What are the symptoms of a problematic car transmission?
1 Answers
Issues such as transmission slipping, oil leakage, and jerking may occur. The following are symptoms of a problematic transmission: 1. Transmission slipping: While driving, if you hear the engine revving without a noticeable increase in speed, experience weak acceleration, or notice poor uphill performance with inexplicably high engine RPM while normal on flat roads. 2. Transmission jerking: Symptoms include noticeable jerking or shaking during gear shifts while driving. Possible causes include excessively high transmission fluid temperature, stubborn dirt and impurities inside, or valve body blockage leading to transmission jerking. Please visit a 4S shop or repair shop for inspection and maintenance. 3. Transmission noise: This manifests as inexplicable noises from the transmission during driving, with no identifiable source, sometimes loud, and intermittent or very dull during gear shifts. The causes of transmission noise are complex, possibly due to long-term high temperatures reducing the anti-wear and lubricating properties of transmission fluid, leading to wear or damage to components like bearings and gears.
