10. FLYWHEEL AND DRIVE PLATE

The dual mass flywheel, or DMF, eliminates excessive transmission gear rattle, reduces gear

change/shift effort, and increases fuel economy. There is a friction ring located between the inner and

outer flywheel that allows the inner and outer flywheel to slip. This feature is designed to alleviate any

damage to the transmission when torque loads exceed the vehicle rating of the transmission. The friction

ring is the weak spot in the system and can wear out if excessive engine torque loads are applied

through it. The system also has a center support bearing that carries the load between the inner and

outer flywheel, and is fitted with damper springs to absorb shocks.

Dual mass flywheel

Drive plate receives the power from the start motor when starting the engine. With this, the drive plate

initially drives the power train system. And, it is connected to the torque converter to transfer the engine

torque to the power train system.
