Is the Volkswagen Tharu's Transmission Wet or Dry?
1 Answers
Volkswagen Tharu's transmission is wet. Below is a detailed introduction to the Volkswagen Tharu's transmission: 1. The Tharu is equipped with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The 1.4T model comes with a 7-speed dry dual-clutch, while the 2.0T model features a 7-speed wet dual-clutch. 2. A dual-clutch transmission (DCT) differs from conventional automatic transmission systems. It combines the flexibility of a manual transmission with the comfort of an automatic transmission, while also providing uninterrupted power output. 3. The dual-clutch transmission separates the odd and even gears of a manual transmission onto solid and hollow shafts, adding an extra clutch along with a control solenoid valve box and a micro-electromechanical control system. Its basic mechanical structure includes an additional hollow shaft and clutch compared to a manual transmission. 4. Dual-clutch transmissions are divided into dry and wet types. Both operate on a similar principle, with two clutches taking turns to work. However, the connection medium between the clutch's driving and driven discs differs: dry dual-clutch transmissions use air, while wet dual-clutch transmissions use oil.
