I have done some research and have found that many transmissions fail every year and I believe changing fluids regularly is good preventative maintenance! A vehicle’s automatic transmission fluid should be changed at manufacturer recommended intervals to assure trouble-free shifting and to extend the life of the transmission. We should always consult the Owner’s Manual and replace this important fluid as suggested. Replacing all of the old fluid with fresh fluid will better clean, cool and lubricate the internal transmission parts.
A traditional transmission service will only replace about 30% of the old fluid. At one time it was impossible to drain the fluid trapped in areas such as the torque converter, clutch drums and valve body. With newer technology and equipment, professional shops are able to replace virtually 100% of the old fluid with new transmission fluid. As fluid ages, contaminants build up, viscosity breaks down and the ransmission is left vulnerable to breakdowns even from normal daily wear and tear.
