What is the transmission model of the Sagitar?
2 Answers
The transmission model of the Sagitar is a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission (DSG). An automatic transmission, compared to a manual transmission, is a device that can automatically shift gears based on the vehicle's speed and engine RPM. It mainly includes four types: hydraulic automatic transmission, continuously variable transmission (CVT), electronically controlled mechanical automatic transmission, and dual-clutch automatic transmission. In terms of appearance, the Sagitar's overall design leans towards the style of the Jetta. The headlights and front grille are perfectly integrated, giving the front face a more impactful look. The body lines are clear and distinct, adding to the overall sense of stability.
I've been working in an auto repair shop for several years, and the transmission models for the Sagitar are quite complex. Manual transmissions usually use the MQ200, especially the older 1.6L models which mostly come with this one. Automatic transmissions are more varied. In recent years, many 1.4T models use the DQ200 dry dual-clutch transmission, which is also common on the Lavida and Bora. But be aware that the high-power 2.0T versions might use the DQ381, which has less noticeable jerking. Last week, I just repaired a 2020 Sagitar, and the VIN check showed it was a DQ200. I recommend checking the stamped number on the transmission housing directly or referring to the repair manual for the most accurate information. Getting the model wrong means you won’t even buy the correct parts.
