Why is there a slight oil leak in the car's transmission?
1 Answers
Here are the reasons for transmission oil leakage: 1. Oil leakage at the oil seal neck: The oil seal aging and deforming, the oil seal spring falling off, or incorrect installation direction can all cause the oil seal to lose its oil-blocking function. Replace aged and deformed oil seals, pay attention to the installation direction of the oil seal, the side with the spring ring should face the oil side. If the neck is worn or dented, causing poor contact with the oil seal and resulting in oil leakage, replace or repair the worn or dented neck. 2. Oil leakage at the housing joint surface: If the joint surface of the housing is damaged, appropriately thicken the paper gasket at the damaged area. If oil leakage persists, perform welding repair. If the sealing paper gasket is damaged, replace it with an identical one. If the housing cover screws are loose, tighten them promptly. 3. Oil leakage at the front bearing joint surface: If the fastening screws are loose, tighten them in a diagonal sequence in stages, but avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to the paper gasket. Additionally, if the transmission vent is blocked, isolating the transmission from the external atmosphere during operation, the internal pressure rises, causing oil to seep from the blocked area. Keep the transmission vent clear to reduce internal pressure and prevent oil leakage.
