What Causes Gear Shift Hesitation in the Transmission?
1 Answers
Transmission shift hesitation is caused by: the need to replace transmission oil, which is essentially the gear oil inside the transmission and requires regular replacement. Failure to replace it promptly can significantly reduce its lubrication effectiveness, leading to a substantial increase in shifting resistance and making gear changes feel rough. Transmission oil is essential for maintaining the cleanliness of the transmission system, ensuring it operates normally and extending the lifespan of the vehicle's drivetrain components. Depending on the transmission type, transmission oil can be categorized into manual transmission oil and automatic transmission oil. Automatic transmission oil, also known as ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid), serves both as a hydraulic fluid and a lubricant, functioning in different parts of the vehicle.
