Fluid degradation over time is more common with automatic transmissions due to high heat generation from hydraulic pressure. Contamination of the transmission fluid is a bigger problem in manual systems. It happens because they have more moving parts causing more wear from friction. Fluid changing ...
Like torque converters, wet multi-plate clutches use hydraulic pressure to drive the gears. The fluid does its work inside the clutch piston, seen in the diagram above. When the clutch is engaged, hydraulic pressure inside the piston forces a set of coil springs part, which pushes a series ...
