How often should the clutch fluid in a car be changed?
1 Answers
Transmission fluid should be changed every two years or 40,000 kilometers. The transmission requires regular fluid changes, as expired or deteriorated transmission fluid can lead to difficulty in shifting gears and wear on the transmission bearings. The steps for changing transmission fluid are as follows: 1. Start the engine to warm it up, allowing the transmission to reach operating temperature; remove the drain plug to collect the old fluid from the transmission. 2. Once the old fluid has completely drained, remove the oil pan and replace the transmission filter; reinstall the oil pan and tighten the drain plug. 3. Add new transmission fluid; start the car and shift through all gears. 4. Check the automatic transmission fluid level to ensure it is normal and adjust if necessary.
