Additional external automatic transmission filter
An external automatic transmission filter is a device that is installed outside the automatic transmission housing and is designed for additional cleaning of transmission fluid.
Advantages of using an additional external automatic transmission filter:
* Increasing the service life of the automatic transmission by reducing the level of contamination of the transmission fluid.
* Improved automatic transmission performance by maintaining fluid cleanliness.
* Reducing wear of automatic transmission parts caused by contamination.
* Extending transmission fluid change intervals.
Types of additional external automatic transmission filters:
* Passive filters: Use mesh or paper elements to trap contaminants.
* Active filters: Using magnetic or electrostatic components to remove even small particles.
* Combined filters: Combine elements of passive and active filtration.
Installation of an additional external automatic transmission filter:
Installing an additional external automatic transmission filter is a relatively simple process, which is usually performed as follows:
1. Determining a suitable location to install the filter.
2. Disconnect the associated cooling line.
3. Installation of adapters and connection of the filter to the cooling line.
4. Attach the filter to the selected location.
5. Restoring the transmission fluid level.
Selecting an additional external automatic transmission filter:
When choosing an additional external automatic transmission filter, the following factors should be taken into account:
* Compatible with your specific automatic transmission model.
*Filtration efficiency.
* Filter size and location.
* Cost and availability.
Servicing the additional external automatic transmission filter:
Additional external automatic transmission filters usually do not require special maintenance. However, it is recommended to check them for contamination and replace them if necessary. The replacement interval may vary depending on the specific filter design and operating conditions.
