Automatic Transmission Fluid Exchange: Why It’s Important and How to Do It

If you’re like most drivers, you probably don’t think about your transmission until there’s a problem. And by then, it’s often too late. Transmission problems are one of the leading causes of vehicle outages, and can be very expensive to repair. That’s why it’s important for drivers of automatic transmission vehicles to take proper care of their transmission with regular maintenance. One vital service that is often overlooked is an automatic transmission fluid exchange. All Grease Pro Oil Change locations are capable of performing this service, so stop by today and rest easy knowing your transmission is in good hands!

What is an Automatic Transmission Fluid Exchange?

An automatic transmission fluid exchange is important because it helps to remove built-up contaminants and sludge from your transmission. Over time, your transmission fluid can become dirty and thick, which can cause problems like shifting issues and transmission failure. By getting an automatic transmission fluid exchange, you can help extend the life of your transmission and avoid expensive repairs down the road.

If you’re not sure how to perform an automatic transmission fluid exchange, don’t worry! The team at Grease Pro Oil Change is here to help. We’ll drain the old transmission fluid and replace it with fresh, clean fluid. We’ll also check for any leaks or other potential problems. Then, we’ll fill your transmission with the proper amount of fluid and test it to make sure everything is working correctly.

How often does your transmission need new fluid?

It depends on your vehicle and driving habits. In general, it’s a good idea to get an automatic transmission fluid exchange every 30,000 miles or so. However, if you do a lot of stop-and-go driving or tow heavy loads, you may need to do it more often. The best way to know for sure is to consult your owner’s manual or ask one of our certified technicians.

Don’t wait until it’s too late to take care of your transmission! Stop by Grease Pro Oil Change today and get an automatic transmission fluid exchange. It could save you a lot of money and headaches down the road.
