How often should the transmission fluid in a Tiida be replaced?
1 Answers
The replacement interval for the transmission fluid in a Tiida is 32,500 kilometers or 39 months. Transmission fluid is an oil product that maintains the cleanliness of the gear system, ensuring the proper functioning of the transmission and extending the lifespan of the transmission components. Below is an introduction to the methods for replacing the transmission fluid in a Nissan Tiida: 1. Gravity Drain: Similar to the principle of changing engine oil. Using tools to loosen the drain plug, the transmission fluid will automatically flow out under gravity. This method is the most common and easy to perform, but it cannot completely drain all the transmission fluid. Some fluid remains due to mechanical structures such as recesses and depressions that create dead spots. 2. Machine Flush: New transmission fluid is added to a flushing machine, which is connected to the transmission's fluid circuit. The pressure from the new fluid pushes out the old fluid, resulting in a cleaner flush of the fluid circuit. The more new transmission fluid used in the machine flush, the more thoroughly the old fluid is removed. A machine flush typically uses about 10-15 liters of fluid and takes approximately 1 hour to complete. 3. Oil Pan Removal: This method allows for cleaning the oil filter and flushing the oil pan, addressing the issue at its root. Removing the oil pan is a significant task, and the associated labor costs will be higher.
