S Tronic Flywheel question

Post by neo61uk » Fri Jun 10, 2016 6:00 pm

Hi to all

Does anyone know if there is a flywheel fitted in S Tronic gearbox build for Rs4?
I know that normal automatics have torque converters therefore not using a flywheel.
But s tronic is a type of two manuals connected together?

Anyone know?

Thanks

Oh ok thanks for info
Is it dual mass one or single?
Any known issues with them?
If you know of course.

Thanks

Not entirely sure but think its dual mass. If I remember, I'll try and ask the dealer as my gearbox is coming out to be replaced.

Why is it going to be replaced?
What mileage is your car?

Oh don't worry mate
I red your post about it

I thought its the gearbox that failed but its looking like it's not the case.

Good luck with it

Flywheel does exist and its dual mass, all modern vehicles are fitted with dual mass for smoother operation.
