To keep your transmission working smoothly, transmission maintenance is a must. Without transmission maintenance, you are not setting up your transmission for optimal performance and longevity. Transmission maintenance should be done efficiently. Here are some common mistakes that are made about transmission maintenance:
1. Never Getting Your Transmission Maintenance
If you don’t get transmission maintenance, you will not receive the benefits of maintenance. To ensure that your transmission is getting its best chance of performance and longevity, it must receive transmission maintenance. Regular maintenance can save you money since it can prevent unwanted transmission problems.
2. Only Checking the Level of Your Transmission Fluid
Check transmission fluid is the most common transmission maintenance. If you do it at home, it is easy to only check the transmission fluid level and not the quality of the fluid. Yes, transmission needs a proper amount of transmission fluid, but they also need the fluid to have the correct consistency and quality.
When checking your transmission fluid be sure to observe the level AND the quality. Transmission fluid should be reddish and not brown or black. The scent should not be strong or foul-smelling. If you don’t prefer to check your transmission fluid at home, you can bring your vehicle to a local transmission shop like Eagle Transmission.
3. Avoiding Signs of Transmission Problems
Transmission maintenance can even be getting your vehicle inspected if you sense there is something wrong. Getting a transmission issue checked when you experience any change in shifting or noises while driving can catch minor problems instead of major transmission problems. Though not all times are minor issues. So, if you think you notice a change in how your vehicle drives or sounds, get it to checked immediately. It could just be something minor, but it could save you lots in the end.
