How to Resolve the Limited Functionality of the BYD Song Transmission?
2 Answers
BYD Song transmission function limitation is the protective mode of the gearbox, and replacing the transmission control module can solve the issue. Below is some relevant information about BYD: 1. Brand History: BYD Company Limited was founded in 1995, starting with a team of just over 20 people. By 2003, it had grown into the world's second-largest rechargeable battery manufacturer and established BYD Auto in the same year. Originating as a battery manufacturer, BYD's venture into automobile production initially positioned it as an 'outsider' in the field. However, leveraging its 'independent intellectual property rights' and the acquisition of Qinchuan Auto, BYD gained a first-mover advantage over other newcomers. 2. Brand Introduction: BYD Auto adheres to a development path of independent research, production, and branding, committed to creating truly affordable and high-quality vehicles for the public. The product designs incorporate advanced international trends while aligning with the aesthetic values of Chinese culture.
I recently encountered a transmission function limitation issue while driving my BYD Song, and the warning light on the dashboard really worried me. I tried restarting the car a few times and found that it sometimes temporarily recovered, but the problem soon reappeared, which felt like a software glitch. Later, when I took it to the 4S shop for inspection, the technician said common causes are software bugs or sensor failures, requiring a system update or part replacement. I suggest you first try restarting the vehicle yourself and check if the transmission fluid is sufficient, as low or insufficient fluid can easily cause overheating. If that doesn’t work, seek professional repair as soon as possible—don’t drive it on the road to avoid jerking or loss of power; safety comes first. When driving normally, pay attention to smooth starts and avoid slamming the accelerator. Regularly changing the transmission fluid every 2-3 years or as per the manual can help reduce such failures.
