What transmission does the Volkswagen Bora use?
1 Answers
The transmission brand used in the Volkswagen Bora is Aisin. Established in 1969, Aisin is a world-renowned professional developer and manufacturer of automotive automatic transmissions, holding the top global market share in the automotive automatic transmission sector. The Bora is equipped with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, a 5-speed manual transmission, or a 6-speed automatic manual transmission (Tiptronic). The automatic manual transmission is essentially a traditional AT or CVT transmission with added manual shifting functionality. When using the Bora's transmission in daily driving, pay attention to the following points: Do not delay transmission fluid changes for extended periods. Prolonged intervals between fluid changes can damage internal components such as bearings and the transmission housing. Avoid prolonged coasting in neutral. While many experienced drivers coast in neutral when driving manual transmission vehicles, doing so in automatic transmission models can cause overheating and create a noticeable jolt when shifting back to Drive (D). Never shift into Drive (D) or Reverse (R) before the vehicle has come to a complete stop. Some drivers attempt to demonstrate smooth operation by shifting into reverse while still moving forward, which causes significant gear wear and can lead to gear grinding failures over time. Avoid frequently climbing steep slopes in Drive (D). Automatic transmission vehicles may overheat under high loads or upshift prematurely when tackling steep inclines. In such situations, use manual mode to maintain lower gears or engage sport mode to protect the transmission. Do not tow over long distances. If an automatic transmission vehicle breaks down, it should be transported using a flatbed tow truck with the transmission in Neutral (N). Never use tow ropes or attempt to tow the vehicle directly with another vehicle.
