Can an Audi with Water in the Transmission Still Be Driven?
1 Answers
Audi transmission with water ingress should not be driven. Regularly change automatic transmission fluid: Ensures smooth and seamless gear shifting, improves handling performance, provides excellent oxidation resistance, reduces component corrosion, and offers superior protection for gear assemblies with its extreme pressure additives. Hazards of not changing regularly: Chemical degradation of automatic transmission fluid leads to impurity formation, causing oil passage blockage and affecting gear shifting functionality. Prolonged high-temperature operation reduces the lubricating properties of the fluid, increasing wear on clutch plates and potentially causing "stall" phenomena. Extended use also diminishes the antioxidant effectiveness of the fluid, raising the risk of component corrosion.
