Transmission gears deliver power
from the engine to the drive wheels; shifting automatically to provide the best
power and efficiency for your driving speed. A speed transmission fluid cools
and lubricates the gears. As you drive further, the fluids degrade and
lubricant qualities diminish. Fluid flush services at correct intervals can
help prevent premature wear and damage to the transmission.
What is Manual Transmission
Service?
A transmission is a speed and
power-changing device located between the engine and the wheels. It provides a
means for changing the ratio between engine RPM and driving wheel RPM to meet
each particular driving situation.
Manual transmission fluid provides
lubrication to gears, bearing, shafts and other internal components. Heat,
pressure and friction can slowly breakdown the additives in the manual
transmission fluid. Fluid flush service is able to clean up small particles of
metal that came off the engine as the wear and can prevent these materials from
mixing with the fluid.
What Is Transmission Fluid
Flush Service?
As simple as removing the old
transmission fluid and replacing it with a new one is the whole idea. This also
means checking the recommended grade of fluid written by the manufacturer.
Automatic transmission drain and fill is the first step in fluid flush services.
The ATF lubricates, cools, and cleans internal components of the transmission.
It also helps maintain the hydraulic pressure necessary for the transmission to
function. The additives in the transmission fluid can be depleted overtime.
This process includes the following: removal of the transmission fluid,
reinstalling transmission fill/drain plug, and refilling transmission with new
transmission fluid to the proper level.
How can Transmission Filter
Replacement help?
Transmission fluid flush services do
not focus on fluids only; the filters play a huge role in keeping a clean fluid
running through your engine. Changing of the fluid in the transmission system,
including the torque converter and transmission cooler is the first process
followed by the removal of the transmission pan, removal of old transmission
filter, and replacing it with a new transmission filter; it is best for you to
pick a new gasket and reinstall a pan that is made by higher quality of
materials for it to last long.
