How many kilometers to change the transmission oil?
1 Answers
Automatic transmissions require an oil change every two years or 40,000 kilometers, while manual transmission oil is generally replaced every 2 to 4 years or 80,000 kilometers. Transmission oil is a lubricant that keeps the gear system clean, ensuring proper transmission operation and extending the lifespan of the transmission components. It provides effective lubrication even at low temperatures and reduces oil loss under harsh operating conditions. Transmission oil is categorized into automatic transmission fluid (ATF), specifically designed for automatic transmissions, and manual transmission oil, also known as gear oil, used for lubricating spur and bevel gears, as well as gears in transmissions and steering systems under normal load conditions.
