Many people prefer to buy cars with automatic transmission today. It is caused by ease in management to a large extent. That the car regularly worked, it is necessary to carry out survey regularly. Let's understand how to check oil level in the automatic transmission as this indicator not only affects technical condition of a car, but also fuel consumption. It is proved that many breakages happen because of the low-quality and insufficient level of oil. To secure itself against emergence of different problems, it is recommended to carry out oil measurement at least every two weeks.
How it is correct to check oil level in the automatic transmission?
As rather simple, everything it is possible to do process independently without the address to HUNDRED. The main thing to know certain rules. For a start it is necessary to find out where there is a checkpoint and to define its type, that is to look there is a probe or not. If it was succeeded to find two bright handles of probes, so measurement of level of liquid can be performed with their help. If the probe handle only one, then verification process more difficult.
How to check oil level in a box the automatic machine with probes:
- On probes it is possible to find four marks of a maximum and a minimum for hot and cold liquid. If you check on hot, then the level of oil has to be between the top marks. If check takes place on cold, then level has to be between the lower marks.
- If on probes there are only two marks, then oil level in any state has to be between value of a minimum and maximum.
- It is recommended to carry out an inspection several times in one-two days. Values have to be identical during all measurements that will allow to make sure, in correctness of result.
As you see, there is nothing difficult in such check and everyone will be able to cope with it.
Now we will find out how to check oil level in the car without probe. The automatic transmission has the special system of a modulation consisting of the tube and a stopper closing a special drain hole. Height of this tube allows to define norm. If to unscrew a stopper, then excess oil will flow out.
Before it is correct to check oil level, put the car on a plain surface and to set the Parking mode. It is worth getting to work on hot, that is when the car is heated-up to 90 degrees. There are models which are better for checking at the running engine. After that it is necessary to add oil to norm, and these are about 100-200 g. When it begins to drip, it will demonstrate that level correct.
