What Causes Transmission Problems?

Transmission problems are primarily caused by thermal fluid degradation, internal mechanical friction wear, and electronic control failures. When transmission fluid exceeds its 175°F optimal operating temperature, the fluid loses hydraulic pressure, causing internal seals to shrink, clutch plates to slip, and critical components to permanently fail.
