Which Regal Model Uses an Aisin Transmission?
1 Answers
Buick Regal models with a 2.4T displacement all utilize Aisin transmissions. The Buick Regal's 6-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission originates from the German ZF transmission factory, while the models 6T45E and 6T45 are sourced from Japan's Aisin transmission factory. These two transmissions differ in origin and technology. Below is relevant information about transmissions: 1. A transmission is a mechanism used to alter the speed and torque from the engine. It can fix or change the gear ratio between the output and input shafts, also known as a gearbox. The transmission consists of a gear transmission mechanism and a control mechanism, with some vehicles also featuring a power output mechanism. Most transmission mechanisms use ordinary gear drives, while some employ planetary gear systems. Ordinary gear transmission mechanisms typically use sliding gears and synchronizers. 2. Step-type transmissions are the most widely used. They employ gear drives with several fixed gear ratios. Depending on the gear train type, there are fixed-axis transmissions and rotating-axis transmissions. Passenger cars and light to medium-duty trucks usually have 3-5 forward gears and one reverse gear, while heavy-duty trucks with combined transmissions may have more gears. The number of transmission gears refers specifically to the number of forward gears.
