Haha thank you! My thoughts: 1. Music doesn't help you understand cars any better. 2. Intros don't help you understand cars any better. 3. Getting to the point helps you understand cars better. Glad the recipe has worked for someone!
This video helped me understand cars much better! Hahaha Seriously great explanation, I've seen all your videos talking about gears and transmissions, but there is still something bothering me about rpms, specifically down shifting and rev matching. I understand that you need to increase the engine revolutions to match those of the lowest gear, but I can't see clearly when I think about the gears and synchronizers It would be great if you made a video like "How manual transmissions work "explaining how rev matching works with an actual transmission
I am speechless. You sir are a perfect example why I love youtube so much. This was BY FAR the best explanation on sequential gearboxes, and I understood it completely. Just by looking at your drawing, it suddenly all made sense to me. Also, you are very clear and thorough. Thank you very much for this!
At time 9:51 you mentioned that you do not have to use the clutch after first gear with a sequential transmission, but shouldn't all the same reasons for needing to engage the clutch on a regular manual transmission still apply to a sequential transmission?
Bro made super realistic car sounds, definitely should have those sounds in a game!!! Anyway, great video, finally was able to understand a sequential gearbox. Keep on the good work mate!
It's good to see how far you'll come alone bro. I dont mean to poke fun but you have so much more enthusiasm in your newer videos lol. Keep up the great work.
Cesotoseot Biggest difference is the number of selector forks and the missing reverse, so that 1st and 2nd, 3rd and 4th, 5th and 6th are grouped together on 3 selector forks instead of 4 with neutral between 1st and 2nd. instead if between R and 1st.
Dude, the things I like about your vids: (1)you dont have any silly music playing in the back ground. (2)You dont have any silly intro sequences (3) you get straight to the point. Keep up the good work. God bless.
When I hear you explain the stuff I've wondered about so easily, I wonder why the heck I took so long to try to learn it. Have you been told you are an exceptional teacher? I seem to have no problem understanding any concept you explain. Well done, man!
I gotta say this is the best explanation on sequential gearboxes I have ever seen in my life. You have the GIFT of lecturing and I am amazed. Been binge watching this channel and I just HAD to leave a comment on this... I am gonna burn all your videos on every type of media to never lose this knowledge lmao
Great job! Saw dozensn of videos on the topic, each one left me with more questions than answers. You sir, were clear, consice, and comprehensive. Also, I love that you did the gear shift sound. It's what separates the real petrolheads from the unenlightened,
Great to hear! It's not that the stuff is that complicated; there a just a ton of sources out there that "explain" it but don't give all the details. As you said, it takes me a while to figure this stuff out, since many sources don't give all the needed information. But I try to provide the essentials. Thanks for watching!
So my searching about sequentials landed me here, and as soon as I saw your diagram I completely understood how they worked. Great work man! Looking through your channel I quickly subscribed and will definitely be watching more videos.
Dude, you're brilliant. I happen to be a Mechanical Engineer myself and I've found your videos extremely useful providing to-the-point info. Great work. Keep it up!
Yes, you could potentially have some clutch slip (minor) while shifting gears. Also, depending on the design, yes, there can be a very tiny space between where no power is delivered. This can be overcome by similar designs to DCTs, where two forks move simultaneously to minimize the time with less torque.
That is by far the best explanation of a gearbox Iv ever heard! Your explaining it as an F1 gearbox but it's exactly (although slower) the same as a motorcycle! Thanks very much!
Yes, they do. While holding the neutral button, the driver can downshift into neutral from 1st gear. It's a safety built in so that the driver doesn't accidentally shift into neutral. There's a similar button for reverse. I'll have a video on the steering wheel up in a week from today.
Your knowledge of engineering processes is something that you picked up from observing the world around you, but your desire and ability to explain these concepts to others comes from within. You, sir, were born to be a teacher. Go out into the world and make your mark, and then come back and teach this stuff. Outstanding!
Hey, im from lebanon and im doing mechanical engineering, and all i want to say that i love ur channel, your videos and the way u explain ur topics! All the best for You, And keep going!
After 40 years I now know how the sequential box works. And from one of your other videos, how the "air spring" operated valves of a Formula 1 engine work.Thanks heaps from Down Under.
Tremic transmissions now sells sequential conversions for some of their newest aftermarket transmissions. I would love to have one in my new Shelby GT350. It was built to be driven on the road courses and street. Again you are fantastic at teaching. Keep up the great work.
I came here knowing that in motorcycle gearbox you can switch gears in order and that this board scheme makes no sense. And now I believe I understand operation of aformentioned gearbox. Congratulations, You just earned new subscribor.
Could be, or it could be a mechanical lever which rotates it through your foot pressing a pedal, pulling a shifter, etc. As always there are many ways of doing it, and different companies have different methods.
Seamless shift is often in DCTs, but Mercedes (and others) claim their F1 gearboxes never lose power during the shift (hence, seamless). I thought the same about the gear changes, the difference if 2 collars are used in the shift or just 1. I couldn't tell you to be honest, though it does look like using 2 would be quicker. This could be overcome using more selectors and collars, but who knows if it would be worth the extra weight/complexity.
I cant stop watching your videos. You break things down very well. I was wondering if there was any way you could explain how a harley v-rod evolution motor works. The transmission and motor are one piece and i have always wondered how it works. Keep up the good work!
Hey Jason, I've been a fan of your videos for a couple of years now and damn, I wish I would've seen one about dog boxes/straight cut transmissions. Howsoever, keep up the good work! :)
Now if you don't understand what a clutch is, I have a video to explain that. Now if you don't understand what a video is, I have a video to explain that. Now if you don't understand what an explanation is, I have a video to explain that. Endlessly helpful, thank you sir.
Dude, discovered your channel, ive been driving for years but concepts like these make me appreciate the engineering of cars , like your videos, deff a subscribe, where do you go to school?
If the gears are straight cut (spur gears) they create much more noise. Also, racing vehicles tend not to worry about noise as much, so it's not as dampened out as it is in production cars.
I came here knowing that in motorcycle gearbox you can switch gears in order and that this board scheme makes no sense. And now I believe I understand operation of aformentioned gearbox. Congratulations, You just earned new subscrober.
Well the majority are likely using torque converters (lower end vehicles with paddle shifts), but for the higher end, excluding DCTs (which switch clutches, done by the ECU), single clutch transmission would have to have electronic control of the clutch actuation. But this would still likely be much faster than a human switching gears.
I've got a video on it if you'd care to see it. Not sure what you mean by two gear boxes; two concentric shafts with separate clutches, yes, but not two transmissions.
Great explanation. I always wondered how they worked. If I remember right, the most common road vehicle that uses a sequential transmission is a motorcycle.
great vids. very simple explanation. the only thing that makes me difficult to understand its that i speak very little english. keep going you are great. Greetings from Argentina
It's really mind blowing as to how everything can handle the stresses of this. Just think about this F1 engines spin at around 18,000 RPM. Then in as the driver shifts it drops by ~2000 RPM almost instantly and under full throttle.
Some higher performance vehicles yes, I have a video on DCT's though, which are different. You can search my channel for "dual clutch" and should be able to find it.
I appreciate the small details in your diagrams, e.g. the way the helical gear teeth are drawn, and that you remembered the reverse gear would have its teeth slanted the other way (beause of the reverse idler gear).
Your channel is MUST for all petrolheads! Please keep up with great videos. Also please inform us as much as possible about new hybrid systems in sports cars (KERS, electro. hydrogen...) I know that you made videos about those subject, but I expect even more from you :))) Thanx !!!!
Jason, first let me say I'm a huge fan of your videos. I've been watching them for some time now and am happy to see how well your RUclips channel has done. I, too, recently graduated from a MechE program. I've been thinking about the concept of clutchless shifting in a synchronized gearbox lately and just want to run my thoughts by you. I've always assumed it is a very bad thing to do, as it would cause undue wear on the synchros. But now that I got thinking about it, I started thinking that maybe it's not all that bad--provided you're fairly good at it. Initial intuition would tell you that it puts a lot of wear on the synchros because they have to synchronize the speed of the input shaft, gears, flywheel, and engine instead of just the input shaft and gears. But at a closer look, I thought that synchros wear would really only be a function of three things, 1. Speed differential between input and output shaft 2. Force applied to the shifter, and 3. Duration of contact. With a clutchless shift, there is very little speed differential (none of you're perfect), there is less resistance on the shifter than during "normal" shifts, and it goes into gear just as quickly. This would lead me to believe that a reasonably good clutchless shift can actually put less wear on the gearbox than a normal shift. Is this correct? I know the best thing would obviously be to rev match AND use the clutch, but I like to show off!
Jacob Shaw these gearboxes actually use dog engagements, which operate slightly different from your standard synchro. from what ive seen, a synchro is still somewhat apparent with a dog clutch, just not nearly as apparent (further reducing the amount of friction introduced and force required to change gears.)
Depending on the quality/materials of parts used, could be either. I would say though that manual is much more dependent on the driver than sequential.
You say with sequential you can't go from 5th to second for example a turn. Technically you could, but you'd have to take your left foot off the brake and use it to disengage the clutch and still go through all the hand motions. Not efficient, but possible! I've watched several of your videos and this is the first "a ha! You got something wrong!" I've been able to catch. Great vids, accurate, informative, and passionate yet concise.
you still physically have to go threw the gears if you engage them or not.. So he is correct. Just because you do not engage the clutch does not mean you go threw the gear.. On a typical H pattern trans you can go from 6th straight to neutral then over to 1st .. with out going into the other positions .. in this trans you can not you still must pull the lever 5times to get down to first... So good try but you are wrong..
this is just awesome, i know alot about marine diesel enginesl, but always look for a way to expand my knowledge about car engines, and this was extremely clear and easy to get. thank you. u get a like and a subscription,
Excellent video and explanation. Now I understand how my motorbike gearbox is working. However, just to make the point, you forget to mention that changing gear without actionning the clutch, you have to lower the torque on the shaft so that it would shift (done by cuting the injection).... And just a tip for your videos to be even better : don't look your whiteboard so much... (learned that in some competitive exams ! ) Thanks ;)
Awesome, nice explanation! Clear and concise. Question: you say "that after moving in 1st gear, clutch is no longer needed for gear changes..." Then are the syncros typically bigger, stronger, more aggressive and would the same also be true for the splines/hubs?
awesome video. when i first saw the whiteboard it looked so complex, but after listening to you about 5 min in, it looked so simple :-) great video! oh, and i got here from r/formula1 too
In V8 Supercars, in Australia, they shift while the clutch is engaged. The engine is programmed so that it will decrease the rpm while shifting up(we are not even talking seconds.) It is called gear cut and is also used in many of the GT classes.
Anything can use it, that doesn't mean they will though. It requires the operator to select gears, most drivers don't want to, hence they drive automatics.
Haha thank you! My thoughts: 1. Music doesn't help you understand cars any better. 2. Intros don't help you understand cars any better. 3. Getting to the point helps you understand cars better.

I share your sentiments Uri, watching for the 1st time on the topic and get it completely.
Agreed.... Best explaination I seen...
it's a good explanation on how gearboxes work in general
I appreciate the high expectations!! I am only a one man team though, I'll get there eventually! :)
If only scool teachers could explain something as good as you do we wouldn't have so much problems in Argentina
World mate, world. We here in Latvia think same 😂
Yes, I'm an ME; I took a few related classes but have learned the majority on my own.

They made me smile
The Way My Man explained the downshifts and upshifts with the sounds is just 👌👌👌👌👌
Bro made super realistic car sounds, definitely should have those sounds in a game!!!
Anyway, great video, finally was able to understand a sequential gearbox.
Keep on the good work mate!
Jason, I have been struggling to understand how the sequential gearbox on my new car works and you have explained it brilliantly, thank you so much!
It's good to see how far you'll come alone bro. I dont mean to poke fun but you have so much more enthusiasm in your newer videos lol. Keep up the great work.
It's also worth mentioning that almost all motorcycles use a sequential gearbox.

almost ? : D all of them are sequential hence no Sticky do hicky :D
which bikes does not have a manual sequential transmition that goes from neutral, down into first. then second and counting 1, N, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
@@mannyechaluce3814 Honda has a dual clutch option for their dual sport bikes.

You're videos are awesome! It took me 5 minutes to go from barely knowing what a sequential gearbox is to fully understanding how it works.

Where has this channel been all my life? These are some of the things that encourage me to go on with my engineering course :)
I guess this was one of your earlier videos. The flow was a bit more choppy, but the explanation was pure gold! Thx for all your great vids!!

Depending on the quality/materials of parts used, could be either. I would say though that manual is much more dependent on the driver than sequential.
Please do, thanks for watching!

first time i understand how a gearbox works. very clear video. thank you very much! :D
Thanks for watching! Feel free to leave suggestions on my suggestion page of my website (link in the video description).
This is the best dog box explanation I've heard thus far
You say with sequential you can't go from 5th to second for example a turn. Technically you could, but you'd have to take your left foot off the brake and use it to disengage the clutch and still go through all the hand motions. Not efficient, but possible!
I've watched several of your videos and this is the first "a ha! You got something wrong!" I've been able to catch. Great vids, accurate, informative, and passionate yet concise.
you still physically have to go threw the gears if you engage them or not.. So he is correct. Just because you do not engage the clutch does not mean you go threw the gear.. On a typical H pattern trans you can go from 6th straight to neutral then over to 1st .. with out going into the other positions .. in this trans you can not you still must pull the lever 5times to get down to first... So good try but you are wrong..

Thanks, I try to keep it accurate, though there are plenty of times where I either got lazy or wasn't paying attention in certain drawings.
Excellent video and explanation. Now I understand how my motorbike gearbox is working.
However, just to make the point, you forget to mention that changing gear without actionning the clutch, you have to lower the torque on the shaft so that it would shift (done by cuting the injection)....
And just a tip for your videos to be even better : don't look your whiteboard so much... (learned that in some competitive exams ! )
Thanks ;)
Because you sequentially select each gear; 1, 2, 3, etc.
Awesome, nice explanation! Clear and concise. Question: you say "that after moving in 1st gear, clutch is no longer needed for gear changes..." Then are the syncros typically bigger, stronger, more aggressive and would the same also be true for the splines/hubs?
Very welcome!
This is a really good explanation. I thought I would never figure it out.

It is a bit similar, yes, in the manner that the gears are connected, but not selected. The selector shaft would not be involved.
Excellent explanation! Keep putting these videos out please.
Can you please explain how synchronizers work? Great videos by the way, I literally had to watch almost all of them!
Anything can use it, that doesn't mean they will though. It requires the operator to select gears, most drivers don't want to, hence they drive automatics.
No one do it As you Do... Thanks Alot !
Thanks for watching!
Woah, sounds pretty awesome! Reddit seems to bring a solid amount of traffic to my channel. Care to send the link in a PM so I can thank the OP?
Not to sure. Perhaps electronically control the engine speed to go to the next, or allow the clutch to slip a bit.
