The Right Fluid Matters

Today's transmission requirements are more demanding than ever. Consumers want products that reduce emissions, and improve fuel economy — all while enhancing comfort and reliability.

The technology continues to change. There are new hardware configurations and new materials to work with. Plus, each transmission type is engineered differently. So development of fluids must also evolve to ensure consumers will have the right fluid for the right application.

The tool provides an overview of automatic and continuously variable transmissions. Click through the tool to read more about the critical differences between these types of transmissions — and how fluids should address their different needs to ensure that the transmissions function properly.
