How many liters of transmission oil does the Reiz need?
2 Answers
If it is a manual replacement, 5 liters are needed; if it is a replacement using a circulation machine, 12 liters are required. Generally, manual replacement can only replace about 40% of the old transmission oil, so approximately 5 liters are needed for manual replacement. The circulation machine, under pressure, can replace all the transmission oil, hence requiring 12 liters for this method. Below is an introduction to transmission oil replacement: 1. Regular inspection: If the vehicle is used intensively, such as frequent high-speed driving, it is best to regularly maintain and conduct a comprehensive inspection of the transmission at a 4S shop. 2. Regular replacement: If the transmission oil is not replaced for a long time, it can easily deteriorate and evaporate under high-speed and high-temperature conditions, which will accelerate the wear of mechanical parts. It can also cause the car to experience weak starting power when cold, and the transmission oil will become thicker, potentially obstructing the transmission cooler, leading to excessively high transmission oil temperature and increased wear.
I just changed the transmission fluid for my old Mark X. For manual transmission models, 3 to 4 liters is sufficient, while automatic transmissions generally require 5 to 8 liters. The exact amount depends on your model year. For example, my 2012 2.5L automatic actually took over 7 liters. It's recommended to completely drain the old fluid first, then slowly add new fluid. Start the engine and let it stay in each gear for 30 seconds, and finally check that the dipstick level is in the middle position for optimal safety. Using genuine WS transmission fluid yields the best results. Although dealerships charge more, their operations are professional. Doing it yourself may lead to overfilling or underfilling, causing gear shift jerks.
