How often should the transmission fluid of Chery Tiggo 5 be changed?
1 Answers
For the Tiggo 5, the transmission fluid should be changed every three years or 30,000 kilometers. There are three key points to note regarding transmission fluid: 1. Under normal driving conditions, the transmission fluid temperature is typically below 135°C. However, if the vehicle is excessively used, such as when towing heavy loads or driving in four-wheel-drive mode set for snow or off-road conditions, the transmission fluid temperature may reach 135°C due to excessive slippage in the torque converter. 2. When the transmission fluid temperature reaches 135°C, the installed transmission fluid overheating warning system will display "Oo135c" to actively alert the user to stop the vehicle, shift to neutral, engage the handbrake, and keep the engine idling. This allows the fluid circulation to enter a cooling mode for rapid temperature reduction until the warning signal disappears. 3. The transmission fluid overheating warning system will continue to sound an alarm. Additionally, the lubricating performance of the transmission fluid weakens as the temperature rises. When the fluid temperature reaches 143°C, the transmission fluid may lose its lubricating properties, leading to internal transmission component failures due to excessive friction and overheating.
