Summary:

Driveline clunk during static engagements on vehicles with automatic transmissions is a phenomenon that can adversely affect customer perception of vehicle quality. Tuning a vehicle's static engagement characteristics for superior shift quality demands a good understanding of the inputs to the vehicle driveline, the response of the driveline, and the sensitivity of the vehicle to such inputs.This paper describes a case study conducted on a rear wheel drive vehicle with an automatic transmission and independent rear suspension to understand and reduce the severity of driveline engagement clunk to acceptable levels. Finally, the results of the study are used to develop guidelines for such vehicles to ensure superior shift quality during static engagements
