What Causes the Clicking Sound When Accelerating from a Stop in an Automatic Transmission?
1 Answers
Automatic transmission makes a clicking sound when accelerating from a stop due to issues such as transmission problems, loose drive shaft joints, transmission wear, worn output shaft inside the transmission, worn transmission gears, or shifting mechanism failure. Another possible cause is parking on a slope and engaging the P gear before applying the handbrake. Solutions are as follows: 1. Maintenance: Replace transmission fluid and perform a comprehensive transmission service; 2. Avoid aggressive driving: Be mindful of not driving too aggressively in daily use to prevent accelerated transmission wear. An automatic transmission typically refers to a car's automatic gear-shifting mechanism, where the transmission control system automatically selects the appropriate gear based on engine speed and load, replacing the driver's subjective judgment and manual shifting operations.
