Instruction
1 To avoid the premature failure of an automatic transmission, avoid quick drive, braking and sharp turns and other maneuvers on the rough road.
Cars with automatic transmission designed for city driving, that is, for a peaceful and steady motion. The appearance of violent jolting of when switching speeds should alert the driver. When driving at high speed a sudden push can cause loss of control and accidents. Even rare sporadic aftershocks indicate that the automatic transmission needs repair.
2 Before starting the repair of an automatic transmission, you can purchase all the necessary repair kits (which one will suit your car, you will prompt in the auto parts store). Himself repair is best done alone, but if you fix the car on the lift or put on a viewing hole and set the recoil device can cope alone.
Under the hood, be sure to remove any items, and other items that prevent loosening of bolts. Use the special hexagon head or overhead, the use of surrogate instruments that can spoil the bolt head is not allowed. Before removing the automatic gearbox should be drained from it oil or remove it as carefully as possible so that it does not start to pour. Location bolts depends on the car: some cars they are in the flywheel housing, and the others - close to the torque converter.
3 After the removal of the automatic transmission, radiator flush from oil residue. Itself gearbox and rinse off dust and foreign bodies. Now find the cause of the failure mechanism. The main of them - is the lack of oil, and the failure of the torque converter. To solve the first problem, rinse thoroughly with a transmission from the old oil and fill new. In the second case, the torque converter to be replaced by a new one. One should check whether both pins are in place.
In the absence of one of them fabricate the second throught the pin as an example. Overall dimensions of both pins must be the same. By installing the box back, make sure that it fits close to the body torque converter. Order of a tightening of bolts and effort that should be made to them, indicated in the repair documentation and measurement of tightening force to be applied torque tool. Before you drive a car with automatic transmission repaired at a busy road, be sure to try it on a control on a deserted road.
