Car Maintenance and Service
One of the most expensive and the most complex components to repair of
a vehicle is the automatic transmission system. Vehicle transmission
maintenance requires a lot of hard work to get it repaired. An important
part of the transmission system is the transmission fluid as it transfers the
hydraulic pressure for shifting of gears, lubricates the moving parts and
helps in cooling down the transmission. Over the period of time, the
transmission fluid deteriorates. Hence, it is important to check and keep it
clean from time to time.
One needs to regularly check his parking space for any leaks or oil spills. If
there are any leaks, it should be fixed within time to avoid major problems.
The transmission fluid level and condition should be checked once in a
while for this purpose. Also, only that quality of oil should be used which is
mentioned in the user manual. Some of the transmission problems can be
avoided by maintaining proper driving skills, such as shifting to reverse or
parking mode only when the vehicle has come to a complete halt avoiding
shifting to parking mode at high speeds. Get more information from Mike

Most of the problems of transmission are results of overheating. The
transmission overheats due heavy load on the vehicle such as towing other
heavy vehicle, continuous start and stop, racing or hot weather. This results
in the oxidization of transmission oil which causes loss of lubricating
qualities. Hence, the vehicle should be checked regularly for overheated
transmission. Overheating can also occur due improper design, lack of
maintenance or faulty parts. These things should be checked from time to
time and maintained properly.
Car maintenance is necessary to increase the life expectancy of the vehicle.
If the transmission system is very well maintained, it can fetch good money
at resale. Hence, any problem in the vehicle should be immediately
reported to the mechanic to avoid any major problem. Besides, it can be
very useful in maintaining a clean environment free from any pollution.
Transmission parts should be replaced with the branded products only. This
can help in avoiding accidents due to failure of parts.
