ZF automatic transmission with double clutch, no torque converters. Has several modes of function. Manual, automatic, sport and supersport. Lanuch control... For more information visit: www.petrolsmell.com This video is property of ZF
I work in ZF, partly even on this gearbox software and it's amazing ❤It can shift really fast and it's almost incomprehensible if you're sitting in a car 👍
How strong is the ZF 6 speed automatic transmission in the Ford Ranger, Jeep Cherokee and Discoverys? Are they reliable enough to tow 3 tonne trailer every day for the life of the vehicle??
If you look at hte 4wd setup from the transmission as it is depicted here, you get a car where the engine&clutch is in front and above the front axle. I don't know if that's desireable from a drivers view...... Better use a longer z axle to put the front axle through the sump or so.... I think that is also the mosty used application, and not this flauwed design.
actually everything is the same. the mechanics are the same but more refined. clocks are more sophisticated than any car mechanics. Now there are sophisticated tools to diagnose even the most complicated electronics/mechanics.
I believe still we know very less about gear and power transmission. I think there are many mechanical and energy loop hole present in this world. I have made cam follower gear. You can find prototype and exact drawing at my youtube channel. It will make you think that there is still lot more we need to know about gear.
As it should be , but not in any Ford .The Shelby would benefit from a slick shifting dual clutch or even the Corvette I really don't know why American companies can't build a quality dual clutch tranny like BMW , or this ZF Just buy one then copy it like the Japanese used to do . Actually any of the Automatics in BMW are much better than any North American , it might be just theprogramming of the shift points and different valve bodies , but the last dodge automatic I drove felt lazy and slow
The girl sounds like a Japanese computer simulation , nice designed tranny though , maybe Nissan will use it in their super car , but I'd like too see it in a Mustang Shelby or Cobra. even a GT , not those crappy slush boxes they put in at Ford these days .Only the Focus has a dual clutch , but I hear they need to iron out some bugs yet .
houssam elhachimii The SLS uses the 7 Speedshift DCT trans, the F12 uses Getrag trans, the GTR uses a borg warner unit. Only cars I know that use the ZF are the Porsches and M4
BS, it "just" requires the knowledge... You still can fix/modify a lot of things, but obviously you can't expect as easy like the design 50 years ago...
I wonder why you spend the time and money to market your transmission, when you do not even to take the time to return my phone calls regarding using your transmission in US applications.
Horrid english by a two pack a day woman...Sounds like an Asian translation. "The formula for more performance is in the detail...:" "Causing straight amazement also amongst experienced sports car drivers" Like a chinese ebay ad.
+Steveo H It was Gretchen Reinhart - a non-maker. She does lots of voice-overs. By the way, "zed" is the CORRECT was to say "z". "Zee" is AMERICA'S version - it came about because of the "Alphabet Song" (a direct copy (theft) of "Good Morning To You") - it needed "z" to rhyme with "v". in most countries, they say it the CORRECT may: "zed". Also, it eliminates the confusion with B, C, D, E, G, P, T, and V. Sort of like "9" is used "niner" by pilots and emergency crews - again, to eliminate that confusion. I hope that helps.

Kinda embarrassing how they can't be bothered to hire a native english speaker. Every adjective is mangled to hell. Also, she can't pronounce words. It's parAmeters not pArameters. Sheesh
