The transmission of a vehicle is a complex device that can break down for a variety of reasons. One of the most common is the overheating of the transmission oil. For those who live along the Sunshine Coast, MillerMatics & Mechanical can perform a transmission oil cooler installation that provides strong benefits and extends the life of your transmission.
The transmission consists of the gears that pull your vehicle down the road. The more strain on the transmission, the hotter the oil that lubricates the gears will become. The heating can become intensified if you are pulling a trailer or carrying heavy materials in the vehicle itself. Even if you drive in a mostly empty vehicle, there is still the strain put on the transmission which may cause overheating to occur.
Effects of Transmission Overheating
When the transmission overheats, the oil that lubricates the gears can break down. This means that the fluid is no longer able to properly lubricate and protect the parts inside the transmission. The result is that the parts undergo more friction which in turn can create damage. Small cracks can become big fissures which wear down or break apart the gears inside.
This means that overheating can lead to transmission failure which requires a major repair. What is worse is that even if you pay for the repair or a rebuild of your transmission, the same thing will happen again unless you install a cooling system to keep the temperatures down. Otherwise, you run the risk of having a major issue develop with your transmission.
How a Transmission Oil Cooler Installation Can Help?
The oil cooler will keep the transmission oil from overheating. By keeping it at the normal temperatures, it will not breakdown. This means that your transmission will run smoother and more efficiently over the long haul. For those who haul trailers, an oil cooler for the transmission is a must. But there is another strong benefit to having an oil cooler installed.
By keeping the oil at the right temperature, your transmission works more efficiently. This means that you can save money on fuel costs. All things considered an oil cooler installation will pay for itself just by the savings you earn from using less fuel in your vehicle. Plus, it may also prevent certain transmission issues from occurring which saves you even more money.
Considering the cost of an oil cooler, it is a fraction compared to a major repair or rebuild of your transmission. By spending a few hundred dollars today, you may save thousands tomorrow by keeping the oil temperature within normal parameters.

Auto transmission fluid is the hydraulic system that provides the necessary pressure for the system to properly operate. Transmission fluid is not the same as oil as it consists of different properties that reduce its expansion when heated.
Thus, the fluid flows constantly through the transmission lines. However, over time the additives in the fluid will fade and it will need to be replaced.
