Why do I have to change my transmission fluid?
Like the oil in your vehicle's engine, under normal driving conditions, heat and oxidation causes deterioration of the fluid, while abrasives and contaminates in your transmission increase. Over time, your transmission becomes more vulnerable to costly breakdown, and loses its peak operationg performance qualities.
To fight deterioration, your vehicle manufacturer recommends changing the fluid in your transmission at regular intervals. These intervals vary from vehicle to vehicle, and as driving conditions warrant, but most leading automotive manufacturers recommend changing the fluid every 15,000 to 50,000 miles (see your owners manual and warranty documentation for maintenance specifications for your particular vehicle).
What about my car's warranty?
Changing the fluid in your transmission at regular intervals is recommended by your vehicle manufacturer, and may actually be required as part of your extended warranty obligations (see your warranty for details). That's why it's essential to perform regular maintenance to your vehicle that meets or exceeds the manufacturer's recommendations.
