How often should the transmission fluid be changed for the Sagitar 1.6?

[OEmersyn]

The transmission fluid replacement interval for the Sagitar 1.6 is every 60,000 kilometers, with a replacement capacity of 4 liters. Transmission fluid deteriorates and evaporates under prolonged high-speed and high-temperature conditions, which can accelerate the wear of mechanical components and, in severe cases, damage internal transmission parts. Owners should adhere to the maintenance manual's guidelines for replacement. Methods for changing the transmission fluid in the Sagitar: 1. Gravity Drain: The method and principle are similar to changing engine oil—using tools to loosen the nut, allowing the transmission fluid to flow out naturally under gravity. 2. Machine Flush: New transmission fluid is added to a flushing machine, which is then connected to the transmission's fluid lines. The new fluid pushes out the old fluid under the machine's action, resulting in a cleaner flush of the fluid lines. 3. Oil Pan Removal: This method allows for cleaning the oil filter and flushing the oil pan, addressing the issue at its root. However, removing the oil pan is a significant task, and the corresponding labor costs will also increase.
