you’ll gain a comprehensive understanding of how different transmission designs manual, automatic, continuously variable (CVT), and dual-clutch (DCT) operate and why specific OEMs select them for particular vehicle models. The course delves into the mechanical principles, control strategies, and design trade-offs that shape each system
you’ll learn how modern transmissions manage torque and speed through intricate combinations of planetary gear sets, hydraulic controls, clutches, and torque converters. The course explores how electronic control units (ECUs) and sensors have revolutionized gear shifting, improving performance, fuel efficiency, and reliability.
In Performance & Racing Transmissions, you’ll explore how advanced materials, control systems, and gearing technologies push performance to the limit.
n Differentials & Lockers, you’ll learn how power is distributed between wheels and axles to achieve optimal handling, safety, and performance. From the fundamentals of open differentials to advanced limited-slip (LSD) and locking mechanisms
