I always enjoy reading about transmissions, and this was an interesting article. Our own Clinebarger probably won’t learn much from this, but I certainly did. It’s not an extremely tech-heavy piece or anything, but it provides enough surface detail.
I know that the ZF 8-speed units that are so ubiquitous these days in so many different applications get a lot of attention both in the automotive press as well as here on this forum.
One of the things that interests me the most is the different methods that different manufacturers choose, in order to meet the same or similar design and performance requirements.
I‘d be interested to learn how this new generation of Ford/GM jointly-designed 10-speed autoboxes differ in design from the ZF 8-speeds, and their advantages/disadvantages.
