Automatic transmission diagnostic average costs and prices However, repairing or replacing an automatic transmission is a costly job, so it is better to keep to the schedule of the recommended automatic fluid change intervals. Some manufacturers don’t recommend the change as frequently as they suggest flushing it only every 100,000 miles and others don’t mention transmission flushes at all.Īutomatic transmissions are susceptible to damage over time, and sometimes a car owner will find, no amount of transmission fluid changes can prevent that. Most manufacturers recommend a transmission flush and transmission fluid change every 30,000 miles or every 2 years. It also helps valve operation, brake band friction, torque conversion as well as gear lubrication. So, all in all, it has a very important job of keeping things running smoothly within the transmission system. Its job is to lubricate mechanical parts, maintain fluid pressure, cooling, preventing oxidation, conditioning the gasket, and preventing rust. Love this stupid car though.When we consider the functions of the transmission system, the transmission fluid is a crucial component of the system's operation. Also the front bushings are due for replacement too.

Stupid fucking windshield washer fluid pump went bad too and I did some digging on the 2 series forums and they say it usually happens when you start mixing rainx in with the BMW stuff. I want this car to make to 200k at least.Įdit: just random vent. Should I get it changed? My inner feeling is yes. It’s a little jumpy in 1st to second after a cold start but other that perfectly fine. I’m right at the transmission manufacturers guidelines for getting it changed. Then said oooh they’re in FCA products too but failed to mention that the ZF8HP’s in Chrysler products are built by Chrysler which explains the higher than average failure rate in those products. He also said these transmissions are shit and he replaces one at least once a month. Cited the typical mechanics myths which may or may not have some truth to them. I went to an indie BMW/mini only mechanic first and they wanted 2800 for the same job and also refused to do the fluid change. New valve cover and gasket, new OFHG, and the orings on hoses to the housing. Has the usual oil leaks which are gonna cost 2100 at an indie euro mechanic. Want flair next to your username?
