A clutch delay valve (CDV) is a component found in the hydraulic clutch systems of vehicles, particularly those with manual or semi-automatic transmissions. The primary function of a clutch delay valve is to modulate the engagement of the clutch to enhance drivability and prevent harsh shifts or stalling under certain conditions. \#\#\# Functionality: 1. **Smooth Engagement**: The CDV helps manage the rate at which the clutch engages, allowing for a smoother transition between gear shifts.
