Product Overview
This is the DOWNLOAD link for the GETRAG DCT 450 TechGuide. The DCT450 (Ford/Volvo) and the DCT470 (Mitsubishi) are a double wet clutch 6 speed automatically controlled manual shift gearbox by Getrag. This transmission is referred to as the Powershift transmission in both Ford and Volvo while Mitsubishi calls it their Twin-Clutch Sportronic Shift Transmission (TC-SST). Technical data from Ford may refer to this transmission as DPS6, Volvo; MPS6 and Mitsubishi; W6DGA or SPS6. These two transmissions may look very similar externally but there are many significant differences.
This manual provides the major differences between these two very similar gearboxes by Getragwith complete valvebody breakdowns and hydraulics. One such notable difference is that the DCT450 uses a double input shaft with the inner shaft providing power to the odd gears and the outer shaft for the even gears. Mitsubishi's DCT470 is just the opposite. The Inner input shaft isused for the even gears and the outer for the odd.
