Cooling System - SSANGYONG Actyon 2012.12 Manual

2) Cooling System

The transmission cooling system ensures rapid warm-up and constant operating temperature resulting
in reduced fuel consumption and refined shift quality.
It also includes a cooler by-pass within the hydraulic system to allow sufficient cooling and lubrication to
the transmission drivetrain in the event of a blockage in the transmission cooler.
3) Shift Strategy
▶
Gear Shift
Transmission gear change is controlled by the TCU. The TCU receives inputs from various engine and
vehicle sensors to select shift schedules and to control the shift feel and torque converter clutch (TCC)
operation at each gear change
▶
Coastdown
Coastdown downshifts occur at 0% accelerator pedal when the vehicle is coasting down to a stop. To
reduce the shift shock and to improve the shift feeling during downshift, TCU electronically controls the
transmission.
▶
Torque Demand
Torque demand downshifts occur (automatically) when the driver demand for torque is greater than the
engine can provide at that gear ratio. If applied, the transmission will disengage the TCC to provide
added acceleration.
