Overfilling an engine with oil can indeed lead to transmission problems, albeit indirectly. Excessive oil can lead to increased pressure within the engine, causing oil to find its way into areas it shouldn’t be. For example, it can seep past seals and gaskets, reaching the clutch assembly in vehicles with a manual transmission. This contaminates the clutch, leading to slippage, erratic shifting, and even failure. In automatic transmissions, although less common, overfilled oil can elevate crankcase pressure and lead to seal leaks, potentially compromising the transmission’s hydraulic operations by allowing engine oil to mix with transmission fluid. It’s pivotal to stick to manufacturers’ specifications on oil levels to circumvent such issues. Regular checks and maintenance are advisable to ensure optimal vehicle performance and longevity.
