Why is the Sonata 8 transmission maintenance-free for life?
1 Answers
It is recommended to replace it every 100,000 kilometers. Below is relevant information about transmissions: 1. Main functions: Change the transmission ratio to expand the variation range of driving wheel torque and speed, adapting to frequently changing driving conditions while keeping the engine operating under favorable conditions. With the engine's rotation direction unchanged, the vehicle can only move backward; by using neutral gear, power transmission is interrupted, allowing the engine to start, shift gears, and facilitating transmission shifting or power output. 2. Working principle: Manual transmissions mainly consist of gears and shafts, achieving speed and torque variation through different gear combinations; whereas automatic transmissions (AT) are composed of torque converters, planetary gears, and hydraulic control systems, achieving speed and torque variation through hydraulic transmission and gear combinations.
