Abstract:
Described herein is a method for reducing noise in a driveline of a motor vehicle, the method including detecting a condition initiating a noise event of the driveline by using one or more sensors on board the vehicle; and controlling, as a function of the detected condition and of a signal of said one or more sensors, an actuation of one or more actuators that govern corresponding devices that can be connected to the driveline and configured for generating a torsional pre-load condition in the driveline itself.
Abstract:
An electro-hydraulic control apparatus for a motor-vehicle transmission having at least five forward gears and one reverse gear, including first, second and third shift forks, each movable in at least one engagement position to engage a respective gear, first, second and third hydraulic actuators each arranged to control the movement of a respective shift fork in the respective at least one engagement position, and a slide valve selectively movable into one of at least three operating positions in each of which the slide valve selects a respective hydraulic actuator, wherein a first operating position is an end-of-travel position and corresponds to the selection of the first hydraulic actuator, and wherein a second operating position is also an end-of-travel position and corresponds to the selection of the second hydraulic actuator.
