    Very well explained.

    as a retired engine mechanic, I always wanted to know more about how the transmission worked, other than the basic maintenance knowledge to service them. This video covered that very well. Thank you sir for explaining it to me. I already knew that fluid change @ about 50-70K miles, (viscosity breakdown occurs even in trans oil) filter & pan gasket replacement is essential to keeping the trans running optimally otherwise your engine has to work harder to develop the hydraulic pressure to make those shifts thus costing you more gasoline consumption.

  • @garyha2650

    I'm here because someone asked me why I shift into neutral at stop lights. My answer is better gas mileage, less wasted energy and less wear. Wanted to be prepared in case someone challenges that, with a more detailed explanation. But now having watched this I think I'll just say, it's incredibly complex inside an automatic transmission but essentially you don't have one thing trying to push through fluid something else being held back refusing to move.

    Much respect to all the transmission designer engineers. They must be a genious to create something like this. And every new model has more devices in a very small piece, I remember the first FWD vehicles from GM in 1982 (Citation, Celebrity) their automatic transmission used to be very large and heavy and now, if you compare those with a 2020 automatic FWD car is less than the half part of those automatic transmissions and besides that the new ones have more speeds than the first ones (6 or 8 speeds versus 3 or four in the 80´2). It is amazing, the engineers are really a God mental health persons.

      What's wrong with CVT?

    • @catsspat
      @catsspat 5 років тому

      @@Aashishkebab I actually had a CVT car until early this year. The only reason I bought it was for the EyeSight(TM), which was fantastic by the way. But now that I can have manual transmission + adaptive cruise combo, I had no reason to keep it, so I traded it in.
      As for CVT, I don't mind CVT from technical perspective, but I can't stand them from implementation perspective. The fake ratios completely ruined that Subaru for me, where it could have been 100% smooth, it chose not to be. And that generation still had mechanical problems to boot (slipping), which Subaru knows about, as they offered free 10 year extended warranty on CVT. I have their letter to prove it.
      Also, I'm not sure if it was Subaru CVT specific, but it had some incredibly annoying behavior when I stepped on the accelerator while cruising, say to pass someone. It would rev up the engine, but at the same time, use more power than is provided by the engine to change the gear ratio, so for the next second or so, the car would actually slow down! It was the most annoying thing. I'm so glad I now have an MT car.
      Lastly, I imagine I'd have no problem with Toyota's Hybrid CVT (Planetary Gear 2-Motor CVT), but I don't have any real experience driving one, so I'm not sure.

    • @Aashishkebab
      @Aashishkebab 5 років тому

      @@catsspat IO have a 2012 Outback where they don't do the stupid simulated shifting. I've never had it slow down while increasing the ratio while trying to accelerate. However the power isn't there until it stops increasing the ratio and here's why:
      The transmission is trying to change ratio (go into a "lower gear"), meaning that engine speed must increase. In an automatic or manual this is no issue because you would rev-match before engaging the engine.
      With a CVT, since it is always engaged, the engine resists this due to inertia. It's moving at a slow RPM and energy is needed to increase that.
      Imagine downshifting without rev matching. You'd get a sudden jolt of negative acceleration until the engine spun up to match the transmission. This is essentially what is happening but smoothly and over a longer time.
      It's better than automatics which literally will not do anything while shifting/rev matching.
      It's also why when it decreases the ratio ("upshifts"), it gives a boost of acceleration, even if you're not even pressing on the throttle. An extreme example of this in a manual is dumping the clutch. In this case, the clutch is engaged the entire time, but there is no disengagement to wait for the engine speed to settle down.
      I know about the warranty, I had mine replaced under that (and they put a bad one in after that, and I tried fixing it myself and ruined it and had to buy another one from a scrapyard).
      Maybe you can try a 2010 - 2014 Outback somewhere? It's not programmed perfectly (there are still some quirks that are annoying - for example, it takes into consideration how rapidly you move the pedal), but it acts as a CVT should.

    It's all starting to make sense and this helps a lot. Figuring out how these work requires multiple passes because there's no way that most people will get it on the first pass. There's just too many things going on to get on just one pass. Each pass clears up something not understood on the previous pass. I still need to go over this a few more times till I really it, but this took me over a lot of hurdles. I'm looking to rebuild an auto trans having only rebuilt a manual so far, and those are much, much simpler compared to these and you really have to know how they work before taking them apart. So, thanks!
    And, what a brilliant, weird, convoluted design, but it does make sense eventually. These are basically analog computers, not unlike analog clocks, differentials or centrifugal clutches, constantly adapting based on user and other inputs and sensors and using valves or actuators to do it, with flowcharts very similar to computer software flowcharts.
