5. The suspension crossmember is mounted with the mem-
ber support bushing on the body. The input from the wheel
is first damped by the trailing arm and the bushings of the
lateral arms. It is then further damped by the member
support bushing. This dual anti-vibration construction
provides low vibration and low noise.
In addition, mounting of the differential carrier on this
crossmember decreases the natural frequency of the
crossmember, further damping vibrations.
The lower natural frequency of the crossmember allows
harder adjustment of the support bushing so that the
tendency toward oversteering of the suspension due to
side force, occurring during cornering can be reduced. This,
combined with understeering tendency by middle joint
.displacement described in (3) above, results in totally slight
understeering tendency.
Why this new rear suspension system is classified as a double
wishbone suspension
The new rear suspension is represented below by the diagram
as an aid to understanding its construction.
F-7-,12AOO33!A/ \
12AOO37Point A can rotate about rotary axis B-C and point
Dcan rotate about rotary axis E-C. The triangles ABC
and DEC can rotate like wishbone suspension
arms.When this is compared to an ordinary double
wishbone type suspension, it may be regarded asone with forward points
C, and C2 of the upper and
lower arms located at the same point. Thus, this
new rear suspension system is considered as a
double wishbone suspension system.

21-42AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE - Transaxle Control
ELECTRONIC CONTROL DEVICE
DAMPER CLUTCH CONTROL
The damper clutch is engaged or disengaged
according to the “map” stored in the transaxle
control unit.
This map is composed as the parameters of the
vehicle speed and the degree of throttle opening,
and somewhat approximates, in the main, the
diagram below.
When the control unit detects, as a result of the
signals from the sensor, that both throttle opening
and vehicle speed have reached the damper clutch
activation area, duty control of the damper clutch
control solenoid valve is activated, thereby activat-
ing the damper clutch.
The damper clutch is regulated so that it slips
slightly, although it is
possible to increase the
Damper clutch activation conditions
1. Shift range:
2nd to 4th gear
2. Oil temperature: 60°C (l4oOF) or higher
3. Not a sudden downshift
IOCamount of slippage by duty signals from the control
unit. The control unit functions to calculate the
amount of slippage, and performs duty control so
that the amount becomes close to the target
amount of slippage (as set beforehand).
The relationship between the hydraulic-pressure
circuit and the damper clutch control solenoid valve
is described in the later section concerning the
hydraulic control system; please refer to page
21-59.For detailed information concerning duty ,control,
this is described in the later section concerning the
hydraulic pressure control during shifting; please
