What is the normal clearance for Volkswagen's dry dual-clutch transmission?
2 Answers
Volkswagen's dual-clutch transmission clearance is between 1.4 and 1.8. Below is relevant information about Volkswagen: Volkswagen Phaeton: It is the top luxury sedan produced by Volkswagen, officially launched in 2002. A perfect combination of classic craftsmanship and modern cutting-edge technology, unparalleled safety, and impressive attention to detail. Its understated exterior design not only embodies the timeless essence of the model but also sets a new benchmark for luxury sedans. Volkswagen Audi: The mid-cycle facelift of the Audi A3 introduces a more stylish and sporty new family look, similar to the front-end design of the Audi A4L. It features a hexagonal grille with chrome accents and pronounced muscle lines on the hood, highlighting the vehicle's sense of power. The new headlights adopt an 'L-shaped' design, and the advanced matrix LED headlights can be adjusted in multiple stages based on road conditions and weather.
Last time I took my Golf 7 for repairs, I specifically asked the technician. He said the normal clearance for dry dual-clutch friction plates is usually between 1.5 to 2.5 mm. If it exceeds 3 mm, you're likely to hear a 'clicking' sound during low-speed gear shifts, especially noticeable when switching between first and second gears in traffic jams. Here's a simple self-check method: after cold starting the car, put it in D gear while holding the brake - if the tachometer needle vibrates significantly more than when the car was new, the clearance is probably excessive. This type of dual-clutch transmission particularly suffers from prolonged semi-engagement in stop-and-go traffic. My neighbor's Lavida with 80,000 km on it ended up spending over 3,000 yuan to replace the clutch plates due to excessive clearance.
