How many liters of transmission fluid does the ATSL require?
1 Answers
The Cadillac ATSL requires 7L of transmission fluid. If an automatic transmission fluid exchange machine is used, approximately 14L will be needed. Functions of the transmission: Changing the gear ratio; expanding the torque and speed of the driving wheels; enabling the vehicle to reverse; facilitating gear shifting or power output. The transmission is a mechanism used to alter the speed and torque from the engine, capable of fixing or changing the gear ratio between the output and input shafts. It consists of a gear transmission mechanism and a control mechanism. Maintenance methods for automotive transmissions: Replace automatic transmission fluid every 12 months or 20,000 kilometers; avoid coasting in neutral; frequently check fluid levels; avoid skipping gears when upshifting; do not force the transmission into neutral; do not shorten the idle warm-up time; avoid gear grinding when shifting; clean the transmission; avoid driving immediately after starting without warming up; perform regular maintenance on the automatic transmission. Types of transmissions: Transmissions are categorized into manual and automatic types. Manual transmissions primarily consist of gears and shafts, achieving speed and torque changes through different gear combinations. Automatic transmissions are composed of a torque converter, planetary gears, a hydraulic torque variation system, and a hydraulic control system, achieving speed and torque changes through hydraulic transmission and gear combinations. Also known as a gearbox, the transmission is an automotive component that alters the speed and torque from the engine and can fix or change the gear ratio between the output and input shafts. The transmission consists of a gear transmission mechanism and a control mechanism, with functions including enabling reverse driving, interrupting power transmission, and changing gear ratios.
