For it to function properly, the oil must be changed at regular intervals, the cooling system must be checked and the deposits that accumulate over time must be cleaned. Without regular maintenance, wear on the transmission accelerates and costly repairs may be required.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our company offers automatic transmission maintenance and service with professional equipment and experienced technicians. Regular maintenance is essential for a longer life and trouble-free driving! <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Automatic Transmission Oil Change and Oil Filtration<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In automatic transmissions, oil provides gear shifts by creating hydraulic pressure and at the same time prevents wear by lubricating the gears. However, over time, the oil loses its properties, becomes contaminated and deposits form. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2705 <strong>When should the transmission fluid be changed?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Within the 60,000 &#8211; 80,000 km range specified by the vehicle manufacturer<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>There is a delay, jerk or knocking when shifting gears<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Transmission fluid is dark in color or emits a foul odor<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2705 <strong>How do we do it?<\/strong><strong><br\/><\/strong>\ud83d\udd27 Complete draining of old oil and cleaning of the system<br\/>\ud83d\udd27 Use of OEM (original) or high quality oil<br\/>\ud83d\udd27 Replacing the transmission filter<br\/>\ud83d\udd27 Checking oil level and pressure<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\ude97 <strong>Advantages<\/strong><strong><br\/><\/strong>\u2714\ufe0f Smoother gear shifts<br\/>\u2714\ufe0f Extended transmission life<br\/>\u2714\ufe0f Reduced fuel consumption<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Transmission Cooling System Checks<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The automatic transmission generates high heat during operation. The transmission cooling system is activated to compensate this heat. If the cooling system does not work properly, the transmission may overheat and malfunction.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2705 Checking the <strong>transmission<\/strong>radiator and hoses<br\/>\u2705 Inspection of coolant for leaks or deficiencies<br\/>\u2705 Checking overheating sensors<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\ude97 <strong>Advantages<\/strong><strong><br\/><\/strong>\u2714\ufe0f Prevents malfunctions due to overheating<br\/>\u2714\ufe0f Improves transmission performance<br\/>\u2714\ufe0f Extends oil life<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gearbox Washing and Cleaning (Getriebesp\u00fclung)<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over time, deposits and metal particles can build up inside the transmission.
