A dual-mass flywheel is a commonly used type of flywheel that is designed to minimise torsional vibration being transmitted from a car's engine to the rest of its drivetrain. This vibration causes ...

The Yeti has a dual mass flywheel, DPF and all the other things that cause problems. Better the 1.2 TSI 105 or 1.8 TSI 160.

Dual mass flywheels (DMFs) serve as a crucial component in modern powertrain systems by effectively isolating torsional vibrations. The system comprises two independently rotating masses connected via ...

The dual-mass flywheel was introduced to reduce the vibrations in the driveline, so in that sense the mechanic was right, but unless you’re very sensitive you’re unlikely to be bothered by any ...

The push for sustainability in the transport sector has driven the hybrid and electric revolution, but even conventional petrol-powered vehicles have seen significant fuel economy advancements, ...

The “highly” integrated system incorporates a single electric machine design providing both generator and drive functionality ...

In the first part of this project series we learned of my experiences with a slipping clutch--a problem I was having after only a couple of baseline quarter-mile test runs. The second write-up ...

This is a two-piece flywheel designed to absorb torque from the engine and prevent it from damaging the transmission, and also to reduce vibrations from common rail diesel engines inside the cabin of ...
