30s class | How often is it appropriate to change transmission fluids?


Transmission oil change

* According to the American Transmission Repair Association (ATSG) statistics show that there are 13 million automatic transmission failures in the United States every year, and more than 90% are caused by oil changes that are not timely.


Transmission oil if not replaced for a long time

Its viscosity will become thinner

The lubrication performance and sealing performance decreased

Resistance rise

Increase in wear

Can lead to a bad shift

Poor ride performance

They don't even shift gears


If the oil deteriorates


Oil cooling performance and anti-oxidation performance decreased


Easy to produce oil temperature too high problem


Further shorten


Oil and transmission component life




So transmission fluid

How often is it appropriate to replace?


Because the replacement cycle of motor vehicle transmission oil is different because of the model and design requirements, the replacement time is not unified standard, the most accurate way is to look at the maintenance manual of your car, if the vehicle manual clearly gives the replacement mileage or use time, it can be implemented in accordance with the standard.



If your vehicle maintenance manual does not have such indicators or accidentally lost the manual, you can refer to this standard to determine the oil change time according to the transmission type:



Oil change standard


Manual transmission recommended 3 years or 50,000 km to change the transmission oil


It is recommended to change the transmission oil for 3 years or 60,000 kilometers


The CVT and DSG dual-clutch transmissions are recommended to have an oil change every 4 years or 80,000 km



In addition, if you feel uncomfortable when driving, cold start is weak, easy to slip, even if the mileage is not reached, you should check whether you need to replace the transmission oil.
