Transmission Oil Service

Transmission Oil Service

Essential for Smooth Performance and Longevity

Regular transmission oil service is critical to maintaining your vehicle’s gearbox health and driving experience. Transmission fluid acts as both a lubricant and coolant, reducing friction, dissipating heat, and preventing corrosion within the transmission system. Over time, heat and debris degrade the fluid, leading to delayed gear shifts, grinding noises, or even overheating-symptoms that can cause irreversible damage if ignored.


Key Benefits


  • Smooth gear changes: Clean fluid ensures seamless shifting and responsive performance.
  • Extended lifespan: Fresh oil minimizes wear on gears, clutches, and internal components, avoiding costly replacements.
  • Improved fuel efficiency: Reduced friction allows the transmission to operate efficiently, lowering fuel consumption.
  • Preventive care: Regular fluid flushes remove contaminants and prevent sludge buildup, safeguarding against major repairs.

Service Intervals

While manufacturer recommendations vary, automatic transmissions typically require fluid changes every 60,000–100,000 miles (or sooner for heavy-duty use), while manual gearboxes need attention every 30,000–60,000 miles. Always consult a professional to determine the optimal schedule for your vehicle.


Neglecting transmission oil service risks severe damage, but timely maintenance ensures reliability, performance, and peace of mind on the road.
