What Are the Functions of Transmission Fluid?
1 Answers
Here are the functions of transmission fluid: 1. It keeps the gear system clean, ensuring the normal operation of the transmission and extending the service life of the transmission device. It provides effective lubrication even at low temperatures and reduces fluid loss under harsh operating conditions. 2. Automatic transmission fluid is specifically designed for automatic transmissions. Due to significant differences in working conditions and technical requirements, using engine oil as automatic transmission fluid was quickly phased out. 3. The specialized automatic transmission fluid used today serves as both the hydraulic fluid for the torque converter and the lubricating oil for the planetary gear structure, as well as the hydraulic fluid for the shifting mechanism.
