How does the first gear work in a dual clutch transmission?
Tracing a line from the blue clutch on the left, along the input shaft, up onto first gear on the first output shaft, and then continuing along and down onto the transmission output gives you first gear. While this is happening, the computer is deciding which gear you’ll be wanting next.
What causes transmission to shift hard from 1st to 2nd?
Trouble in the Vacuum Lines Transmission shifting hard from 1st to 2 nd could be as a result of an issue in the vehicle vacuum lines. When your car vacuum line is clotted, disconnected, or twisted; this could cause extra pressure to vehicle transmission which makes the gear hard to shift.
