Manumatic From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search This article needs additional citations for verification. Please help improve this article by adding reliable references. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (October 2009) Transmission types Manual Sequential manual Non-synchronous Automatic Manumatic Semi-automatic Electrohydraulic Dual clutch Saxomat Zeroshift Continuously variable Bicycle gearing Derailleur gears Hub gears v • d • e Manumatic is a portmanteau word, combining the words manual and automatic, that applies to a class of automotive transmissions. Manumatic refers to an automatic transmission that allows convenient driver control of gear selection. This type of transmission was introduced in the final decade of the 20th century. For most of automotive history, automatic transmissions already allowed some control of gear selection using the console or column shifter. Manumatics enhanced this feature by providing either steering wheel mounted paddle shifters or a modified shift lever for more convenient operation. Different car manufacturers have been using a variety of labels for their manumatic transmissions, such as 'Tiptronic', 'Geartronic', 'Touchshift', 'Sporttronic', and others. A manumatic differs from a semi-automatic transmission in its method of power transfer from the engine to the transmission. A manumatic uses a torque converter, like a traditional automatic transmission, while a semi-automatic transmission uses a clutch (or multiple clutches), like a traditional manual transmission. Therefore, a semi-automatic transmission offers a more direct connection between the engine and wheels than a manumatic and is preferred in high performance driving applications. A manumatic is often preferred for street use because its fluid coupling makes it easier for the transmission to consistently perform smooth shifts. Some manumatic and semi-automatic transmissions allow the driver to have full control of gear selection, while many will intervene by shifting automatically at the low end and/or high end of the engine's operating range, depending on throttle position. Manumatics and most semi-automatic transmissions also provide the option of operating in the same manner as a conventional automatic transmission by allowing the transmission's computer to select gear changes.

Many people (erroneously) use the term 'tiptronic' to refer generically to any type of torque converter automatic transmission that incorporates a manual upshift/downshift feature. A tiptronic transmission can operate in the same manner as a conventional type of automatic transmission, but also offers the driver an additional method of manually overriding the automatic shift changes. By moving the shift lever into a second operating plane of the shift gate, equipped with two spring-loaded positions: "upshift" and "downshift", the driver takes over most of the gear shifting decisions, which would ordinarily be performed by the transmission's computer. For example, this allows delayed upshifts for increased acceleration, increased engine braking, gear holding in curves, downshifting before passing, or early upshifting for cruising. On some models, the upshift and downshift operations can also be controlled by push-buttons or "paddle shifters" installed on the steering wheel, with an optional display in the instrument panel indicating the current gear selection. Since adding tiptronic to a (semi-)automatic transmission involves an additional shift gate into the computer and update to the transmission software, it is inexpensive and lightweight to implement. Although tiptronic transmissions allow the driver a certain measure of discrete control, the tiptronic design is implemented using a torque converter like other automatic transmissions. A true tiptronic transmission is not a computer controlled manual transmission (with a conventional clutch), or semi-automatic transmission. Most tiptronic implementations still make some shifts automatically, primarily to protect the engine and transmission. For example, as used by licensee Audi, the five-speed tiptronic will automatically make the upshift from 1 to 2 when moving off from a stop, even when in manual mode;[citation needed] the transmission then waits for the user's upshift command before proceeding from 2 to 3, 3 to 4 and 4 to 5, although the transmission will still upshift if the redline is approached. On deceleration, the transmission will make all downshifts automatically when close to the tick-over or idle speed, to prevent the engine from stalling at too-low an RPM, although the user can accelerate any downshift that would not exceed the redline. Most luxury vehicles with a tiptronic transmission have two fully-automatic modes: the primary mode, identified as "Drive", "Comfort" or similar; and another, usually called "Sport," which delays upshifts higher up the engine rev range (and will also downchange higher up the rev range) for a sportier driving and enhanced engine braking — at the expense of fuel, wear, comfort, and noise. Furthermore, because modern tiptronic-type transmissions use an electronic control unit (ECU), sometimes specifically referred to as the transmission control unit, the transmissions are able to adapt to the user's driving style through "fuzzy logic". Shift points are tailored to the habits of the driver, through an evolutionary process. [edit] Tiptronic S The Tiptronic S is an upgrade to the original Tiptronic, with the ability to adapt to driver's behaviour, and also allows driver to change gears without entering manual mode.[1] In automatic mode, if there is no manual input for a period of eight seconds, the system reverts to automatic mode.[2] It was used as early as 2000 Porsche Boxster.[3] In the Porsche Cayenne, the Tiptronic S was upgraded to six-speed.[4] In the Porsche 911 (997) Turbo, the Tiptronic S model has faster acceleration over manual counterpart.[5][6] [edit] See also Automatic transmission Semi-automatic transmission Dual clutch transmission (DCT) [edit] References ^ http://www.carpages.co.uk/porsche/porsche_technical_highlights_25_10_02.asp?switched=on&echo=655849379 Porsche Technical Highlights ^ Tiptronic S details ^ 2000 PORSCHE BOXSTER ^ MotorBar Road Test: Porsche Cayenne S ^ 911 Turbo Technical Specs ^ Porsche 997 Turbo v • d • e Powertrain Part of the Automobile series Hybrid powertrains Hybrid vehicle drivetrain Transmission Automatic transmission • Clutch • Continuously variable transmission • Differential • Direct-Shift Gearbox • Drive shaft • Dual clutch transmission • Easytronic • Electrohydraulic manual transmission • Electrorheological clutch • Epicyclic gearing • Fluid coupling • Gear stick • Hydramatic • Limited slip differential • Locking differential • Manual transmission • Manumatic • multitronic • Parking pawl • Roto Hydramatic • Saxomat • Semi-automatic transmission • Super Turbine 300 • Torque converter • Transaxle • Transmission control unit • Turbo-Hydramatic • Universal joint • Zeroshift Suspension Anti-roll bar (sway bar) • Axle • Axle track • Beam axle • Camber angle • Car handling • Coil spring • De Dion tube • Double wishbone • Hydragas • Hydrolastic • Hydropneumatic • Independent suspension • Leaf spring • Live axle • MacPherson strut • Multi-link suspension • Panhard rod • Shock absorber • Swing axle • Toe angle • Torsion bar • Trailing arm • Unsprung mass • Watt's linkage • Wheel alignment • Wheelbase Steering Ackermann steering geometry • Caster angle • Kingpin • Oversteer • Power steering • Rack and pinion • Torque steering • Understeer Brakes Automatic Braking • Anti-lock Braking System • Brake bleeding • Brake fade • Brake fluid • Brake lining • Disc brake • Drum brake • Electronic Brakeforce Distribution • Electronic Stability Control • Engine braking • Hydraulic brake • Hydraulic fluid • Inboard brake • Parking brake • Regenerative brake • Vacuum servo Roadwheels and tires (tyres) All-terrain tyre • Alloy wheel • Bias-ply tire • Contact patch • Custom wheel • Drive wheel • Hubcap • Mud-terrain tyre • Paddle tires • Radial tire • Rostyle wheel • Run-flat tire • Schrader valve • Slick tyre • Spinner • Tire code • Tire Pressure Monitoring System • Tread • Treadwear rating • Tweel • Whitewall tire • Wire wheels Portal • Category v • d • e Porsche road car timeline, 1960–present Type 1960s 1970s 1980s 1990s 2000s 2010s 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 Entry level Sports car 912 924 Boxster (986) Boxster (987) 356 914 944 968 Cayman (987) 911 series 911 911 / 930 911 (964) 911 (993) 911 (996) 911 (997) GT 928 Luxury car Panamera (970) Supercar 959 911 GT1 Carrera GT (980) SUV Cayenne (955) Cayenne (957) Cayenne (958) Concept cars 356/1 · 114 · 695 · 901 · 969 · 989 · Panamericana · 918 Spyder Motorsport Porsche Junioren · Porsche Carrera Cup · Porsche Supercup · Carrera Cup Germany · Carrera Cup Great Britain · Carrera Cup Scandinavia · Carrera Cup France · Australian Carrera Cup 64 · 360 · 550 · 718 · 787 · 804 · 904 · 906 · 907 · 908 · 909 · 910 · 914-6 GT · 917 · 934 · 935 · 936 · 953 · 956 · 961 · 962 · GT1 · GT2 · GT3 · WSC-95 · LMP · RS Spyder Porsche families Ferdinand Porsche · Ferry Porsche · F.A.

Basically you push the gearshift over to the right into the + - slot you were speaking of... and then Tap (or tip) the gearshift in the chosen direction to either upshift or downshift... Many refer to them as a lazy-man's stick-shift... but it is the best of both worlds really... Use it like a stick in the mountains and the twistys and just leave it in drive when in the stop and go traffic of town. As far as usability goes... You only have to hear a racer complaining about 'missing a shift' to really appreciate the value... __________________ 2010 40th Anniversary Z - 6MT Zeetoys Fluid caps Nismo Oil cap 2006 Silver 350ZR 5AT - SOLD 11-11-2008, 08:25 PM #6 (permalink) Amirs350z Pwned by 6SPD Z33 Join Date: Apr 2008 Location: Williams, AZ Posts: 8,095 itrader Score: 1 reviews And there's really no "clutch" I thought the auto's had a Torque converter?

What things have gone wrong with the car? Only the usual service and consumable items have needed changing such as tyres, brakes discs and pads, and the odd bit of body trim where the previous owner had damaged it.The parts that I did need to replace that cost a lot of money were the remote locking plip key - this was £150 from Nissan, and the EGR pipe from the exhaust manifold to the EGR valve was cracked and blowing out exhaust gasses; noisy as well. This small pipe was £60 from Nissan (just to supply, not to fit...I did that myself) which I consider a real rip off. This is clearly the Renault influence, as Nissan is now owned by Renault (I believe) and Renault parts have always been sheer extortion.The radio LCD display tends to be a little unreliable; it fades out in cold weather so I cannot read it. My old Mondeo did this as well, so I was a little annoyed to find that this car had the same problem.The 6 CD multichanger does not like playing CD's that I record myself on my PC either.Had to change the pollen filter as the previous owner had never done this in 100,000 miles - it was totally clogged! No wonder the car was always misting up inside. This always gets neglected on services and is hidden away in ducting behind the glovebox, but took me 10 minutes to change - filter is £15 from Nissan.Considering I only paid £675 for the car off Ebay, and spent £700 putting it right replacing the parts above and giving it a good service, I have still got a really good car for my money, which subsequently flew through the MOT. General comments? I am very impressed with this car, as it drives very nicely and I like the CVT auto box very much. It's so different from driving a conventional automatic, but the only downside is that acceleration is not brilliant at 11 seconds from 0-60. The manual is 2 seconds quicker than this. However, I am now 36 and my days of driving like a loony are over and in general, I am perfectly happy with its performance. I would say that this CVT Tiptronic box is well worth the small sacrifice in overall speed, as it is so much easier to drive than a manual and so smooth in how it works.The interior is very well laid out and seems very well screwed together with no rattles; considering the car has done 100,000 miles, this shows how durable Nissans are. I particularly like the climate control, usually only range topping models get this, but all models in the 99 - 02 model range get it as standard. Well done Nissan for not being cheapskates.The car has all the other bells and whistles, but does lack heated seats and cruise control, but I can't have it all for £675 now can I?Slight areas of rust are apparent though over the front wheel arches - a common problem on all cars of this age and mileage and easily rubbed down and treated, but generally it's not too badly affected.All in all a very good bargain. My Aunt had one from brand new (2000 model sport+ Auto) and had it for nearly 7 years with only a couple of minor hiccups. She was pleased with hers as well and only replaced it 2 years back with a Toyota Avensis, which is also a superb car.However the big problem for Nissan is now that Renault are in the equation, modern Nissan have become unreliable, as I have seen by reading other reviews on here. Renault have not got a good track record where reliability and quality are concerned. Just read reviews on here from 2001 on, on the Laguna Mk2 and Megane Mk2 - just page after page of blue faces and angry dissatisfied customers. If this is what Nissan has now become, then this Primera will be my last and only Nissan, and I will go for Toyota next time.Renault are a dreadful company and I have had a Renault in the past - it was a money pit, so never again.To sum up, this Primera is a great car: handsome looks, reliable, and a pleasure to drive. But now that Renault have taken over, the dealer service is rubbish and parts prices have rocketed, so take this into account when buying any old Nissan. 2 comments Fix the spelling and grammar Delete this review Recommended reviews 2000 - Primera s 1.8. petrolFun/sensible/reliable/economical transport 1999 - Primera GT LE 2.0 petrolExcellent value all rounder All 1999 Nissan Primera reviews Would you buy another car from this manufacturer?
