The F23 is a five-speed manual transmission manufactured by Getrag in Italy. citation needed It is designed for transverse engine applications, primarily by General Motors.It can handle torque inputs of over 230 newton metres (170 lbf⋅ft). It is designed to be used with a stock Fiero 5-speed shifter, Isuzu Shift cable, and Getrag Select cable. The cables are clamped into position with machined shaft collars, so they will never vibrate loose or break free. The bracket is made from 1/8″ steel and has a triangulated design making it strong enough to withstand aggressive shifting.

The W-platform (also known as the W-body) was a General Motorsautomobile platform which underpinned both mid size and full-sizefront-wheel drive cars. Originally code named GM10, it began development in 1982 under Chairman Roger B. Smith and debuted in 1987 with the Pontiac Grand Prix, Buick Regal, and Oldsmobile Cutlass Supremecoupés. The four-door sedan version was introduced for 1990.

Starting with the 2nd Gen 110.5 in wheelbase in 1996 it became a full-size platform as well as a 109 in wheelbase mid-size; from 2005 on the 3rd gen 110.5 in wheelbase full-size was the only version through its discontinuation in 2016.

History[edit]

The platform cost $7 billion to develop and was to replace all midsize cars produced by Chevrolet, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, and Buick on the G and A platforms. This ultimately did not happen; while the A-platform Chevrolet Celebrity and Pontiac 6000 were quickly discontinued, the A-body Buick Century and Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera remained in production until 1996. The engineering work was done by the Chevrolet-Pontiac-Canada (CPC) group; also known as the small car division.

The plan was for seven GM plants that would each assemble 250,000 of the cars, or 21% of the total U.S. car market.^[1] It was badly executed from the start, but GM's 1984 reorganization, combined with changing market dynamics, wrought havoc with the program and it never recovered. By 1989, the year before the last of the original GM10's were launched, GM was losing $2000 on every car it produced.^[2]

The later revision of this platform was known as the MS2000 or simply the W2-Car. Early versions used a transversely installed, fiberglass mono-leaf spring combined with struts in the rear. The 'generation 1.5' W-body models had updated rear suspensions that used coil springs instead of the transverse leaf spring design inspired by the Chevrolet Corvette. For the 1997 model year the second generation W-body was released with a MacPherson strut coil spring design.

The W platform was updated in 2004 rather than being replaced by a stretched Epsilon platform, as had been planned. Metal fabrication of the floor pan for W-body cars was performed at the Parma Metal Center in Parma, Ohio. The cars were built at GM's Oshawa Car Assembly. The transverse use of GM's LS small-block engine in the W-bodies was a major addition for 2005.

The GM W Platform was phased out with the production of the new long-wheelbase Epsilon II platform. The last car produced on the W platform was the ninth generation of the Chevrolet Impala, which was replaced by the Epsilon-based tenth-generation Impala, beginning in model year 2014. GM continued to produce the W-body Impala to fleet customers only under the name Impala Limited until production ended in May 2016.^[3]

General Motors is an innovator of automatic transmissions, introducing the Hydra-Matic in 1940.^[1] This list includes some GM transmissions. Cod modern warfare 2 mac download.

Automatic transmissions[edit]

Early models[edit]

The GM Hydra-Matic was a success and installed in the majority of GM models by 1950. Through the 1950s, all makers were working on their own automatic transmission, with four more developed inside GM alone. All of GM's early automatic transmissions were replaced by variants of the Turbo-Hydramatic by the 1970s.

• 1940–1967 Hydra-Matic — Oldsmobile (now the trade name for all GM automatic transmissions)
• 1948–1963 Dynaflow — Buick
• 1950–1973 Powerglide — Chevrolet (also used by Pontiac, Holden, Vauxhall and Opel)
• 1968-1971 Torquedrive- Chevrolet ( Camaro and Chevy II, Nova. Manually shifted on Column. )
• 1957–1961 Turboglide — Chevrolet (V8 models only, except Corvette)
• 1958–1959 Flightpitch — Buick
• 1961–1963 Dual Path Turbine Drive — Buick
• 1961–1964 Roto Hydramatic — Oldsmobile/Pontiac (also used by Holden)
• 1964–1969 Super Turbine 300 — Buick/Oldsmobile/Pontiac (Oldsmobile Jetaway)
• 1968–1969 Torquedrive — Chevrolet (manually column shifted 2 speed automatic, 6 cyl only)
• 1956-1964 4 speed Controlled coupling HydraMatic, also known as Cadillac 315 or P 315 HydraMatic, Oldsmobile Jetaway, Pontiac Super HydraMatic.
• TempestTorque, ( Pontiac) a two speed based on Powerglide, but having the added feature of ' Split Torque ' dividing the engine power between mechanical connection and the torque converter in high gear.

Turbo-Hydramatic[edit]

The Turbo-Hydramatic was used by all GM divisions, and formed the basis for the company's modern Hydramatic line. The basic rear-wheel drive Turbo-Hydramatic spawned two front-wheel drive variants, the transverseTurbo-Hydramatic 125, and the longitudinalTurbo-Hydramatic 425. A third variant was the light-duty rear wheel drive Turbo-Hydramatic 180 used in many European models.

Heavy-duty rear wheel drive

• 1971–1994 3L80HD (heavy duty version of TH400)

Medium-duty rear wheel drive

• 1964–1992 Super Turbine 400/TH400/3L80
• 1969–1986 TH350/TH350C/TH375B/TH250/TH250C
• 1972–1976 TH375 — Light duty version of TH400
• 1976–1987 TH200/TH200C
• 1981–1990 TH200-4R
• 1982–1993 TH700R4/4L60

Light-duty rear wheel drive

• 1969–1998 TH180/TH180C/3L30 — 3-speed European/Asian model. Also manufactured and used by Holden as the Trimatic transmission.

Transverse front wheel drive

• 1980–1999 TH125/TH125C/3T40 — 3-speed light-duty
• 1984–1994 TH440-T4/4T60 — 4-speed medium-duty

Longitudinal front wheel drive

• 1966–1978 TH425 — 3-speed
• 1979–1981 TH325 — 3-speed
• 1982–1985 TH325-4L — 4-speed

Electronic Hydra-Matics[edit]

The next-generation transmissions, introduced in the early 1990s, were the electronic Hydra-Matics based on the Turbo-Hydramatic design. Most early electronic transmissions use the '-E' designator to differentiate them from their non-electronic cousins, but this has been dropped on transmissions with no mechanical version like the new GM 6L80 transmission.

Today, GM uses a simple naming scheme for their transmissions, with the 'Hydra-Matic' name used on most automatics across all divisions.

First-generation longitudinal (Rear Wheel drive)

• 1991–2001 4L30-E — 4-speed light-duty (used in BMW, Cadillac, Isuzu, and Opel cars)

• 1993–2010 4T80-E — 4-speed heavy-duty (used in large front wheel drive GM vehicles, only with Cadillac NorthStar V8.

Second-generation longitudinal (Rear Wheel drive)

• 2000–2007 5L40-E/5L50 — 5-speed medium-duty (used in Cadillac's Sigma vehicles)

*This transmission is part of a joint-venture between General Motors and Ford Motor Company to split development of two transmissions, a longitudinal 10-speed and transverse 9-speed. Ford led the design of the 10-speed transmission, as well as filing the design patents for said transmission. According to an official report by the SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) the design of the 10-speed gearbox is essentially all Ford, while GM was responsible for designing the 9-speed 9T transverse automatic gearbox. As part of their joint-venture, Ford will let GM use the 10-speed transmission with rights to modify and manufacture it for their own applications. In-exchange for Ford's 10-speed transmission, General Motors will let Ford use its 9-speed transmission for front-wheel drive applications; Ford ultimately declined use of the 9T.^[2][3][4]

Second-generation transverse (Front Wheel drive)

• 2008–present: 6T30/6T40/6T45 — 6-speed light-duty
• 2006–present: 6T70/6T75 — 6-speed medium-duty
• 2016–present: 9T50/9T65 Hydra-Matic – 9-speed^[5]

• 2ML70 - 2-Mode Hybrid transmission.
• 4ET50 (MKA) - Electric Drive Unit Transaxle (First Generation Chevrolet Volt / Cadillac ELR)
• 5ET50 (MKV) - Electronically controlled, continuously-variable automatic transaxle (Second Generation Chevrolet Volt)^[6]
