      Actually, CVT engages the lock up clutch most of time, engine brake is applied more than the conventional automatic transmission.
      Especially, with Corolla CVT, I can feel the high level of the engine brake during low speed (10-15mph).
      I can even feel the lock up clutch disengage timing.
      Once the lock up clutch is disengaged, car is moving more lightly.
      It feels more like a manual transmission.
      During the highway speed it shows the engine brake effect more than the conventional automatic transmission.

    CVTs are unreliable because they require more frequent maintenance. Additionally, a Corolla with a CVT jolts forward when you step on the gas pedal while the car is idling.

    • @illznik2
      @illznik2 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The new Camry doesn't actually have a CVT, it's just a quirk with the naming scheme. It has an engine and a control motor, and both are connected to a planetary gear system which provides power to the wheels. By spinning the control motor at different speeds, the output from the engine is changed as if it were switching gears. It's an incredibly elegant system which is far less prone to failure than traditional CVTs, cuz all of the complicated moving parts are replaced by a single planetary gear that just spins all day and never shifts or adjusts.

    • @luv2uallday1
      @luv2uallday1 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      i'm sorry but ur 1 year outside of your warranty!! it's unreasonable for them to honor it way outside of that warranty period. Come one. Also, CVT trannies are sensative to fluid changes. if you were late or did not change your transmission fluid at all what do you expect? CVT transmissions burn out easy due to old fluid. Also if you are a heavy food on the gas pedel that kills CVT transmissions as well.
      CVT transmissions are durable only as long as you maintain them. you don't they become expensive paper wieghts. if you haven't already try taking it to a transmission shop for a rebuild. I had CVT rebuilt for $2,700

My newest is a 2019 with the CVT but it’s pretty early to vouche for it yet. I was very hesitant in buying my wife a CVT, but people seem to have a lot of good to say about them. Kinda neat to accelerate but watching the RPMs remain the same. So far, it feels solid
