ACT has several modes of operation. The position of the P-parking. Chosen at a stop on a longer or shorter period of time. Management KPA is off, the output shaft is locked boxes, vehicle movement is impossible. Inclusion P mode on the fly can cause damage to the manual! Reverse R included only when a full stop cars. Otherwise, the output of the CP system is virtually assured.
Neutral position N disables the locking mechanism output shaft. However, experts do not recommend include the N during the movement. Mode motion D. His appointment, choose the appropriate number from the first through fifth gears. The lion's share of automatic transmission failure associated with the wrong oil level. Control the level of preferably not less than once per month (some experts recommend checking probe weekly). Check should only be warmed up to operating temperature butter.
Warm-ACP is on the move: we must overcome some 15 km (at least) that oil has reached in a box placed 80-85 degrees. The probe has a label of cold and hot condition of the oil, the final level is checked only on heated ACTs. The difference between hot and cold levels can reach 30 mm. If too low, because both used at a high CP may be damaged. As for the "eternal" oil poured into "automatic" once and for all – then it is a myth! Any oil, even synthetic, ages and loses its original properties. The main factor affecting the service life of transmission fluid – a high temperature. Experts often recommend changing oil every 50-60 thousand km And sometimes more. The first and basic rule, one for all vehicles with automatic transmission, reads as follows: engine starts only in position P or N. Some drivers argue that the need to involve a neutral N transfer during traffic light stop, the other the opposite. Experts believe transfer lever to the N entirely superfluous, in fact – is harmful. For extra manipulation of the box does not increase its share. Now on towing a car with automatic transmission. Ideally, of course, it is desirable to avoid using the services of a tow truck. However, if the situation is hopeless, the experts recommend to follow the formula of 50-50. Dragging a distance of 50 km at a speed not 50 km / h. Before you start hauling pour oil above upper mark. And do not forget to bring the level back to normal! Based on materials from the site
