Should the Automatic Transmission Filter Be Replaced?
1 Answers
Automatic transmission filters need to be replaced. Generally, they should be replaced along with the transmission fluid, approximately every two years or after driving 40,000-60,000 kilometers. The conditions for replacing an automatic transmission filter are: 1. Friction between metal components generates fine debris, and the transmission fluid becomes contaminated. These impurities are easily intercepted and filtered by the transmission filter screen to prevent transmission malfunctions. 2. Most filters are made of filter paper material, which accumulates many impurities after long-term use, necessitating replacement. Additional information: The transmission filter, also known as the transmission filter screen, is installed inside the transmission and serves a filtering function. It filters out oil contaminants in the transmission, thereby protecting the transmission.
