Lifespan of the JETOUR X70 Dry Dual Clutch Transmission?
1 Answers
Under normal driving conditions, there shouldn't be any issues. Just avoid aggressively stepping on the accelerator when going uphill. The same applies for normal starts. Although the dry dual-clutch transmission can pre-engage gears, it's still a mechanical system rather than human-operated. Prolonged improper and aggressive acceleration can burn out the clutch. Currently, Volkswagen's series are the best when it comes to dual-clutch transmissions, as BorgWarner's technology is the most advanced and refined in this field, exclusively used by Volkswagen. The most impressive aspect is that Volkswagen has nearly perfected the ratio and formula between the driving and driven shafts in their mechanical transmissions, thanks to extensive market feedback and R&D efforts. While many criticize it, the effort behind it is undeniable. Other products using BorgWarner's technology fall short by a small margin but miss by a mile, unable to compete. If luck isn't on your side, you might need to replace the entire transmission in two or three years, so be prepared to spend around 20,000 yuan. The 10-year or 200,000-kilometer warranty refers to the engine, not the transmission.
