Will symptoms appear immediately after water enters the transmission?
1 Answers
Symptoms will not appear immediately after water enters the transmission, they usually manifest after about two weeks. The following are the symptoms of water entering the transmission: 1. Mild water ingress: Some screws in the transmission may rust. 2. Moderate water ingress: White deposits appear in the oil pan. When oil and water mix, they form a white emulsion that adheres to the oil pan. If such deposits are present, it indicates moderate water ingress in the transmission. 3. Severe water ingress: This can be determined by the color and viscosity of the transmission oil. Transmission maintenance measures: 1. Regular inspections: Follow the manufacturer's requirements to regularly check the transmission oil, replace it on time, and use the transmission oil with the specified grade recommended by the manufacturer. 2. Avoid using cleaners: Only about 30% of the total oil volume is drained through the drain bolt, so it is not recommended to use transmission cleaners in this case.
