How to Change Transmission Fluid for Automatic Transmissions?
1 Answers
Detailed introduction on changing transmission fluid for automatic transmissions is as follows: 1. Two methods for changing transmission fluid in automatic transmission vehicles: Automatic transmission fluid change is achieved through gravity drainage and exchange machine methods. 2. Detailed explanation of gravity drainage method: (1) Traditional gravity drainage: Utilizes the natural gravity of ATF fluid for drainage. (2) Advantages of gravity drainage: Uses less new fluid, making it relatively cost-effective. (3) Disadvantages of gravity drainage: Manual static drainage cannot completely remove all old fluid, only draining the fluid from the oil pan while leaving residual old fluid inside the transmission. 3. Detailed explanation of exchange machine method: (1) Dynamic exchange with machine: Uses an exchange machine to perform a circulating cleaning inside the transmission, removing old fluid and impurities. (2) Advantages of machine exchange: The intelligent exchange machine enables dynamic fluid change, filtering and circulating cleaning to remove sludge and impurities, ensuring a complete replacement of old fluid with new fluid in equal amounts. (3) Disadvantages of machine exchange: Requires more new fluid, resulting in higher costs for the fluid change.
