What transmission does the Q5L use?
1 Answers
Audi Q5L uses a transmission provided by Volkswagen. The Volkswagen Group operates 68 wholly-owned and joint venture companies worldwide, with business areas covering automotive R&D, production, sales, logistics, services, auto parts, car rentals, financial services, auto insurance, banking, IT services, and more. The Audi Q5L is equipped with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. The 7-speed dual-clutch transmission features seven forward gears and utilizes a wet clutch design. The wet dual-clutch transmission consists of two multi-plate clutches (one large and one small) mounted coaxially within a sealed hydraulic oil chamber. This wet clutch structure offers superior modulation capability and higher heat tolerance, enabling it to handle greater torque transmission. For the Audi Q5L's transmission in daily use, pay attention to the following points: Do not delay transmission fluid changes for extended periods. Prolonged failure to change transmission fluid can damage internal components such as bearings and housing. Avoid prolonged coasting in neutral. While manual transmission drivers often coast in neutral, doing so in an automatic can cause overheating and create shock when shifting back to D. Never shift to D/R before coming to a complete stop. Some drivers shift directly into reverse while still moving to demonstrate 'smooth' operation, but this severely damages transmission gears and may cause grinding over time. Don't frequently climb steep slopes in D mode. Automatic transmissions may overheat under heavy load or upshift prematurely during steep climbs. Use manual mode to maintain low gears or sport mode to protect the transmission. Never tow long distances. For disabled automatic vehicles, use a flatbed tow truck with the vehicle in N gear rather than tow ropes or direct towing.
