【 Master Bang online 】 Answer winter shift difficulties!


The weather is getting colder recently


Many owners asked Master Bang


Why do cars have difficulty shifting gears


There is a sense of frustration




Especially those who drive manual gears

Drive to work in the morning

It's hard to shift gears when you're just driving

Especially first gear and reverse gear

The dragging phenomenon is very serious

But after a hot car or after a short distance






why

?


Master Bang told everyone

It's actually very simple





This is because of the cold weather


The car was not warmed up


Transmission fluid viscosity increases with temperature


Cause the gear to run difficult


Can not achieve perfect lubrication effect



Generally speaking

Transmission oil at low temperature

Too viscous

Just like glue to the gears

It's glued together

That's why it's so hard to get in gear



The engine gets hot when driving or behind a hot car


As the engine heats up, the heat is transferred to the gearbox


Then the heat in the gearbox goes up




And once the crankshaft starts spinning


Drive the output shaft to rotate through the clutch


It slowly increases the internal energy of the oil


Stirred by the gears and heated up


Will make the gear more smooth




therefore


If it's hard to get into gear when it's cold


It is recommended that you warm up your car before driving in winter





In addition, let's talk about the automatic model




The automatic is also due to


Transmission fluid viscosity increases


Although the oil pump began to work


But many cars also suffer from a lag in upgear




For example, the vehicle can be automatically upshifted at 2000 RPM


And the cold car just started to reach 3000 RPM


At even higher revs


You're going to be upshifting




This is where we pay attention


Because some friends will push the gas pedal very deep


Eager to rev up the engine to force an automatic upshift






Master Bang told everyone

Don't do that.


If you often let the automatic car step on the accelerator instantly when the car is cold in winter

Zoom up to 3000-4000 RPM to complete automatic upshift

There's no doubt that this will damage the automatic gearbox

Clutch plate and brake plate

Including the slide valve mechanism inside

Cause some unusual wear and tear

It will also shorten the service life of the automatic transmission


So the car automatically

It still needs the original geothermal vehicle to go again

Don't be hasty





According to the above questions, we can judge


The main reason why cars are hard to shift is


Winter temperatures are too low


Resulting in excessive lubricating oil viscosity


Hard to turn


therefore


We need to change the low temperature gear oil in winter first


Especially our friends in the north


It is necessary to consider the minimum service temperature of the gear oil





Master Bang's suggestion


If winter temperatures are particularly low in your area


75W or 75W-90 gear oil is available


To ensure fluidity at low temperatures.




Master Bang Tips

Summary of reasons for the problem of car transmission


Car temperature is low

Transmission fluid is not fully lubricated to the gear meshing surface

At this time, you need a hot car, so that the temperature is suitable


Try first gear when it's not on fire

Good hanging is no problem

It is verifiable that transmission fluid does not cause such a large amount of drag


If you change gears on the move

So there's a mismatch between speed and gear


First and reverse gears

The clutch must be able to disengage completely

Can successfully hang in

(Under the cold condition of cold car, hot car or step on the clutch to stay for 1-2 seconds)
