2. List of Honda transmissions - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Honda_transmissions

   Honda's older transmissions such as the Hondamatic semi-automatic transmission and its successors use traditional, individual gears on parallel axes like a manual transmission, with each gear ratio engaged by a separate hydraulic clutch pack. This design is also noteworthy because it preserves engine braking by eliminating a sprag between first ...

3. Flexplate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexplate

   A flexplate or flex plate is a metal disk that connects the output from an engine to the input of a torque converter in a car equipped with an automatic transmission. [1] It takes the place of the flywheel found in a conventional manual transmission setup.

4. Anti-roll bar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-roll_bar

   The first production car to use a semi-active anti-roll bar was the 1988 Mitsubishi Mirage Cyborg. The 16-valve turbo model's "Dual Mode Suspension" has a dashboard- operated hydraulic actuator built into the front anti-roll bar link, allowing it to toggle between sport and touring modes. [ 5 ]

5. Variable Cylinder Management - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_Cylinder_Management

   Variable Cylinder Management (VCM) is Honda's term for its variable displacement technology, which saves fuel by using the i-VTEC system to disable one bank of cylinders during specific driving conditions—for example, highway driving. The second version of VCM (VCM-2) took this a step further, allowing the engine to go from 6 cylinders, down ...

6. ZF 9HP transmission - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZF_9HP_transmission

   9HP is the trademark name for the ZF Friedrichshafen 9-speed automatic transmission models (9-speed transmission with Hydraulic converter and Planetary gearsets) for transverse engine applications, designed by ZF's subsidiary in Saarbrücken and built in Gray Court, South Carolina. [1] It is used in front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive vehicles.

7. Float shifting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Float_shifting

   Float shifting can reduce clutch wear because it is used so much less (only for starting from a standstill). Conversely, improper engagement of a gear (when the engine and transmission speeds aren't matched) can cause wear on the synchros and lockouts, and damage the gears by physically grinding them together due to a difference in speed.

8. Torsion bar suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsion_bar_suspension

   The most famous American passenger car application of the torsion bar, was the Chrysler system used beginning with all Chrysler products starting with the 1957 model year in cars such as the Imperial Crown series, Chrysler Windsor, DeSoto Firedome, Dodge Coronet and Plymouth Belevedere although Chrysler's "Torsion-Air" suspension was only for ...

9. Parking pawl - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parking_pawl

   The parking pawl locks the transmission's output shaft to the transmission casing by engaging a pawl (a pin) that engages in a notched wheel on the shaft, stopping it (and thus the driven wheels) from rotating. The main components of a parking pawl mechanism are the parking gear, parking pawl, actuator rod, cam collar, cam plate, pivot pin, and ...
