What are the maintenance methods for automatic transmission cars?

[FinleyRose]

Maintenance methods for automatic transmission cars include regularly checking the transmission fluid and ensuring the automatic transmission fluid level is normal. During the break-in period, avoid abruptly stepping on the accelerator pedal. The primary concept of driving an automatic transmission car is to break the habit of relying solely on the D (Drive) gear. Below are some key points about automatic transmission cars: 1. The method for checking automatic transmission fluid differs from engine oil. Engine oil is checked when the engine is cold, whereas transmission fluid should be warmed up to approximately 50°C. Then, shift the gear lever through each position, pausing for 2 seconds in each, before placing it in the Park position. At this point, the fluid level on the dipstick should be between the maximum and minimum marks. 2. Automatic transmission fluid should typically be inspected every 6 months and replaced approximately every 40,000 km or every 2 years.
