Can the Transmission Fluid of the Langdong Automatic Transmission Not Be Replaced?
2 Answers
The transmission fluid of the Langdong automatic transmission can be replaced, but it should not be replaced indiscriminately. Generally, it is recommended to consider replacement at around 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. Below is more information about transmission fluid replacement: 1. Introduction: Transmission fluid is used in automotive transmissions to clean and lubricate the gear system, extend the life of the transmission device, and has functions such as cleaning, lubrication, rust prevention, and heat dissipation. 2. Types: Depending on the type of automotive transmission, transmission fluid can be divided into manual transmission fluid and automatic transmission fluid. 3. Replacement Interval: It is generally recommended to replace the transmission fluid every 3 years or approximately 100,000 kilometers.
I've been driving the Elantra automatic transmission for many years, and of course, the transmission fluid can be changed—it must be replaced regularly. Otherwise, the aging fluid can wear out internal gears, leading to gear shift jerks or transmission damage. The replacement interval is typically around 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers, costing about 500 yuan, which is very cost-effective. I once delayed the change, and the transmission overheated, costing me over 3,000 yuan to repair. The Elantra requires a specific automatic transmission fluid, so it's best to visit a professional shop for a flush replacement to ensure complete removal of the old fluid. By the way, regularly checking the fluid level is also important—a discolored dipstick is a clear sign it's time for a change.
