Highlights of automatic gearbox 09E
The 6-speed planetary gearbox is based on the
Lepelletier principle.
This concept is characterised by harmonic
gear ratio steps and the implementation of six
forward gears and one reverse gear with only
five selector elements.
Use is made in this gearbox of a new internal
gear oil pump featuring a lower delivery
volume and reduced leakage.
In addition, it was possible to achieve
optimisation of the oil supply with lower
leakage rates in the hydraulic control system.
The "stationary disconnection" function
reduces engine output when the vehicle is
stopped with a gear engaged by interrupting
power transmission.
A particularly noteworthy feature of the 09E
automatic gearbox is the relocation of the
front-axle differential (flange shaft) to in front
of the torque converter.
The distance between flange shaft and engine
flange is now only 61 mm (01L = 164 mm).
