Your transmission relies heavily on the temperature, level, and condition of its fluid, which serves to cool and lubricate. With automatic transmissions, the fluid also transfers power and provides necessary pressure to the internal parts of the transmission. The transmission fluid must be checked and changed regularly. Special attention should be given to the temperature of an automatic transmission, as overheating will break the fluid down and cause it to lose the ability to protect moving parts inside the transmission.

Have your vehicle’s transmission fluid changed at the scheduled intervals according to your owner’s manual. Depending upon their condition, the filter and gasket may need to be replaced as well.
