What Causes the Jerking During Rapid Acceleration in Magotan?
2 Answers
It is recommended to visit a repair shop for spark plug inspection and replacement, as well as carbon deposit checks and cleaning of the intake system and fuel system. Otherwise, the aforementioned phenomenon may occur. 1. Dual-Mass Flywheel: The Magotan is equipped with a dual-mass flywheel, meaning the flywheel consists of two parts. One part is fixed to the engine crankshaft, while the other is connected to the transmission input shaft. A pair of buffer springs is installed between the two parts of the dual-mass flywheel (due to the characteristics of the springs, there is a certain phase difference in angle between the two parts). Its function is to ensure smooth acceleration when starting or rapidly accelerating, avoiding the jerking sensation common in traditional vehicles. 2. Correct Driving Method: After engaging the gear, quickly release the clutch pedal and accelerate evenly. Try to avoid starting the car with the clutch partially engaged. When driving on bumpy or uneven roads, shift to a lower gear and avoid driving for extended periods with the clutch partially engaged.
With years of experience in car repair, I often encounter acceleration hesitation in the Magotan. The main causes are aging spark plugs or faulty ignition coils leading to insufficient ignition. Fuel system issues like carbon buildup in injectors or unstable fuel pump pressure can also disrupt fuel supply. In terms of transmission, the dual-clutch design is prone to problems, and worn clutch plates can cause gear shift hesitation. Additionally, a clogged air filter affects air intake, or a throttle position sensor sending incorrect data to the ECU can be culprits. Carbon deposits are a major trigger, especially accumulating in stop-and-go city driving. It's recommended to first replace spark plugs and clean the fuel system. If no improvement, check transmission fluid and ECU settings. Don't delay; safety comes first to avoid losing control during sudden acceleration.
