  2. Torque converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_converter

    The transmission fluid will quickly overheat, not to mention the repeated impacts on the stator clutch (next topic). Also, overheating transmission fluid causes it to lose viscosity and damage the transmission. Such abuse can in rare cases cause the torque converter to leak and eventually stop functioning due to lack of fluid.

  3. Automatic transmission fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_transmission_fluid

    Automatic transmission fluid (ATF) is a hydraulic fluid that is essential for the proper functioning of vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions. Usually, it is coloured red or green to differentiate it from motor oil and other fluids in the vehicle.

  4. Fluid coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_coupling

    A fluid coupling cannot develop output torque when the input and output angular velocities are identical. [7] Hence, a fluid coupling cannot achieve 100 percent power transmission efficiency. Due to slippage that will occur in any fluid coupling under load, some power will always be lost in fluid friction and turbulence, and dissipated as heat.

  5. Sudden unintended acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudden_unintended_acceleration

    "Sudden acceleration incidents" (SAI) are defined for the purpose of this report as unintended, unexpected, high-power accelerations from a stationary position or a very low initial speed accompanied by an apparent loss of braking effectiveness. In a typical scenario, the incident begins at the moment of shifting to "Drive" or "Reverse" from ...

  6. DEXRON - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DEXRON

    The original DEXRON (B) fluid, as well as earlier GM transmission fluids, used sperm whale oil as an additive to coat internal transmission parts to prevent corrosion and rust. The U.S. Endangered Species Act banned the import of sperm whale oil, so the DEXRON (B) fluid additive package had to be reformulated. [ 13 ]

  7. Variable force solenoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_force_solenoid

    In the absence of current, this design produces low pressure, so it can also be called a "normally low" solenoid. If magnetic force acts in the same direction as the pressure force, then increasing current will cause a decrease in controlled pressure. This can be called an "inversely proportional" or "normally high" solenoid.

  8. Transmission control unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_Control_Unit

    A transmission control unit (TCU), also known as a transmission control module (TCM), or a gearbox control unit (GCU), is a type of automotive ECU that is used to control electronic automatic transmissions. Similar systems are used in conjunction with various semi-automatic transmissions, purely for clutch automation and actuation.

    The fluid specification for Mercon-ULV (Ultra-Low Viscosity) was introduced on January 2, 2014. ... the automatic transmission fluid needs to be serviced after every ...
