Your transmission runs because of a complex hydraulic system that transfers power in order to provide acceleration for your car. Key to this hydraulic system is a hydraulic fluid known as transmission fluid. Transmission fluid is highly specialized for the job it needs to do, but it can degrade over time and with exposure to heat. When it becomes degraded enough, it will need to be exchanged for new transmission fluid. We’re here to help, because at Ray Skillman Northeast Kia, we provide certified transmission fluid exchanges for your vehicle.
Knowing when to change your transmission fluid can be tricky, as you want to replace it before it starts giving you problems. For example, if you notice your transmission having trouble shifting gears, having difficulty idling, or making a clunking sound when you shift, you might need a transmission fluid exchange. Normally, transmission fluid needs to be exchanged every 90,000 miles, so that’s a great time to start having your transmission fluid checked to see if it needs exchanging. Our technicians are happy to help get your transmission fluid replaced when you need it so that your transmission can run correctly for as long as possible.
Transmission fluid needs to be exchanged because it degrades over time. This can happen in all sorts of different ways, but the main culprits are time and heat. Over time, the specialized chemicals in the transmission fluid can break down and not work as they should. This process is aggravated by heat, which can cause your transmission fluid to slowly lose its lubrication and protective properties. While it takes a long time for fluid to degrade, it’s important to keep an eye on it and know when to start thinking about getting your transmission fluid exchanged.
