Reasons for oil leakage from the automatic transmission heat exchanger:
* Damaged Seals: The seals located between the heat exchanger and the transmission housing can wear out over time or become damaged due to excessive pressure.
* Cracks or holes in the heat exchanger: Damage to the heat exchanger may result in oil leakage.
* Incorrect installation: If the heat exchanger is installed incorrectly, it may cause oil leakage.
* Warping: Extreme temperatures or excessive pressure can cause the heat exchanger to warp, resulting in oil leakage.
*Clogged Filter: A clogged filter can cause pressure to build up inside the heat exchanger, which can cause oil leakage.
Possible solutions:
*Replacement of seals: Damaged seals must be replaced.
* Heat Exchanger Repair: Cracks or holes in the heat exchanger can be repaired by welding or soldering. In some cases, the heat exchanger may need to be replaced.
* Installation adjustment: If the heat exchanger is not installed correctly, it must be reinstalled.
* Filter replacement: A clogged filter must be replaced.
Cautions:
* An oil leak from the automatic transmission heat exchanger can lead to catastrophic consequences for the transmission.
* Repairs to oil leaks from the automatic transmission heat exchanger must be performed by a qualified mechanic.
* It is recommended to regularly check the oil level in the automatic transmission and inspect the heat exchanger for leaks.
