Checking the automatic transmission fluid (ATF) is a crucial part of maintaining your vehicle. ATF is a special type of fluid that lubricates the gears and other moving parts in your transmission, helping it function smoothly and efficiently.
Over time, ATF can deteriorate due to heat, friction, and contamination. This can lead to decreased performance, premature wear, and even transmission failure. Regular checks and replacements of ATF are essential to ensure the longevity and optimal functioning of your vehicle’s transmission.
