9 Hello everyone, this is a column focusing on car repair and maintenance. There are car secrets you don’t know here, and it will teach you how to avoid big pits on the road to car maintenance. I believe that not only you, but also many people have a certain hazy feeling about the automotive aftermarket. Here will help you uncover the unknown stories of car repair and maintenance.
It is time for country man to change the gearbox oil. The number of kilometers plays an absolute role in the gearbox oil. If the replacement is not carried out in time, it will lead to ineffective upshifts and downshifts, serious setbacks in shifting, and increased fuel consumption.
After inquiry, this country man uses Aisin’s automatic transmission.
Using a fully automatic transmission oil changer to replace the transmission oil can solve the problem of incomplete oil change. At the same time, the transmission oil consumed is also huge.
The two interfaces of AB are two ports leading to the transmission oil radiator. Using the excuse of the automatic transmission oil radiator to replace it can avoid removing the oil bottom bolts, and it is simple and quick.
No. 1 refers to the interface for the transmission oil radiator.
The external power supply for the automatic transmission replacement machine is 12V. It can eliminate all the drawbacks of the gravity oil change method, which is also the more mainstream oil change method for automatic transmissions nowadays.
The gearbox oil uses Aisin’s afw+, which is an enhanced version of the gearbox oil.
The naturally worn dust of the clutch plates in the gearbox is mixed in it. The color of the gearbox oil will be oxidized after long-term use, and the automatic gearbox oil needs to be replaced. If the automatic transmission oil turns deep black and has a burnt smell, it means that the internal disk clutch has been burned and the transmission will face maintenance.
The fully automatic oil change method has a huge demand for gearbox fluid, reaching as much as 12 liters, which is almost three times the fluid volume of the traditional gravity oil change method.
The oil inside the torque converter can also be replaced, which is beyond the reach of traditional gravity oil change methods.
By comparing the old and new oils, you can clearly see that the old oil on the left is very dark in color. The color of the new oil on the right side is clear and transparent.
Exchange time and exchange speed can be set.
The whole process took 5 minutes and 34 seconds. I would like to remind you that the automatic transmission oil must be started before the vehicle can be exchanged.
This is a way to check whether there is enough oil in an automatic transmission.
There was only one technician operating the entire process. The previous one required two people to work together to replace it, which took a huge amount of time. Advances in science and technology have replaced a large amount of manual labor, which you and I had never dared to imagine before.
