The Transmission System & Fluid Exchange Maintenance
The automatic transmission is one of the most sophisticated systems with a complex arrangement of computerized gears that divert power with a hydraulic called transmission fluid. Transmission fluid serves as a hydraulic and a lubricant that sends power through the system while lubricating the moving parts. The friction and heat inside the transmission require that the fluid be inspected and exchanged routinely, as recommended in the owner’s manual. It is especially important to know the warning signs of transmission fluid problems in case of leaks because this can lead to catastrophic damage and vehicle immobilization.
