 3. The 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine delivers 110 horsepower and a maximum torque of 138 Nm. This engine reaches its maximum power at 6000 rpm and its maximum torque at 4200 rpm. It features multi-point fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. It is paired with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a CVT. 4. The 1.3-liter naturally aspirated engine produces 99 horsepower and a maximum torque of 123 Nm. This engine also reaches its maximum power at 6000 rpm and its maximum torque at 4200 rpm. It is equipped with multi-point fuel injection technology and an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. 5. This engine is matched with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a CVT. The CVT is a relatively simple automatic transmission, consisting of two pulleys and a steel belt inside. The steel belt can move along the pulleys, allowing the transmission to vary gear ratios smoothly. The CVT offers excellent shift smoothness, reliability, and durability.

I've been driving a Vios for almost 10 years, and my current one is a 2018 automatic model. The transmission is indeed from Aisin, which is quite common in Toyota vehicles. Every time I go for maintenance, the mechanics praise Aisin transmissions for their durability and longer oil change intervals. I've never experienced any slipping or unusual noises. The Vios has been using Aisin transmissions for years. From what I've observed, earlier models might have used transmissions from other brands, but in recent years, they've mostly been equipped with Aisin units. If you're buying a used car, I recommend checking the owner's manual or looking for the AISIN logo on the transmission cover—it's usually there. Additionally, Aisin's strict quality control means their transmissions are more fuel-efficient than average, offering smooth driving that's a big plus for daily commuting. In short, choosing a Vios is a safe bet—the transmission is rock solid.

What are the three methods for detecting engine knock?

There are three methods for detecting engine knock: cylinder pressure detection, combustion noise detection, and engine body vibration detection. The following are the specific causes of engine knock: 1. Excessive carbon deposits in the engine combustion chamber: This increases the compression ratio (generating high pressure) and can also create high-temperature hot spots or sparks on the carbon deposit surface, leading to engine knock. 2. Overheating of the engine: Operating in excessively hot environments raises the intake air temperature, or poor engine coolant circulation can cause the engine to overheat and knock. 3. Low fuel octane rating: Higher fuel grades have stronger anti-knock properties. Engines with high compression ratios generate higher combustion chamber pressures, and using fuel with low anti-knock properties can easily lead to knocking.

What is the reason for water leakage from the exhaust pipe in winter?

The reason for water leakage from the exhaust pipe in winter is that complete combustion of gasoline produces water and carbon dioxide. Water exists as vapor in high-temperature environments, but when it encounters the cooler exhaust pipe, the vapor condenses into liquid water. Therefore, it is normal for some cars' exhaust pipes to drip water during winter. The automobile exhaust pipe, also known as the exhaust pipe hose, is installed between the engine exhaust manifold and the muffler, creating a flexible connection for the entire exhaust system. It serves to reduce vibration and noise, facilitate installation, and extend the lifespan of the exhaust muffler system. Automobile exhaust pipes are mainly used in light vehicles, mini vehicles, and buses. Their structure consists of a double-layer corrugated pipe covered with a steel wire mesh sleeve and clamping rings on both straight ends. To enhance noise reduction, the corrugated pipe may include an expansion joint or mesh sleeve inside.

What Causes Jerking When Downshifting?

Here are the specific reasons for jerking when downshifting: 1. Engine oil passage blockage: The combustion of fuel is determined by the engine's ignition, intake, and fuel injectors, which are the power source of the engine. If the intake volume decreases, ignition weakens, or less fuel is injected, power will be insufficient, leading to a jerking sensation. 2. Dirty transmission fluid: This can cause damage to the solenoid valve. If sludge in the transmission fluid circulates and blocks the oil passages in the valve body, jerking issues will arise. Over time, this can lead to a series of transmission problems such as overheating, impact, and slippage. 3. Break-in period: Slight jerking during driving is normal as the vehicle's power output and component engagement are not at optimal levels. Additionally, the transmission's computer has a self-learning mechanism that continuously adjusts oil pressure for shifting.

Where is Pirelli Tires Produced?

Pirelli Tires are produced by the Naisi Group. Here is an introduction to Pirelli Tires: 1. Introduction: Pirelli Tires was originally a brand under Michelin and was mainly exported before being acquired by China's Naisi International Company. It was known as Vitta abroad and was on the same level as Continental and Michelin. Although Pirelli is not well-known domestically, it has gained the trust and recognition of many customers due to its excellent heritage and solid quality. It is believed that more people will choose Pirelli in the future. 2. Noise: The level of tire noise is relative. However, thanks to Pirelli's technical heritage, which is almost 80% of Michelin's excellent lineage, its tire noise is lower than that of ordinary tires. As a performance modification tire, its cost-performance ratio is comparable to that of Nankang.
