What Causes the Jerking During Downshifting in an Automatic Transmission?
1 Answers
Automatic transmission downshifting jerking may be due to improper transmission tuning. If the jerking is not caused by inherent tuning issues, it is likely that certain components of the transmission are malfunctioning. Common culprits include faulty shift solenoids, throttle position sensors, vehicle speed sensors, and other sensor abnormalities that can cause TCU logic errors. Below is a relevant introduction: 1. Classification of Automatic Transmissions: Currently, there are four common types: automatic transmissions (AT), continuously variable transmissions (CVT), automated manual transmissions (AMT), and dual-clutch transmissions (DCT). 2. Advantages of Automatic Transmissions: Automatic transmissions can adjust the torque ratio and transmission characteristics based on engine speed and torque conditions. The biggest highlight is their ability to automatically match vehicle speed, ensuring the engine achieves optimal power output under various conditions.
