Dodge Intrepid Transmission

Transmission is a drivetrain device found in a rear wheel drive vehicles that possesses internal gears which makes the vehicle capable of traveling high speeds on the road with the engine turning at the same speeds. Transmissions are available in two different types: the standard and the automatic. Their main difference is that with the standard transmission, shifting is manual while in automatic, the shifting is taken care of for you.

 

Standard transmissions oblige the driver to shift gears whenever it is needed. Automatic transmissions, on the other hand, upshift and downshift without the driver's effort, according to the required parameters. Manual transmissions come with a clutch, an extra pedal beside the brake. When changing gears, you need to push the clutch with your left foot before you can shift gears. Transmission gears can possibly be altered so that you can change speed at which a vehicle travels in a certain gear. Also, it is possible to boost the performance of the automatic transmission by mounting a lift kit.
