What does AFW transmission fluid mean?
1 Answers
Aisin AFW6 is a type of transmission fluid, which is a lubricant used to maintain the cleanliness of the gear system. It ensures the proper functioning of the transmission and extends the lifespan of the transmission components. Depending on the structure of the transmission, transmission fluids are categorized into automatic transmission fluid (ATF) and manual transmission fluid (MTF). Below are some details about transmission fluid: 1. Transmission fluid is typically replaced every approximately 40,000 kilometers, as it can deteriorate and evaporate under high-speed and high-temperature conditions over time. 2. Failure to replace the transmission fluid can accelerate the wear and tear of mechanical components. Transmission fluid provides effective lubrication even in low-temperature conditions and reduces fluid loss under harsh operating conditions.
