General recommendations:

* Maintain the gearbox in a timely manner. Check and replace the transmission oil and filter regularly according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.
* Avoid aggressive driving. Sudden acceleration and braking can cause premature wear of the transmission.
* Drive smoothly and carefully. Reduce speed before stopping and try to avoid sudden gear changes.
*Do not tow heavy loads. Towing can place excessive stress on the transmission.
* Do not overheat the gearbox. Avoid spinning or driving at high speeds for long periods of time.

Special tips for extending the life of your automatic transmission:

*Use the correct transmission fluid. Use the fluid recommended by the manufacturer.
* Replace the pan plug when changing the oil. The plug prevents oil leakage.
* Check the fluid level in the gearbox. Check the fluid level regularly and add if necessary.
* Use “parking” mode (P). Always turn on the “park” mode when the car is parked, even for a short time.
* Avoid neutral (N) at traffic lights. This can cause wear on the freewheel.
* Do not switch to Drive (D) while driving. This may damage the gearbox.
* Use Parking mode (P) to park on a slope. Do not use neutral gear or park mode when leaving the car in a parking lot.
* Diagnose and repair leaks. Quickly detect and repair any transmission fluid leaks.
* Avoid flushing the gearbox. Washing may remove the protective coating and cause damage.

By following these tips, you can extend the life of your automatic transmission and ensure it performs optimally.
