What happens if too much transmission fluid is added?
1 Answers
Effects of adding too much transmission fluid: 1. The fluid level will be too high, and during driving, the fluid easily contacts rotating components. The agitation of the fluid by these components can create bubbles, which, when drawn into the oil pump, lead to abnormal oil pressure and reduced lubrication effectiveness. 2. It can cause the drainage holes on the control valve to become blocked, resulting in poor drainage and causing gear shift shocks. 3. The resistance experienced by rotating gears increases, affecting the transmission's efficiency. Transmission fluid is used to keep the gear system clean in automatic transmissions and serves to lubricate and prolong the life of the transmission components.
