What Transmission Does the GAC Trumpchi GS4 Use?
1 Answers
GAC Trumpchi GS4 uses transmissions from Aisin. Founded in 1969, Aisin is a world-renowned professional developer and manufacturer of automotive automatic transmissions, holding the top global market share in this field. The GAC Trumpchi GS4 is equipped with either a 6-speed automatic manual transmission (AMT) or a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. The AMT essentially adds manual shifting functionality to traditional AT or CVT transmissions, designed to enhance driving pleasure for automatic vehicles. For daily use of the GAC Trumpchi GS4 transmission, pay attention to the following points: Do not delay transmission fluid changes for extended periods. Prolonged intervals can damage internal components like bearings and housings; Avoid prolonged coasting in neutral. While some experienced drivers coast in neutral with manual transmissions, doing so with automatics can cause overheating and rough engagement when shifting back to Drive; Never shift into Drive/Reverse before coming to a complete stop. Some drivers shift prematurely to demonstrate smooth operation, but this severely damages transmission gears and may lead to gear grinding over time; Avoid frequent steep hill climbs in Drive mode. Automatic vehicles may overheat under heavy load or upshift prematurely during steep climbs. Use manual mode to maintain lower gears or sport mode to protect the transmission; Do not tow long distances. When towing a disabled automatic vehicle, use a flatbed tow truck with the transmission in Neutral rather than tow ropes or direct vehicle pulling.
