Ford CVT Transmission - METAL BELT!!!
« on: November 27, 2004, 12:06:17 AM »
If anyone can find a drive belt like the one used on the new Ford CVT transmission, please let me know!!! I'd love to stick one of these puppies on the Pilot! :lol:

By the way, Ford is currently using this CVT transmission in the 2005 Freestyle and the 2005 Five Hundred models.

I started out with nothing and I still have most of it left!  :shock:

I don't think that would work.  It is a wet belt that needs oil to lubricate the belt and the mating face surfaces.  without oil it will just heat up and chew the hell out of the clutches.  BTW Cool link.
