Where is the transmission located?
1 Answers
The transmission is generally located in the engine compartment of the car, connected to the engine. In some cases, it may also be found beneath the central gear lever in the front row of the vehicle. In daily use of the transmission, the following points should be noted: Do not delay changing the transmission oil for extended periods. Prolonged failure to change the transmission oil can lead to damage to internal components such as bearings and the housing; Avoid coasting in neutral for long durations. While driving manual transmission vehicles, many 'experienced drivers' may engage in coasting in neutral, but for automatic transmission vehicles, this can cause the transmission to overheat and produce a noticeable jolt when shifting back into Drive (D) mode; Never shift into Drive (D) or Reverse (R) before the vehicle has come to a complete stop. Many drivers, aiming to showcase 'smooth' operation, shift directly into the opposite gear while the vehicle is still moving, which can cause significant damage to the transmission gears and, over time, lead to gear grinding and other malfunctions; Avoid frequently climbing steep slopes in Drive (D) mode. When facing steep inclines, automatic transmission vehicles may overheat due to high load or prematurely upshift, resulting in insufficient climbing power. In such cases, using manual mode to limit lower gears or switching to sport mode can help protect the transmission; Do not tow over long distances. If an automatic transmission vehicle breaks down, it should be transported using a flatbed tow truck, with the vehicle shifted into Neutral (N) mode and moved onto the tow platform. Towing with a rope or directly dragging the vehicle should be avoided.
