What Are the Symptoms of Excessive Differential Clearance?
1 Answers
Excessive differential clearance can cause gear overheating and accelerated wear. The automotive differential is a device designed to adjust the speed difference between the left and right wheels, allowing them to rotate at different speeds (ensuring proper torque distribution). Excessive differential clearance may produce abnormal noises during driving, especially when shifting into forward or reverse gears. Below is an introduction to automotive differentials: 1. The function of the differential is to allow the left and right wheels to rotate at different speeds when the vehicle turns or drives on uneven roads, ensuring that both driving wheels perform rolling motion. It is a device designed to adjust the speed difference between the left and right wheels. 2. Types of differentials include: gear-type, anti-slip, twin-worm, central, LSD, and Torsen differentials.
