Will hitting the transmission oil pan affect the transmission?
1 Answers
Carefully check for oil leaks, as leaks will have an impact. Below is an introduction to oil leakage situations after the transmission is hit: 1. Check for external oil leaks: Pay special attention to whether there are oil leaks at the front and rear crankshaft oil seals. A cracked, damaged, or aged front crankshaft oil seal, or wear on the contact surface between the crankshaft pulley and the oil seal, can cause oil leakage at the front of the crankshaft. A cracked or damaged rear crankshaft oil seal or an excessively small oil return hole in the rear main bearing cap that obstructs oil return can cause oil leakage at the rear of the crankshaft. 2. Oil leaks at the front and rear oil seals: If oil seeps from multiple locations such as the front and rear cylinder head covers, front and rear valve tappet chambers, oil filter, and oil pan gasket, but no obvious leak source is found, check the crankcase ventilation system, clean the crankcase ventilation pipes, and inspect whether the PCV valve is malfunctioning due to carbon buildup and gumming. 3. Check the oil pressure: If oil continues to leak from the oil filter and some oil pipe connections after tightening, check whether the oil pressure is too high and whether the oil pressure relief valve is malfunctioning.
