Do Automatic Transmissions Need Regular Fluid Changes?
Yes! Most automobile manufacturers require transmission fluid changes around 25,000 kms or once per year, whichever comes first. According to the Automatic Transmission Rebuilders Association, nearly nine out of ten transmission failures are due to overheating and fluid contamination. Changing your automatic transmission fluid will help prolong transmission life, by safely removing harmful sludge and varnish deposits, while revitalizing seals and O-ring, therefore protecting your manufacturer’s warranty.
