What type of transmission oil should be used for the Corolla 1.2T?
1 Answers
Corolla 1.2T uses CVT transmission oil. Replacement frequency: Generally, it should be replaced every 80,000 to 100,000 kilometers. Criteria for replacing transmission oil: You can determine whether to change the transmission oil based on the operating condition of the vehicle's transmission. If the vehicle shifts smoothly and the transmission noise doesn't change significantly, you can continue driving without worry. However, if the vehicle feels sluggish when shifting, especially when the driving speed exceeds 100 km/h and the transmission noise increases noticeably, you should consider replacing the transmission oil. Replacing transmission oil is not actually difficult, but selecting, inspecting, and changing the transmission oil are the most critical steps. More than 80% of transmission failures are caused by deteriorated transmission oil. Therefore, timely inspection and replacement of transmission oil constitute proper transmission maintenance and can also extend the transmission's service life.
