The
use of the hydraulic system will enable the transmission to change ratios at much higher engine speeds than before, according to Hands.
B: All of the other attempts to look at an automotive suspension focused on the hardware first — for example, how do you optimize the
performance of a hydraulic system?
It's the helm that's partly to blame for this, for although the Z4's standard electronic power - steering set - up has been ditched in
favour of a hydraulic system, it's still not as good as is should be.
It does lack some of the tactile
patter of the hydraulic systems fitted to older GT3s, but, crucially, it gives you a clear impression of how hard the front tyres are being worked and it allows you to place the car on the road with millimetric precision.
The 225 / 45R -18 Michelin Pilots really hang on, and the recalibrated and quickened electric power steering does a convincing
impression of a hydraulic system.
These driving qualities are attained while retaining the incremental fuel economy benefits of an electric system over the higher parasitic
losses of hydraulic systems.
While the transmission is sequential, it's only because
of a hydraulic system pushing and pulling a traditional «H - pattern» on the transmission — the movements are controlled by two column - mounted flappy paddles.
One thing that I liked a lot about the old MDX was the hefty steering
feel of the hydraulic system that delivered good feedback through the wheel.
The steering, though electronically assisted, drips with almost all the
feedback of a hydraulic system, weighting up naturally, as communicating the grip limits of the front wheels with magical precision.
Hudson automobiles used an unusual hybrid hydraulic - mechanical dual - brake system which operated the rear brakes through the otherwise conventional mechanical parking brake system when a
failure of the hydraulic system allowed the pedal to travel beyond its normal limit.
Performed
servicing of hydraulic systems, engine oil, fuel, and ensured lubrication of aircraft components, while performing inspecting, launching and recovering aircraft.
