TR80SD

The 8-speed 0С8 (or TR-80SD according to Aisin) is a new generation of Aisin RWD transmissions. It was designed in 2006 for VAG (Volkswagen-Audi) as an alternative to DSG, which still can not function reliably with powerful engines.

This transmission was installed on Audi Q7 equipped with diesel engines V6-V8 from 3 liter capacity, and the torque capacity over 700 Nm. The same trasnmission design adapted for off-road Lexus cars has been used since 2007 under the name AA80E\F.

In the winter of 2010, this 8-speed transmission fully entered the foreign market, where it replaced its 6-speed predecessor TR-60SN on Porsche Cayenne (2010 - 2014) and on Tuareс (2010 - 2014) in different sub-versions for TDI diesel engines with the capacity from 3.0 up to 3.6 liters (Audi -TFSI). This transmission was used by American automakers for Cadillac CTS VSport in 2014 under the name TL-80SD. The competitive model for above mentioned gearbox is ZF 8HP70. This transmission was designed with usage of successful TR60-SN elements, but the valve body and the overall construction of transmission components and electrics were significantly modified. Most of the parts are not interchangeable with the predecessor. It is the most powerful of modern RWD Aisin transmission capable of transmitting the torque up to 800 Nm.
