Does the transmission fluid need to be changed at 40,000 kilometers?
1 Answers
Generally, it is recommended to change the transmission fluid between 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. At 40,000 kilometers, it can usually be left unchanged for the time being. Transmission fluid replacement interval: There is actually no specific reference time for this. Some car owners suggest changing it every 100,000 kilometers, saying that changing it too frequently is unnecessary. Others recommend changing it every 2 years or 40,000 kilometers to ensure the vehicle is always in optimal condition. Everyone has their own opinion, and the replacement interval is generally an approximate figure. Moreover, due to uncertain factors such as the type of transmission and the driving habits of the owner, the replacement cycle of transmission fluid cannot be generalized. Whether it should be changed depends on the condition of the transmission fluid. Manual transmission: The oil in a manual transmission is gear oil, whose main function is lubrication, similar to the role of engine oil in an engine. Because manual transmissions have a relatively simple structure, rely on mechanical power transmission, and have fewer internal components with lower precision requirements, there is no need to change the transmission fluid too frequently.
