How often should the transmission fluid of a Vios be changed?
1 Answers
The transmission fluid of a Vios is generally recommended to be changed every 2 years or approximately 60,000 kilometers. The replacement cycle varies for different models. Below are the replacement intervals for transmission fluid: Manual Transmission: Manual transmission fluid is typically recommended to be changed every 3 years or approximately 100,000 kilometers. Automatic Transmission: Automatic transmission fluid is generally recommended to be changed every 2 years or approximately 40,000 kilometers. Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT): CVT fluid is usually recommended to be changed every 2 years or approximately 60,000 kilometers. The methods for changing transmission fluid are as follows: 1. Loosen the drain screw at the bottom of the transmission to drain the old fluid, then refill with new fluid. 2. Remove the transmission oil pan directly to drain and refill the fluid: This method is more thorough than the previous one, as it removes impurities settled at the bottom of the oil pan. 3. Use a circulation machine to change automatic transmission fluid: A smart circulation machine performs dynamic fluid replacement, filtering and cleaning sludge and impurities inside the automatic transmission.
