Improper installation of the automatic transmission can lead to a number of serious consequences, including:
Transmission damage:
* Improper clearance or alignment can cause premature wear or failure of gears, bearings and other components.
Fluid leaks:
* Improperly installed seals or gaskets can cause transmission fluid to leak, resulting in loss of pressure and overheating.
Noise and vibration:
* Incorrect installation may cause unwanted noise or vibration during automatic transmission operation.
Switching problems:
* Incorrect installation may prevent smooth shifting, resulting in jerking or slipping.
Damage to other components:
*In some cases, an incorrectly installed automatic transmission can damage adjacent components such as the driveshaft, engine or transmission.
Other consequences:
* Loss of vehicle control: A faulty automatic transmission can result in reduced power or problems with deceleration.
* Danger: A faulty automatic transmission can create a dangerous situation on the road.
*High Repair Costs: An incorrectly installed automatic transmission can require extensive and costly repairs.
To avoid these consequences, it is important:
* Have the automatic transmission installed by a certified mechanic.
