Jamesc Hypersonic March 31, 2017 Share March 31, 2017 I hate the incessant whine from the CVT. This was a recent Toyota box however. How are the Scooby's? I shall call my MIL CVT from now on. ↡ Advertisement 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stratovarius Turbocharged March 31, 2017 Share March 31, 2017 I hate the incessant whine from the CVT. This was a recent Toyota box however. How are the Scooby's? Being driving the FXT for a month now. Can't really hear any whining sound. Actually the car is pretty quiet. Beyond 0.5bar boost, can faintly hear the turbo spooling. Coming from a MT, I feel that the rubberband feeling is still there. S# mode will minimize the effect. But I've tried a few DCT before and the feeling is quite similar. Maybe it's a safety feature for the e throttle, the first few degree of depressing the gas pedal will not launch the car forward like in a MT.

Fuelsaver Supercharged March 31, 2017 Share March 31, 2017 Actually I'm fine w cvt, cos when chg to manual mode as fast as dct. Also if u accel at peak torque rpm, just feel ur car pickup while u constantly "stick" ur back onto the seat. Depress deeply, cvt may even "kick down" like conventional auto / dct..

Kangadrool Supersonic April 1, 2017 Share April 1, 2017 Very difficult to sextified people lah. Give you uber smooth CVT, you say no kick no acceleration. Give you robotised manual, you say jerkiness. Give you traditional slush box, you say high FC. Give you real manual, you say left leg cramp, cannot drive in stop-start traffic... Only no gear car is the bestest. Give you electric-motor car lor. But you need to bring along many many many AAA batteries lor. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
