This is to prevent excessive damage to the auto gearbox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_maintain_an_automatic_gearbox\"><\/span>How to maintain an automatic gearbox<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Automatic gearbox maintenance might not be easy. It needs proper care to ensure that the gearbox is always in the best condition and has a long lifespan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, we share helpful, essential tips that you can follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Change_the_Automatic_Transmission_Fluid_ATF\"><\/span>Change the Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The gearbox&#8217;s automatic transmission fluid (ATF) needs to be replaced once a year. However, it depends on your driving style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Long-used ATF oil contains oil sediments and iron fragments that increase the oil&#8217;s viscosity. As a result, the oil damages the gearbox performance and increases the internal temperature more than usual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, dirty ATF oil may also clog the auto filter in the gearbox and cause rough gear changes while driving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Replace_the_auto_filter\"><\/span>Replace the auto filter<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Recent car models usually have two types of filters in the gearbox. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of them is placed inside the gearbox. It does not have to be replaced unless a critical problem arises. In such a situation, it needs to undergo an overhaul process. Meanwhile, another filter is on the gearbox oil sump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure that you replace the filter according to the schedule. You may refer to a mechanic if you are unsure whether to replace the filter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ensure_proper_maintenance\"><\/span>Ensure proper maintenance<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We hope the information will be of help in case you sense any problem with your car gearbox. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, make sure that you have valid <a href=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/car-insurance-guide-in-malaysia\/\">car insurance<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/what-you-need-to-know-about-roadtax\/\">roadtax<\/a> to prevent any problems in the future.
