Abstract
The influence of gear oils on the efficiency of automobile gears are explained. In order to analyze and evaluate this influence the transmission gear is considered as an tribotechnical system. The smallest energy transmission unit of a tribotechnical system is the tribological system. Therefore, the complex tribological system transmission gear is split into eight main tribological systems. Their technical functions and structures and the lubricant's influence on the function are described.
