When replacing the half-shaft on a Focus, it is necessary to replenish the transmission fluid, as a leaking half-shaft oil seal can affect the transmission fluid level—the leaked fluid is indeed transmission fluid. Below is more information about transmission fluid replacement: 1. Introduction: Transmission fluid is used in a car's transmission system to clean and lubricate the gear system, extend the lifespan of the transmission components, and serves functions such as cleaning, lubrication, rust prevention, and heat dissipation. 2. Types: Depending on the type of transmission, transmission fluid can be divided into manual transmission fluid and automatic transmission fluid. Generally, automatic transmission fluid should be replaced every two years or every 40,000 kilometers, while manual transmission fluid typically needs replacement within 60,000 kilometers.

Will the Tire Pressure Warning Light Come On If the Pressure Is Too High?

The tire pressure warning light will illuminate when the pressure is too high, indicating that tire inspection and pressure adjustment are necessary. According to the international GBT2978-2008 standard requirements, the recommended tire pressures for different types of tires are as follows: Standard tires: 2.4-2.5 bar; Reinforced tires: 2.8-2.9 bar; Maximum pressure: should not exceed 3.5 bar. Hazards of excessive tire pressure: Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; Accelerates wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; Increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; Overextends tire cords, reducing elasticity and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving; Decreases puncture resistance. When encountering sharp objects like nails or glass on the road, they can easily penetrate the tire, causing internal cracks or blowouts.
