The '7-speed' is a CVT - the DSG is strictly for low output engines Mooseykins posted:I think they're good overall. Don't know much about the 7-speed DSGs, but never heard anything bad about them. Is this sarcasm or are you being serious?

dissss posted:The '7-speed' is a CVT - the DSG is strictly for low output engines Hmm, not sure about that. The S-Tronic 7-speed is a DSG. The Multitronic is CVT but as far as i know they were only "5/6-speed" with later ones getting some internal shaft/drum modifications and programming to give them a set 6th gear ratio. Also, the DSGs are generally quite strong, although clunky into gear and can take a fair bit of torque. CVTs really can't, and are only found in lower power FWD cars. I think all Quattro Autos were either conventional automatics or DSGs. dissss posted:Is this sarcasm or are you being serious? Serious.. (Referring to the longitudinal DSGs at least. The transverse ones can go gently caress off.) Mooseykins fucked around with this message at 19:49 on Mar 22, 2015 |

The car is too old for that - it'll be the old multitronic which was '7 speed' at that time (8 speed in the next model)

I am so deeply amused that Toyota sourced an asin transmission and made it unreliable. They did the same thing with ZFs by loving with the service intervals. E46 seem to have few transmission issues, b5s, it is a maintence item. Difference between a 60kish fill and ”lifetime.”

CommieGIR posted:Same, I've grown to fond of working on mine, and honestly have not had any real issues with repairing them. I think people just like finding a manufacturer they dislike and kicking them around, although I must admit that I too am guilty of that. I would just tell people, "No, those aren't exhausts, they are missile launchers. I HATE tailgaters."

Yeah calling the hybrid CVT a CVT, whilst accurate in a technical sense, is a bit insulting to the hybrid drive because it lumps it in with actual CVT's which are all terrible. I'd say that 20 series prius is probably the most reliable toyota made during the 00's. Presumably this was because they were so worried about market backlash from hybrids being perceived as unreliable that they went out of their way to build them properly.

Nissan did a completely one off CVT design for their early 2000s large RWDs that was completely incompatible with the fluid used in their FWD models. Using the wrong fluid would completely destroy the transmission (obviously)

When Toyota tries to do something right, they can be amazing. Which separates it from VW (I assume they're trying.).

I genuinely wonder what happens at places that design/manufacture bodykits to end up creating and selling something that looks like that. None of that kits lines work with the car at all... Like this one, where the gently caress are those lines going on the side skirt?  Somebody designed this and someone else OKd it for production. And then someone bought it.

It's because they're using two different companies body kits (C-West front, Veilside sides, can't tell on the rear bumper, might be Veilside?l). Jamming different companies' bodykits doesn't work together.

I'm kind of waiting to see how the iA/iM look that are getting 'revealed' soon. One is going to be the US Toyota Auris, I can't remember which. Definitely going to give that a look. But this is the Terrible thread, not New car thread. I hate how the xB looks on the exterior, but the interior is pretty neat and well laid out.
