What is the actual lifespan of an AT transmission?
1 Answers
An AT transmission can last up to 500,000 kilometers. Below are some relevant details about AT transmissions: 1. AT transmission: The AT transmission consists entirely of planetary gears, which enable gear shifting and torque variation. The shifting smoothness of an AT transmission is superior to that of a dual-clutch transmission, and it can handle higher torque compared to a CVT transmission. 2. Scheduled maintenance: Replace the transmission fluid according to the specified time or mileage. Although many manufacturers claim that the transmission is maintenance-free for life, the recommended replacement interval for transmission fluid is 60,000-80,000 kilometers (varies by vehicle model). After the first maintenance, it is advisable to replace the fluid every 40,000-60,000 kilometers to prevent the transmission fluid from deteriorating.
