"Reflecting the latest ASE Education Foundation tasks, the fully updated Seventh Edition of Today’s Technician: Manual Transmissions & Transaxles covers must-know topics including dual-clutch systems, limited-slip differential designs, and all-wheel drive systems, as well as essential safety concepts and major components of the transmission system and subsystems. New material throughout the text gives readers an up-to-date understanding of the latest automotive technology and key advances in the fast-changing automotive industry. The authors have revised sections on electronic controls of transmissions, transfer cases, and differentials to feature the latest reprogramming techniques today’s technicians need to know. Covering both fundamental theory and practical job skills, the text includes a Classroom Manual reviewing every topic for Manual Drive Train and Axles, and a hands-on Shop Manual with full-color photo sequences and detailed job sheets, including service and repair tasks based on the latest MLR, AST, and MAST task lists."-- Provided by publisher.
