Automobile suspension generally consists of elastic elements, guiding mechanisms, shock absorbers, buffer blocks, and anti-roll bars. The automobile suspension system refers to a connecting structural system between the body, frame, and wheels. The function of the automobile suspension system is to transmit forces and torques acting between the wheels and the frame, buffer the impact force transmitted from uneven road surfaces to the frame or body, and dampen the resulting vibrations to ensure smooth driving. The following are the classifications of suspension systems: 1. According to different control forms, they are divided into passive suspension systems and active suspension systems. 2. According to different automobile guiding mechanisms, they can be divided into independent suspension systems and non-independent suspension systems.

What transmission does the Changan CS55 use?

The transmission brand used in the Changan CS55 is Aisin. Established in 1969, Aisin is a world-renowned professional developer and manufacturer of automotive automatic transmissions, holding the highest market share in the global automotive automatic transmission sector. The Changan CS55 is equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission and an automatic manual transmission. The 6-speed manual transmission includes six forward gears and one reverse gear. Manual transmission vehicles use a manual shift mechanical gearbox to adjust speed, meaning the driver manually moves the gear lever to change the gear meshing position inside the transmission, altering the gear ratio to achieve speed changes. The clutch must be depressed to move the gear lever. When using the Changan CS55's transmission daily, pay attention to the following points: Do not delay changing the transmission oil for too long. Prolonged failure to change the transmission oil can damage internal components such as bearings and the housing. Avoid coasting in neutral for extended periods. While driving manual transmission vehicles, many experienced drivers coast in neutral, but for automatic transmission vehicles, this can cause overheating and a noticeable jolt when shifting back into Drive (D) mode. Never shift into Drive (D) or Reverse (R) before the vehicle comes to a complete stop. Some drivers shift into the opposite gear while the vehicle is still moving to showcase smooth operation, but this can severely damage the transmission gears, leading to gear grinding or other malfunctions over time. Avoid frequently climbing steep slopes in Drive (D) mode. Automatic transmission vehicles can overheat under high loads or shift too early, resulting in insufficient power for climbing. In such cases, use manual mode to lock in lower gears or switch to sport mode to protect the transmission. Do not tow the vehicle over long distances. If an automatic transmission vehicle breaks down, use a flatbed tow truck to move it onto the tow platform while in Neutral (N). Avoid using tow ropes or towing the vehicle directly with another vehicle.
