Drive Train By E&A Auto Repair
The Drivetrain is a system of components—the engine, transmission, drive shafts, geared differentials, and drive axles—
working together to generate power and deliver it to the wheels. We repair all kind of transmissions,drivetrain repair and

If you’ve read the engine overview, then you know how a car gets its power. But how does it transfer that power to the
asphalt and move you down the road? Through the drivetrain.
You might encounter other words like "powertrain" and "driveline." Powertrain refers only to the engine and
transmission. Driveline refers to everything but the engine and transmission.
Universal Joint Replacement Although every car has an engine, not all cars put power to the pavement in the same way. There are four ways power
can be transmitted.
Front-Wheel Drive The drivetrain sits over the front wheels. The transmission and differential are integrated into the transaxle, which is
positioned below the engine. Power flows from the engine through the transaxle and to the drive axles, which connect to
the front wheels.
Rear-Wheel Drive The engine sends power to the transmission, which is connected to the driveshaft. The driveshaft is connected to a rear
differential, which divides the power between the two drive axles connected to the rear wheels.
All-Wheel Drive (AWD) Modern AWD vehicles are highly sophisticated. They send power to all four wheels through computer-controlled traction
systems. However, they lack a transfer case for low-range gearing, as do 4WD vehicles. Some AWD systems don't work
full-time—the system turns on only when one of the two axles loses traction.
4-Wheel Drive (4WD) There are two kinds of 4WD: full-time and part-time. Full-time 4WD has power at all wheels all of the time. A differential
inside the transfer case allows for smooth power distribution. Part-time 4WD allows either 2WD or 4WD. But because
there’s no differential in the transfer case, only 2WD should be used in dry, non-slippery conditions.
Depending on the drive system, several kinds of drivelines can be used. Rear-wheel and 4WD systems often use
driveshafts, which are long, semi-hollow steel tubes with universal joints on either end to enable flexibility. Front-wheel
drive and AWD vehicles use solid-steel drive axles with constant velocity (CV) joints on either end. CV joints are highly
flexible and help connect the transaxle to the wheel. They have big rubber boots that contain copious amounts of
grease, so they are easily identifiable.
The transmission sends power from the engine to the rest of the driveline using a complex set of gears. The
transmission allows the vehicle to move from a standing start to more than 100 mph while keeping engine RPMs within a
fixed range. The transmission also enables both forward and reverse motion without affecting the engine. Transmissions
have evolved a lot over the years, and today there are three general types:
Automatic Transmissions Automatic transmissions automatically select the ideal gear based on accelerator pedal position, vehicle speed, engine
speed, and road conditions. Power from the engine is transmitted through a torque converter, then to the internal gears
that shift automatically using hydraulic pressure from the transmission fluid. Automatic transmissions began with just two
gears, but now there are as many as eight speeds.
Manual Transmissions Manual transmissions give the driver full shifting control. To change gears, the driver presses a clutch pedal, which
disengages the engine from the rest of the drivetrain, and then uses a shifter to change gears. Depressing the clutch
pedal generates hydraulic pressure in the clutch master cylinder, which applies the pressure to the clutch slave cylinder
and disengages the clutch. A clutch cable performs the same function in older cars. The clutch assembly consists of a
clutch disc, a clutch pressure plate, and a clutch release bearing. Since the 1960s, manual transmissions have grown
from three to six speeds.
Semi-Automatic Transmissions Semi-automatic transmissions are relatively new hybrid transmissions that combine the driver control of manuals with the
driving ease of automatics. Although some semi-automatics use a torque converter with electronic manual shifting
buttons, more advanced semi-automatics—from makers such as Audi and Volkswagen—use a clutch disc system for
quicker, crisp-performance shifting.audi repair portland, subaru services portland, vw service portland, portland auto
