Abstract
A vehicle control system in a vehicle having a continuously variable transmission (CVT) system with a clutch mechanism modulates a torque capacity of the clutch mechanism. The CVT system in the vehicle further includes a primary pulley, a secondary pulley and a CVT belt for transmitting a torque to wheels from a power source rotatably connected with an input shaft. The clutch mechanism includes a forward (FWD) clutch between the power source and a CVT pulley assembly. The vehicle control system detects a wheel slip of the CVT system and controls a torque capacity of the FWD clutch, and the system is configured for avoiding a slip of the CVT belt by dissipating a spike torque generated by the wheel slip.
