Transmission Fluid Maintenance FAQ
Q: What is the importance of transmission fluid service?
A: Transmission fluid service is very important to your car’s transmission by coating the gears, providing lubrication to protect the internal components, and allow you to seamlessly shift.
Q: How often should I replace or change my fluid?
A: The frequency at which you should replace your transmission fluid is dependent on the type of vehicle that you drive, how often you drive, and your recommended maintenance schedule. A good rule of thumb is to change your transmission fluid every 30,000 to 60,000 miles.
Q: Is there a type of transmission fluid that needs to be used?
A: Similar to your engine oil, transmission fluid can be specific to each transmission and car model. While many cars operate on a type of MVS (Multi-Vehicle Synthetic) fluids, not all transmissions operate on this. Different car manufacturers have different specifications and recommendations. Likewise, if your car has a CVT transmission, then you will need a special type of transmission fluid that is made to accompany and power the pulley-system.
