Parts and Operation Most CVT units use a conventional torque converter with a torque converter clutch except the Honda Civic CVT. In the Honda Civic CVT, a start clutch is used to apply engine torque to the drive pulley. The start clutch slips and provides a small amount of creep until the driver releases the brake pedal. At this point, the start clutch is fully applied and transmits torque to the drive pulley. See Figure 100–22. NOTE: Some vehicles equipped with a continuously variable transmission (CVT) have shifter paddles on the steering wheel or a manual shift mode on the gear selector. When using these paddles to upshift or downshift, the transmission control module selects preprogrammed ratios, which give the driver a sense that it is actively shifting gears. Continued
