What is the difference between AMT and CVT in cars?
1 Answers
The difference between AMT and CVT in cars lies in the transmission method: AMT is an Automated Manual Transmission, which adds a microcomputer-controlled automatic shifting system to a manual transmission; CVT is a Continuously Variable Transmission, using two sets of pulleys for variable speed transmission. The functions of transmission fluid are: 1. Keeping the shifting system clean; 2. Lubricating the transmission device. Signs that transmission fluid needs to be changed include: 1. Vehicle shaking and gear shifting jerking; 2. The dashboard showing a transmission high-temperature warning; 3. The car stalling; 4. Unusual noises. Methods for maintaining the transmission include: 1. Regularly checking the fluid level; 2. Not skipping gears when shifting up; 3. Not forcing the transmission into neutral; 4. Not shortening the idle warm-up time; 5. Avoiding gear grinding when shifting.
