What Happens When Transmission Fluid Temperature Is Too High?

[LeCharlie]

Damage the performance of the transmission fluid, increase friction and wear in the transmission, and cause transmission noise. Reasons for high transmission fluid temperature: Poor quality of the fluid or incorrect amount added. Transmission fluid maintenance: Regularly check whether the automatic transmission fluid level is normal. The transmission fluid needs to be preheated to around 50 degrees Celsius, then shift the gear lever through each position for 2 seconds before placing it in the parking gear. The normal fluid level on the dipstick should be between the maximum and minimum lines. Add an automatic transmission protectant to the automatic transmission at a ratio of 5%. For older vehicles, it is best to add a bottle of automatic transmission leak stopper to restore the aging of transmission seals and prevent leakage. Understand the replacement cycle of automatic transmission fluid; generally, the replacement cycle is 2 years or 40,000-60,000 kilometers. During normal use, the working temperature of automatic transmission fluid is around 120 degrees Celsius, so it is important to choose high-quality automatic transmission fluid.
