Automatic transmission cars provide driving comfort compared to manual transmissions, especially when in traffic jams.
However, the owners must give extra care to the automatic transmission car to reduce the occurrence of fatal damage.
Here are tips for maintaining a car with an automatic transmission:
- Transmission oil
The transmission oil volume must be just right for it to function properly. Transmission oil leaks in automatic cars can cause serious problems.
- Transmission position
When finding an uphill road, it is better for the driver to choose a low gear, for example L or 1. That means the transmission will be locked in that gear until it is moved again to position D.
- Change transmission oil
The owner must flush or drain the automatic transmission oil every 20,000 km.
- Don’t just push the automatic car when it breaks down
Do not push your car manually to start the engine when it is off. Call a mechanic or take the car to a repair shop.
Those are some things that can be done so that the transmission components of the car are maintained.
