What Causes Excessive Transmission Fluid Temperature?
1 Answers
Transmission fluid temperature becomes excessively high due to: 1. Incorrect transmission fluid level (either too high or too low); 2. Damaged transmission pump or obstructed oil suction pipeline; 3. Deteriorated hydraulic transmission oil. Transmission fluid is an essential lubricant that maintains the cleanliness of the gear system, serving the following purposes: 1. Ensuring proper transmission operation and prolonging the lifespan of transmission components; 2. Providing effective lubrication under low-temperature conditions; 3. Minimizing oil loss during severe operating conditions. The replacement procedure for transmission fluid consists of: 1. Removing the drain plug at the bottom of the transmission to discharge old fluid; 2. Detaching the inner and outer transmission casings; 3. Removing the transmission fluid filter; 4. Taking off the oil pan gasket and cleaning surrounding contaminants; 5. Wiping the cleaned transmission fluid filter with cotton yarn; 6. Refilling with new transmission fluid.
