¢. should | be getting my automatic transmission » adjustud and its Auid changed regularly, and

if so, how offen? ° Automatic transmissions are one of A: the most neglected components in an automobile and one of the most expensive to repair.

Automatic transmissions utilize lydraulic pressure to irensfer power from the engine, through a torque converter, to a number of gears. These gears are actuated by dutch packs. All of this aciivity generates tremendous heat, particularly in the tore converter.

Automatic transmission fluid is similar to motor oil however it contains significantly higher amounts of detergents. These additives break down under normal use and lose their detergent and lubricative values. This becomes particularly acute if the fluid becomes bumi, as a result of overheating. Overheating occurs when the transmission is low on Auid {the fluid cools the transmission) or when you work the transmission too hard, such as by towing a large trailer.

tt is critical that drivers check their transmission regularly {once a month) and advisable to have the fluid replaced and filter changed every 12 to 18 months,

For the most part, transmissions in cars built after the early 80's have litle or no adjustment. The days of having your ‘bands’ adjusted are all but gone.

Given the cost of a major transmission repair, costing thousands of dollars, regular maintenance makes financial sense.
