    4 TORQUE CONVERTERS — Know the Product and Avoid Grief By Mike Riley Technical Services Director For decades, volumes of technical and product rotary motion theory, information has been generated concerning basically the normal oil transmission and related systems, yet there was little path from the drive to the focus on torque converters. Most of the information that driven coupling member is was available was limited to the transmission and redirected to the drive external controls that operate the converter. member in the same Manufacturing of torque converters and how they Fig 2 direction which helps the function was somewhat of a mystery to many engine turn, hence torque technicians in the field. multiplication.

It must, however, freewheel at out of sheer necessity, much more emphasis on torque higher speeds to avoid acting as a dam or restriction to converter issues up to and including rebuilding standards. normal oil flow, which would prevent the vehicle from going over 25-30 MPH. This is why a stator must be As with transmissions, converters have undergone mounted onto a one-way clutch. many changes over the years to reflect the different operating modes of newer vehicles. These changes Although the torque converter is much more efficient are probably not over.

GENERAL MOTORS, INC., Defendant. CLASS ACTION COMPLAINT AND DEMAND FOR JURY TRIAL Plaintiffs Dennis Duffy, Richard Sullivan, Daniel Baptist, Dennis Speerly, Michael Plafker, John Iasiello, and Benjy Tompkins, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, hereby file suit against the Defendant listed above and allege the following: INTRODUCTION 1. Plaintiffs and class members purchased or leased new and used vehicles manufactured by General Motors (“GM”) between 2015 and 2018. Each of these vehicles is equipped with one of two models of eight-speed automatic transmissions, both manufactured by GM: the GM 8L90 or the 8L45.1 2. These transmissions have a common defect. Drivers attempting to accelerate or decelerate their cars feel a hesitation, followed by a significant shake, shudder, jerk, clunk, or “hard shift” when the vehicle’s automatic transmission changes gears. Said shudder, shake and 1 Vehicles equipped with one of these transmissions (the “Subject Vehicles”) include the 2015-2019 Chevrolet Silverado; the 2017-2019 Chevrolet Colorado; the 2015-2019 Chevrolet Corvette; the 2016-2019 Chevrolet Camaro; the 2015-2019 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV; the 2016-2019 Cadillac ATS, ATS-V, CTS, CT6, and CTS-V; the 2015-2019 GMC Sierra, Yukon, and Yukon XL, and Yukon Denali XL; and the 2017-2019 GMC Canyon.

  • Automobile Engineering
    A Course Material on Automobile Engineering By Mr. T.Manokaran ME,MBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR DEPARTMENT OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING SASURIE COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING VIJAYAMANGALAM – 638 056 Author Page At first I like to submit my sincere thanks to GOD, PARENTS and FRIENDS who have helped and encouraged me to prepare this entire course material for the subject of Automobile Engineering. Automobile Engineering is a vast field encompassing different types of vehicles used for transportation of people and materials. It is very difficult to cover all the aspects of automobile engineering in single notes, because vehicles are being refined and improved day by day. However an attempt is made in this course material to give the maximum possible details of fundamentals of the automobile vehicles. It is always challenging to decide whether historical notes should come before or after the description and interpretation of the state of the art. Arguing for the second alternative is the fact that readers should already have understood the motivations that drive a design decision. We begin this chapter with basis of automobile, and through by the transmissions and steering systems, going on later to describe wheels, tires and braking & suspension systems. This emphasis is solely due to the larger impact that suspensions and steering systems have on vehicle architecture and its consequent evolution; steering systems will be described together with suspensions because these two systems are indissoluble from the point of view of designers. Knowing is not enough, We must apply. Willing is not enough, We must do. ALL the BEST T.Manokaran ME,MBA Assistant Professor Department of Mech.Engg.
