I can't begin to understand the oil lab reports; wish I could!
Regarding ATF, there are those who believe in services and those who believe in lifetime fluids and those who don't care either way.
I believe there are detergents to remove contaniments and keep things clean; these contaniments are suspended in the fluid or form sludge, right?
So, what gets depleted? What gets worn? I think viscosity properties must be diminished, right?
I understand heat is a tranny killer. I am guessing the fluid gets burnt which leads to poor lubrication and transmission failure. Please correct and amplify for me.
I appreciate your thoughts.
