Why is a transmission fluid exchange so important?
Your system requires a transmission fluid exchange to avoid the damaging effects old fluid can have on your transmission.
Transmission fluid contains important additives, and those additives wear out over time. The additives provide the transmission and its gears with proper lubrication, keeping harmful debris out, while ensuring the system stays cool. Once the additives deplete, debris is free to float around and wreak havoc. Debris, compromises lubrication and cooling, and that has the potential to destroy your transmission.
Don’t delay a transmission fluid exchange – especially if you don’t remember the last time you had one.

How often should I have a transmission fluid exchange?
The good news is you don’t have to change transmission fluid as often as motor oil. Change intervals vary by make and model and whether you have automatic or manual transmission. It’s generally recommended you get your transmission fluid exchanged every 24,000 to 36,000 miles or every two-to-three years – whichever comes first. It’s important to note, though, that some new car manufacturers recommend exchanging transmission fluid every 15,000 or even 100,000 miles. Some systems even feature sealed systems, which require no transmission exchange at all.
At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we follow your vehicle manufacturers’ recommended service intervals when performing a transmission fluid exchange service. You can find the recommended maintenance intervals for fluid replacement in your owner’s manual or right here on our website.

What is the benefit of having a transmission fluid exchange performed?
An exchange prevents your transmission from slipping due to wear and tear – and it helps prevent your vehicle from not moving at all.
By having your old transmission fluid exchanged with new fluid, you’ll be back to driving with a clean, smooth-shifting and replenished transmission system. You may experience what feels like a night-and-day change, since replenishing your system with friction-modifying additives means gears shift more smoothly.

Should I get a transmission fluid exchange on a car with high miles?
There are two schools of thought regarding a transmission fluid exchange on a high-mileage vehicle. Some experts believe that it is not a good idea to exchange transmission fluid when a vehicle’s transmission is operating properly on a car with high miles. This thinking stems from the idea that the fresh additive package in new fluid removes varnish and deposits that “hold things together.” Other experts feel new fluid with fresh additives may be all the transmission needs to return to a properly operational state when the transmission in a high-mileage vehicle is not shifting or operating correctly.
Given a transmission fluid exchange costs far less than it does to replace or rebuild a car’s transmission, we believe servicing your transmission at the intervals specified in your owner’s manual is a prudent investment, one that can prevent significant, costly damage down the line. Exchanging transmission fluid does not cause problems that don’t already exist.
How does transmission fluid break down, and what happens when it does?
Just like motor oil, transmission fluid experiences breakdown from normal wear and tear.
When a car’s transmission shifts gears, it causes friction. This, in turn, generates heat, and that heat must be carried away by the fluid. The heftier the load on the transmission, the more heat it generates and the hotter the fluid becomes. The hotter the fluid runs, the more quickly it experiences breakdown and the shorter its lifespan. When this happens, the fluid’s ability to lubricate vital parts is diminished.
Adding insult to injury, heat generated from the transmission’s mechanics causes debris from the gears, bearings and friction plates inside the transmission to compromise the quality of the fluid.
Transmission fluid contains additives to produce oxidation stability, reduce foaming and inhibit corrosion; these, too, can take a turn for the worse over time.
Changing the fluid at regular intervals is the only way to remove the impurities, boost the benefits of additives and keep your car running smoothly. Properly maintained transmission fluid cools and lubricates the moving parts, enabling hydraulics and gears to transfer power from your engine to your wheels. Now, that’s an important job.
Never wait for symptoms of transmission fluid breakdown to progress.

What symptoms may indicate my transmission fluid is breaking down?
Few signs indicate there’s a problem with your transmission fluid – until it’s too late.
Automatic transmission: A normally smooth ride may feel sluggish when shifting gears or the time it takes to shift gears may be prolonged. This is usually a sign that your transmission fluid is no longer coating your transmission parts.
Manual transmission: “Clunking,” “clashing” or waiting for your transmission to “catch” are red flags. Unfortunately, by then, damage has likely occurred.
If any of these symptoms crop up, do not ignore them. Have us inspect your ride as soon as possible in order to minimize damage to your vehicle.
Quick tip: Please check your owner’s manual for recommended transmission fluid inspections and for the location of the transmission dipstick. If your transmission has a sealed system, there won’t be a dipstick – or a way, for that matter, to inspect fluid on your own. Either way, we can check your transmission fluid levels.

What are the other ways to tell your transmission fluid is old?
Your transmission dipstick can also tell the story about your transmission fluid condition.
- The color: Automatic transmission fluid should be translucent and/or red in color. Meanwhile, healthy manual transmission fluid may appear red, dark green, blackened or even translucent. If your transmission fluid looks cloudy, or has a dark or brownish tinge, it might be time for a fluid exchange.
- Burning odor: If your transmission fluid has a burned smell, it’s time for new transmission fluid.
- Low fluid levels: Though it may help to do a transmission fluid exchange if your transmission fluid dips below a safe level, it’s really time for a transmission inspection since you shouldn’t be losing flui
Quá nhìu ý kiến tranh luận. Thôi thì làm theo sách hướng dẫn là ổn nhất các bác ah. Vì hãng xe chi nhìu tiền thuê ky sư ngâm cứu và thử nghiêm cả rồi. chất lượng,uy tín là sự sống còn của hãng. Nên họ mới khuyến cáo ng sử dụng. Chúng ta ko thể hơn họ đc. Ok làm theo hướng dẫn của hãng thôi
Tại vì bác ý làm theo cách ko có máy thay nhớt ấy mà. Nếu thay đúng cách thì phải dùng máy liên tục hút nhớt mới và xã nhớt cũ trong xe ra theo đúng qui trình đàng hoàng. Thân!
Vấn đề là người sử dụng kiểm tra xem xe dùng loại dầu nào SP3 hay SP4. Đối với những xe phải thay dầu sau 40.000 km thì hầu hết đều sử dụng dầu SP3, nghĩa là nó được dùng cho loại hộp số có que thăm. Ngược lại loại không có que thăm thì nên dùng dầu SP4 và chỉ kiểm tra sau 100k km. Lưu ý: giá dầu SP4 đắt gấp 5 lần SP3.
một số thế hệ hộp số đời cũ thì dầu hộp số at phải thay đinh kỳ. nhưng đối với đa số các dòng xe sử dụng hột số at bây giờ thì nhà sảm xuất cho sử dụng dầu vĩnh cửu gần như không phải thay thế chừ khi tháo rã hay có vấn đề gì mới thay thế. nói chung là nhớ đọc hướng dẫn bảo dưỡng của từng xe là chuổn nhất
Tuỳ điều kiện vận hành nữa bác.Mức độ chuyển số liên tục như đường xá mình cũng nên bù trừ cho hợp lý.Với lại đã là hoá chất thì có tuổi lảo hoá do điều kiện khí hậu đó bác.Tiêu chí là hợp lý và phải thay cho đúng không chỉ quy trình mà quan trọng là loại nhớt tương thích tuyệt đối nữa.Tránh trường hợp kỹ quá mà khoonh đúng
