Don't Forget to Maintain Your Transmission

Transmission Fluid is Crucial For Your Car

We're always talking about the importance of engine oil, but we forget the importance of the transmission. Changing the automatic transmission fluid for most cars is necessary every 30,000 miles or every two years, whichever comes first. If we don't change the transmission fluid regularly, excessive heating is generated in the transmission. This causes extra pollution and the worst; the transmission breaks Here are some tips to let you know when your transmission needs maintenance:

You Can't Change Gears

This problem is very common in manual transmissions. When you press the clutch pedal, and switch from first to second, the transmission lags and you can't change gears. The most common causes are low transmission fluid or incorrect viscosity. It may also be necessary to adjust the cables or connection with the clutch.

Your Transmission Switches Back to Neutral

When the transmission operates normally, the gears change smoothly, and your vehicle's computer designates the range of rpm for the speed change. But when the speed is in the desired gear and it "jumps out of gear while driving, this is a sign your transmission has a problem. In cars with manual transmission, the lever returns to neutral position. In this event, it is best to take your car in for maintenance as soon as possible.
