What is the difference between manual transmission fluid and automatic transmission fluid?

Automobile transmission oil has manual transmission oil and automatic transmission oil, the nature of the two kinds of oil is very different, so it can not be changed at will, substitute or mix.

What are the differences between manual transmission fluid and automatic transmission fluid? Master Bang will tell you about it.

01 Viscosity

The viscosity of manual transmission oil is higher than that of automatic transmission oil, which is convenient to better lubricate the grinding surface of manual transmission gear. The fluidity of automatic transmission fluid is higher than that of manual transmission fluid, which facilitates faster and more stable transmission of engine power.

02 Heat dissipation

The heat dissipation of automatic transmission oil is higher than that of manual transmission oil, avoiding too high temperature, reducing lubricity and damaging the moving parts of automatic transmission stuck, sealing parts leakage, etc.

03 Color

Manual transmission oil is mostly light yellow (new oil), and the color gradually darkens and darkens after use. Most of the automatic transmission oil is bright red (there are also a few light yellow), and the color gradually darkens after use, becoming dark red and reddish-brown.

In addition, transmission oil needs to be replaced regularly, generally under normal driving conditions, it takes 2 years or 40,000 kilometers to replace a transmission oil, most of the transmission failure is due to overheating or transmission oil has not been replaced for a long time, abnormal wear, impurities or failure caused.

When your car has symptoms such as soaring fuel consumption, shifting efforts, and severe setbacks, it is necessary to replace the transmission oil.

The automatic transmission fluid performs the functions of transmission, lubrication, hydraulics and heat dissipation. 90% of automatic transmission faults originate from automatic transmission oil, so it is necessary to choose transmission oil with guaranteed quality produced by regular manufacturers.

Ribon transmission fluid has excellent lubricity, high and low temperature performance and thermal stability to help improve transmission work and make shifting smoother. Efficient oil film strength and anti-wear properties help reduce wear on the transmission and extend transmission life.
