2. Preselector gearbox - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preselector_gearbox

   Preselector gearboxes also had faster shift times, could handle greater power outputs and had less mass and could shift under load. [citation needed] A design advantage of many preselector gearboxes is that the friction components are brakes, [4] rather than clutches. This meant that non-rotating brake bands could be used for the parts which ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Preselector_gearbox

   Hi Andy. The reason that I replaced this section with links to the other transmission types is that it potentially confused the reader by implying that the Maxwell and dual-clutch transmissions are considered preselector gearboxes. The section also goes into excessive detail about transmissions which are not preselector gearboxes.

5. Semi-automatic transmission - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semi-automatic_transmission

   A semi-automatic transmission is a multiple-speed transmission where part of its operation is automated (typically the actuation of the clutch), but the driver's input is still required to launch the vehicle from a standstill and to manually change gears.

6. Self-Changing Gears - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-Changing_Gears

   The name Self-Changing Gears is sometimes confusing: the gearboxes are not fully automatic, selection of gear ratio remains a manual choice, but the gear-changing and any clutch control needed is automated. The gearboxes were used in conjunction with a fluid coupling so no clutch pedal was needed.

7. Manual transmission - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_transmission

   The clutch pedal controls the pressure plate (clutch engaged – the clutch pedal is not being pressed) or not connected to the engine (clutch disengaged – the clutch pedal is being pressed down). When the engine is running and the clutch is engaged (i.e., clutch pedal up), the flywheel spins the clutch pressure plate and hence the transmission.
