2012 Toyota Tacoma Transmission Flush

A transmission flush is generally twice the price of a fluid change due to the amount 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 back-up parts of your transmission. A 2012 Toyota Tacoma 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 highly dark or contains extra sediments, we would recommend a complete system flush instead of just exchanging the fluid.

2012 Toyota Tacoma Automatic vs Manual Transmission

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

Not only are the fluids divergent between manual and automatic transmissions but the level of heat the fluids experience is very divergent. Automatic transmissions generate a lot more heat and thus the fluid in your transmission must be changed more mostly. If you don't change your 2012 Toyota Tacoma transmission fluid, your transmission will have broken metal shavings and other corrosive material spread throughout the big components of your 2012 Toyota Tacoma. You should mostly check the fluid levels between your fluid and transmission flush service intervals. In plentiful cases, manual transmissions don't come equipped with a dipstick to check your fluid levels, so it can be highly troublesome to do. Call or visit Nalley Toyota Union City for more information if your transmission doesn't contain a dipstick.
