Your Chevy Malibu will also contain a gasket, pickup tube, and rubber seal which may all need to be replenished along with the filter. Your Chevy Malibu transmission filter will need to be replenished every 30,000 or 50,000 miles. Be bold to check your vehicle's maintenance guide for more information on mileage and time intervals.

Chevy Malibu transmission fluid changes are extremely critical 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 Chevy Malibu transmission will slip.

Chevy Malibu Transmission Flush

A transmission flush is usually twice the price of a fluid change due to the payment 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 other components of your transmission. A Chevy Malibu 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 necessary if your system contains dirt or debris. If the fluid is extraordinarily dark or contains other sediments, we would advocate a complete system flush instead of just exchanging the fluid. If you'd like one of our experienced Chevy Malibu technicians to examine your transmission fluid, book your transmission service online or give Hare Chevrolet a call at 3173336958.

Chevy Malibu Automatic vs Manual Transmission

Automatic and manual transmission will often require odd fluids. Automatic transmission fluids are frequently thinner and are often red or green in color. Manual transmission fluid or gear oil is thicker due to additives and other compounds logical 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 odd.

Not only are the fluids contrasting between manual and automatic transmissions but the level of heat the fluids experience is incredibly contrasting. Automatic transmissions generate a lot more heat and thus the fluid in your transmission must be replaced more normally. If you don't change your Chevy Malibu transmission fluid, your transmission will have broken metal shavings and contrasting corrosive material spread throughout the main elements of your Chevy Malibu. You should normally check the fluid levels between your fluid and transmission flush service intervals. In many cases, manual transmissions don't come equipped with a dipstick to check your fluid levels, so it can be exceedingly laborious to do. Call or visit Hare Chevrolet for more information if your transmission doesn't contain a dipstick.
