![]() Then you used the wrong type of transmission fluid. Well, I guess that you did that without asking for your mechanic’s advice or reading Timmy’s article. Have you ever flushed your transmission but not sure what type of fluid should be used. In this case, you may require a transmission system flush. This often results in the oil’s quality reduction, fluid flow obstruction and prevents the liquid from cooling and lubricating the components. Vanish or debris build-up can clog the transmission fluid filter and other parts. Transmission is made of many components that make your vehicle move. If any of this happens, flushing the oil is needed. Besides, you may accidentally put engine oil in the transmission. Also, moisture through dipstick, high water, or flood can enter the transmission vent to contaminate the system’s fluid. The coolant can mix with the transmission oil and get contaminated if there is any rupture on the internal radiator tank, or due to the leakage. A situation like this may require a transmission flush. This can cause severe damage like vehicle surge, make gears very hard to shift, and more. When there are excess contaminants and debris in the system, it can interfere with the oil flow.

This process continues until the new fluid in the container is completely empty. The flush machine will remove a little bit of old liquid and add a bit of new oil. It relies on the transmission pump to circulate. The machine can not remove all the old fluid and replace it with 100% new oil while the engine is running. Then, they use this machine to flush your vehicle, it can pump a small amount of wrong oil into the system, thereby hurting the transmission.
