How to Claim Insurance for a Transmission Failure Without an Accident?
1 Answers
Transmission damage depends on the cause, as insurance companies typically do not cover non-accident-related failures. Below is an introduction to transmissions: 1. Transmission fluids are categorized into two types: Based on transmission structure, they are divided into manual transmission fluid and automatic transmission fluid. Manual transmission fluid, commonly referred to as gear oil, is primarily composed of petroleum-based lubricating oil or synthetic lubricating oil, blended with extreme pressure anti-wear agents and oiliness agents to form an essential lubricant. 2. Automatic transmission fluid: The specialized fluid used in automatic transmissions serves both as the hydraulic fluid for the torque converter and as the lubricant for the planetary gear structure and the hydraulic fluid for the shifting mechanism. Under normal driving conditions, automatic transmission fluid should generally be replaced every 120,000 kilometers, and under severe driving conditions, every 60,000 kilometers.
