What are the main differences between Jeep Renegade gearboxes?
Since its release in 2014, 3 main types of gearbox have been fitted to this model of vehicle.
5- or 6-speed manual gearbox
The driver selects the desired gear using the gearshift. A clutch system (disc and flywheel) connects and disconnects the engine from the transmission. Shifting gears involves matching engine speed to the rotation of the gearbox input shaft. This is when the the synchros come into play and modulate the cadence for smooth gear engagement.
Dual-clutch transmission
Two separate clutches manage even and odd gears. There is no pedal to control gear changes: an electronic electronic control software software. DDCTs are unique in that they can use either dry clutches, which operate in the open air, or wet clutches, which are immersed in an oil bath.
TCT9 and BVA9 automatic transmissions
A torque converter transfers the driving force to the transmission. Gear shifting is controlled by the valve body, itself managed by electronic control software which selects the desired gear according to driving conditions. A planetary systemcomposed of several gears and pinions, multiplies torque and selects the various combinations.
