Acura RDX Transmission Fluid

A transmission fluid change is frequently half the price of a transmission flush as it requires a lot less fluid and time to perform. Acura RDX transmission fluid changes are extremely vital to keep your vehicle's transmission nice and lubricated. If you don't routinely change your fluids at least every 30,000 miles or so, you may find that your Acura RDX transmission will slip. Check your car's owner's manual for more information on the various mileage intervals in which your transmission needs the fluid replaced. At Crown Acura Richmond, we offer a variety of transmission fluid specials. You can also schedule transmission service online and save even more. if you need help browsing fluid levels, pricing, or finding a service center, give us a call at 8043618447 and one of our service advisors will gladly help.

Acura RDX Transmission Flush

A transmission flush is commonly twice the price of a fluid change due to the deposit of time the service takes and the fact that the flush not only replaces the fluid in the pan but also removes fluid from the cooler lines and different parts of your transmission. A Acura RDX transmission flush also uses about 10 quarts of fluid to completely clean and flush out the system.

How do you know if you need a Transmission Fluid Change or Transmission Flush?

A transmission flush is only vital if your system contains dirt or debris. If the fluid is immensely dark or contains diverse sediments, we would advocate a complete system flush instead of just exchanging the fluid. If you'd like one of our experienced Acura RDX technicians to examine your transmission fluid, book your transmission service online or give Crown Acura Richmond a call at 8043618447.

Acura RDX Transmission Filter

Changing your Acura RDX transmission filter isn't as delightful as other filters in your vehicle. There are multiple components to your transmission filter including the filter itself, which is ordinarily a metal plate with a fiber material that catches pollutants. Your Acura RDX will also contain a gasket, pickup tube, and rubber seal which may all need to be replenished along with the filter. Your Acura RDX transmission filter will need to be replenished every 30,000 or 50,000 miles. Be sure to check your vehicle's maintenance guide for more information on mileage and time intervals. You can also give Crown Acura Richmond a call for expert advice.

Acura RDX Automatic vs Manual Transmission

Automatic and manual transmission will frequently require discrete fluids. Automatic transmission fluids are normally thinner and are frequently red or green in color. Manual transmission fluid or gear oil is thicker due to additives and other compounds needed to lubricate the gearbox and other elements. Manual transmissions have a higher friction environment due to the way gears are changed, thus the lubricant is discrete.

Not only are the fluids disparate between manual and automatic transmissions but the level of heat the fluids experience is very disparate. Automatic transmissions generate several more heat and thus the fluid in your transmission must be changed more generally. If you don't change your Acura RDX transmission fluid, your transmission will have broken metal shavings and other corrosive material spread throughout the vital components of your Acura RDX. You should generally check the fluid levels between your fluid and transmission flush service intervals. In several cases, manual transmissions don't come equipped with a dipstick to check your fluid levels, so it can be remarkably difficult to do. Call or visit Crown Acura Richmond for more information if your transmission doesn't contain a dipstick.

The cost of a new Acura RDX transmission could be over $3,500 depending on the vehicle, however, transmission services such as fluid changes and a transmission fluid flush are considerably less expensive, in some cases costing less than $150. These services are troublesome to prolonging the life of your Acura RDX transmission. At Crown Acura Richmond, we offer a variety of transmission repair specials and transmission parts discounts.
