Is the oil leaking from the axle seal transmission fluid?
1 Answers
No. The axle is lubricated with gear oil, which is different from transmission fluid. Here is a relevant introduction to automotive transmission fluid: 1. Function: Transmission fluid is an oil product that keeps the gear system clean, ensuring normal operation of the transmission and extending the lifespan of the transmission components. It is an essential lubricant for car transmissions. 2. Characteristics: It has anti-low-temperature properties, providing effective lubrication even in cold conditions, and reduces oil loss under harsh operating conditions. Depending on the transmission structure, transmission fluid is divided into automatic transmission fluid (ATF) and manual transmission fluid. 3. Explanation: From the perspective of oil characteristics, the most obvious difference is that manual transmission fluid is more viscous than automatic transmission fluid, and the replacement cycle is generally shorter. Most family cars require manual transmission fluid replacement every 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers.
