Why an oil change is so important for automatic transmissions

MEYLE oil change kits - Protect your automatic transmission from deposits and damage

The transmission oil in automatic transmissions ages over time and the additives become depleted. Various types of wear debris also build up, particularly in the case of automatic transmissions with wet clutches, where the friction lining sits in the transmission oil. This results in deposits on the mechatronics and it also affects the mechanical components such as gear wheels. A filter medium known as the hydraulic filter is used to filter these deposits out, but this becomes saturated after a certain time. In the worst cases, this results in damage to the transmission. But this does not need to happen.

Our MEYLE experts Michael and Sascha explain to you what is important when changing automatic transmission oil and why our MEYLE oil change kits are the best solution.
