Is there a difference between City vario's gearbox and steermatic?

[Jaleel]

Actually I want it to know about the gearbox of both. Because Vario does not support cng. I had vario its gearbox was malfunctioned due to cng. Now give me opinion about steermatic's gearbox. Both the same or not? Experiences?

[Dr.Kazim]

always, vario is automatic and i think steermatic have dual operation.

Stermatic comes with trip tonic transmission. I think there is a difference in vario and stermatic's transmission.

its true that vario and steermatic have different gear boxes, but both are electronically controlled, and require perfect rpm (you can say pick, which can only be on patrol) due to which your cars transmission is malfunctioning, if you want tension free auto transmission city on cng, follow my instructions, install original Italian electronic emulator advancer, and original Italian Lambda (oxygen control unit) in your car with cng, these 2 parts will give you same pick as patrol and also 35% reduction in fuel consumption,these 2 parts cost around 20k maximum,

both both of them works on CVT system (continusly variable transmission) unlimited gears, the car keeps on going and going theres no rpm drop at gear change, CVT system is a flop on CNG.

Dear Friend
Kindly let me know about the 35% reduction in fuel, are you talking about CNG.

Both the Vario and Steermatic cars are CVT. Both hate CNG as CVT relies on the throttle sensor inputs which are affected by the flow of cng.

My understanding at least of why CNG is bad is based on the fact that petrol is delivered at a continuous rate by the petrol pump thus the throttle sensor experiences no lag or jerks which confounds the CVT computer.

CNG flow, in pakistan at least, is not as consistent as petrol due to air/oil in cylinder etc which affects the throttle sensor which results in jerks/interruptions in the signal sent to the CVT which causes it to skip a beat every now and than which results in extra strain on the transmission. Also CVT fluid needs to be changed at regular intervals (as all AT cars require) which if neglected causes failure in the transmission.

These are just my opinions on why CNG is hard on CVT's. If anybody thinks i am incorrect, feel free to correct me

Vario comes with simple CVT transmission where as steermatic is equipped with CVT + 7 Speed Mode!!!
