Is It Necessary to Repair Transmission Slippage?
1 Answers
Transmission slippage should be repaired, as repairing is more cost-effective than replacing the entire transmission. The following details the causes of internal transmission slippage: 1. Lack of maintenance over time: Prolonged absence of maintenance leads to the accumulation of sludge, impurities, and metal powder, causing severe wear on components like clutches, brakes, or one-way clutches, which results in slippage. 2. Adding or replacing with non-specified oil: Automatic transmissions require vehicle-specific oil. Using incompatible oil types can lead to issues; if the friction coefficient increases, it may cause gearshift impact, whereas a decreased friction coefficient can result in slippage.
