Your Kia's transmission relies on clean and properly functioning fluid to ensure smooth shifting, efficient power delivery, and overall performance. Over time, however, transmission fluid can become contaminated with dirt, debris, and other impurities, leading to decreased performance and potential damage to the transmission components. If you've noticed signs of rough shifting, transmission slippage, or fluid leaks, it's time to prioritize a transmission fluid exchange service at Lou Fusz Kia. Let your Kia service center at Lou Fusz Kia get you back on the road today.
The most common transmission fluids are automatic and manual transmission. Automatic transmission fluid is made for vehicles with automatic transmissions and is sometimes even used for some more modern manual transmission vehicles. Automatic transmission fluid also helps with transmission cooling, brake band friction, clutch friction operation, valve body operation, torque converter operator and gear lubrication. Manual transmission fluid is commonly used for older vehicles with older manual transmissions. The heavier 75W to 140W fluid doesn’t get used for automatic transmission vehicles, and some manual transmissions won’t even use manual transmission fluid. Most later model vehicles that have manual transmissions will still use automatic transmission fluid instead.
Traditional transmission fluid uses crude oil, while synthetic transmission fluid is made through different chemical reactions. Synthetic oil is less likely to oxidize, break down or thin out in high temperatures. The best way to know which one your vehicle needs is to check the vehicle manufacturer’s specifications.
At Lou Fusz Kia, we understand how important clean transmission fluid is to your Kia’s performance and longevity. Transmission fluid lubricates internal components, helps regulate temperature, and ensures smooth gear changes. Over time, this fluid can break down and collect contaminants, which may lead to rough shifting or costly transmission issues if left unchecked.
