What is the model of the Volkswagen Golf transmission?

The transmission brand of the Volkswagen Golf is Aisin. Established in 1969, Aisin is a world-renowned professional developer and manufacturer of automotive automatic transmissions. In the field of automotive automatic transmissions, Aisin's products hold the highest market share globally. The Volkswagen Golf uses a 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission. The manual-automatic transmission is a traditional AT or CVT transmission with added manual shifting functionality. For the Volkswagen Golf's transmission in daily use, the following points should be noted: Do not delay changing the transmission oil for extended periods. Prolonged failure to change the transmission oil can lead to damage to internal components such as bearings and the housing. Avoid prolonged coasting in neutral. While driving manual transmission models, many 'experienced drivers' may coast in neutral, but for automatic transmission models, this can cause overheating and a noticeable jolt when shifting back into D gear. Never shift into D/R gear before the vehicle has come to a complete stop. Many drivers, to showcase 'smooth' operation, shift into reverse gear before the vehicle has fully stopped, which can significantly damage the transmission gears and lead to gear grinding faults over time. Avoid frequently climbing steep slopes in D gear. On steep inclines, automatic transmission vehicles may overheat due to high load or shift prematurely, resulting in insufficient climbing power. In such cases, use manual mode to limit lower gears or switch to sport mode to protect the transmission. Do not tow over long distances. If an automatic transmission vehicle breaks down, use a flatbed tow truck to move the vehicle onto the tow platform while it is in N gear. Avoid using tow ropes or directly towing the vehicle.
