How Many Kilometers Should Manual Transmission Fluid Be Replaced?
1 Answers
Manual transmission fluid is generally referred to as gear oil. Under normal driving conditions, manual transmission gear oil should typically be replaced every 2 years or 60,000 kilometers. Hazards of not changing transmission fluid: Transmission fluid working under high-speed and high-temperature conditions for extended periods can deteriorate and evaporate, thereby exacerbating the wear of mechanical components and, in severe cases, damaging internal transmission parts. Long-term failure to replace transmission fluid may result in the car struggling to start when cold. Daily maintenance of manual transmission: After driving a certain distance, check for any leaks in the transmission; ensure the transmission has sufficient oil; replace the transmission fluid promptly.
