What transmission does the Tiguan L use?

1 Answers

The Tiguan L's transmission is manufactured by Aisin. Established in 1969, Aisin is a world-renowned specialist in the research, development, and production of automotive automatic transmissions, holding the top global market share in this sector. The Tiguan L is equipped with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. This type of transmission features seven forward gears and utilizes a wet clutch system. The wet dual-clutch design consists of two multi-plate clutches (one large and one small) mounted coaxially within a sealed hydraulic oil chamber. This configuration offers superior modulation capabilities and higher thermal tolerance, enabling the transmission to handle greater torque. For daily use of the Tiguan L's transmission, pay attention to the following points: Do not delay transmission fluid changes. Prolonged use of old fluid can damage internal components such as bearings and housing; Avoid prolonged coasting in neutral. While some experienced drivers coast in neutral with manual transmissions, doing so with an automatic can cause overheating and rough engagement when shifting back to Drive (D); Never shift into Drive (D) or Reverse (R) before the vehicle comes to a complete stop. Some drivers shift prematurely to demonstrate smooth operation, but this practice severely damages transmission gears and may lead to gear grinding over time; Refrain from frequently climbing steep slopes in Drive (D). Automatic transmissions may overheat under heavy load or shift prematurely, causing power loss. Use manual mode to maintain low gears or sport mode to protect the transmission in such situations; Avoid long-distance towing. If the automatic vehicle breaks down, transport it on a flatbed trailer with the transmission in Neutral (N). Never tow it directly with a rope or similar method.

How long does it take to repaint a section of a car?

It usually takes about a week. Disassembly and reassembly take one day, and the preparation work, including priming and base coating, depends on the extent of the damage to the car body, which is the most time-consuming part. If the damage is not severe, this process typically takes three days up until the painting stage. Below is some relevant information: 1. Automotive paint is generally baked-on paint. In car factories, after the frame and body shell are welded (and sometimes manually repaired), the next step is painting. Usually, the first step is applying the primer. The bare car body is dipped into a syrup-like paint tank, then removed and baked to dry the primer. It is then sent to a dust-free workshop where the topcoat is applied using electrostatic spray painting. After that, it is baked at around 200 degrees Celsius. For higher-quality finishes, a layer of clear coat is added. This completes the painting process. 2. There are generally several types of topcoats: standard paint, metallic paint, and pearl paint. Standard paint consists of resin, pigments, and additives. Metallic paint includes aluminum flakes, which give it a shiny appearance. Pearl paint incorporates mica particles. Mica is composed of very thin flakes, which create directional reflections and produce a colorful effect. If metallic paint is combined with a clear coat, the car's finish will look very bright and attractive.

How to Replace the Camshaft Oil Seal on a Chevrolet Cruze?

The method for replacing the Camshaft oil seal on a Chevrolet Cruze is as follows: 1. First, rotate the crankshaft pulley to the position of the first cylinder. There is a small dot on the crankshaft pulley that should align with the longest protruding strip on the front oil seal housing. Maintain this position, then install the rear crankshaft oil seal. Note that there is a small dot on the rear crankshaft oil seal housing that should align with an empty point on the pulley when installing it onto the crankshaft. 2. The crankshaft seal is located inside the crankshaft pulley, and the rear crankshaft oil seal is situated at the flywheel inside the connection between the engine and the transmission. 3. After assembling the crankshaft into the cylinder block, install the main bearing cap. Before installing the rear main bearing cap, apply sealant to the rear part of the mating surface, then tighten according to the specified torque. The tightening torque for the main bearing cap bolts must be followed. 4. After assembling the crankshaft, when installing the rear crankshaft oil seal, use a specialized tool—the crankshaft thick oil seal press tool—to press the rear oil seal from the rear end of the crankshaft. 5. During the pressing process of the oil seal, ensure that the oil seal remains level at all times.

What Could Be the Reason When a Car Fails to Start?

There are 5 possible reasons why a car fails to start: 1. Car battery is dead or damaged: A dead battery requires jump-starting with another battery or using the universal push-start method. Failure to start may be caused by leaving headlights on for an extended period or an expired battery lifespan. Generally, replacing the battery according to the maintenance manual will resolve the issue. 2. No fuel pressure in the engine's fuel supply line: This situation often occurs on extremely cold mornings, caused by long-term contamination in the fuel line. At very low temperatures, water mixed with debris can block the fuel line, resulting in failure to start. 3. Car lacks antifreeze: Adding water or low-quality antifreeze can cause the entire cooling system to freeze in extremely cold winter conditions, leading to a cracked engine block. This prevents the water pump from functioning, resulting in failure to start and potential damage to other engine components. 4. Excessive carbon buildup in the vehicle: The solution is to frequently drive at highway speeds to reduce carbon deposits. 5. Steering wheel lock engaged: The steering wheel lock is a simple anti-theft feature. When the car is turned off, rotating the steering wheel from its centered position to a certain angle in one direction will activate the lock. Solution: Turn the steering wheel left and right while pressing the engine start button to release tension and unlock the steering wheel.

How Many Turns of the Steering Wheel for Turning?

Here is the relevant introduction on how many turns of the steering wheel are needed when turning: 1. Right turn: one turn of the steering wheel: For a right turn, one turn of the steering wheel is generally sufficient. If it's a large intersection, you may feel the need to turn more during the right turn, but you should stop turning. If it's a small intersection and the angle isn't enough, you can adjust slightly. The angle of the steering wheel for a right turn depends on the size of the intersection—the larger the intersection, the smaller the angle of the steering wheel turn. 2. Left turn: half a turn of the steering wheel: Turning too much at a large intersection may lead you into oncoming traffic. Especially when turning left across two or three lanes, excessive steering in the right lane can interfere with left-turning vehicles in the left lane. The correct method is to turn the steering wheel slightly less than half a turn initially, then adjust if needed until it feels right. Additional Information: Precautions for turning: 1. For a tight turn, turn the steering wheel as much as possible, then gradually straighten it after completing the turn. 2. For a wide turn, turn the steering wheel slowly. 3. Beginners often focus only on what's directly ahead or to one side during a turn, neglecting blind spots, which can lead to hitting the curb or causing a scrape. 4. Always check for obstacles below the rearview mirrors; if necessary, open the door and look before turning.

Which gear should an automatic transmission car be in when warming up?

It is safer to warm up an automatic transmission car in P (Park) gear, as this locks the tires. If in N (Neutral) gear, the car may roll even with the handbrake engaged, especially on uneven ground. Additionally, warming up in N gear results in low gearbox oil pressure, which can damage the gears. Below are the gear positions for an automatic transmission car: 1. P - Parking gear: After the car stops, engaging P gear applies the brakes to prevent movement. Some models feature an independent P gear, known as electronic parking, which functions on the same principle. 2. R - Reverse gear: This gear can only be engaged when the vehicle is stationary. Models with a lock button require pressing the button to switch to this gear. 3. N - Neutral gear: Use this gear for temporary stops, such as at traffic lights, and always engage the handbrake. Avoid using this gear when going downhill. 4. S - Sport gear: The difference between D (Drive) and S (Sport) gears lies in the computer switching different shifting programs. S gear can be engaged at any time without damaging the transmission. It is suitable for overtaking but not for high-speed driving. 5. D - Drive gear: The most commonly used gear. Shifting up or down is controlled via the accelerator. D1 (or L gear), D2, and D3 correspond to manual transmission gears 1 and 2, 3 and 4, and 5 and 6, respectively.
