Frequently Asked Questions
Find quick answers to the most common questions about our products, services and support. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, our team is always here to help.
If you’re experiencing issues with your transmission not engaging or the gears not clutching properly, it may be due to several factors. Please follow these troubleshooting steps to diagnose the problem:
- Check your transmission fluid levels: Low fluid levels can result in inadequate hydraulic pressure, which is required to engage gears.
- Inspect your hydraulic pressures: If the fluid level is adequate, verify that the hydraulic system is generating enough pressure.
- For manual transmissions with mechanical shift: Check the gear linkages for any signs of wear or damage. Ensure they are correctly connected and functioning smoothly.
- For transmissions with electronic shift: Inspect the solenoid connections to ensure they are secure and corrosion-free. Verify that all gear selector linkages are moving into full detent positions. This ensures that the gears are properly selected.
Experiencing a slipping transmission can be concerning and typically indicates a maintenance issue or internal wear. To address this problem, please follow these steps:
- Check the transmission fluid level: A low fluid level can lead to insufficient hydraulic pressure, causing the transmission to slip. Ensure it’s filled to the manufacturer’s recommended level.
- Verify the type of transmission fluid used: Using the incorrect type of fluid can adversely affect transmission operation. Refer to your vehicle’s manual for the correct specifications.
- Sample the transmission fluid for debris: Look for signs of metal shavings or other contaminants in the fluid, which could indicate internal wear or damage.
- Change the transmission filter: A clogged filter can restrict fluid flow, leading to slipping. Replacing the filter may resolve this issue.
- Clean out the transmission suction screens: Similar to the filter, suction screens can become clogged and should be cleaned to ensure proper fluid intake.
Discolouration and a burnt smell of transmission oil can indicate various issues, depending on the type of vehicle or equipment you are using. Here’s what you should do based on your specific application: For Marine Vessels:
- Check Ship’s Log: Look for any recorded instances of windmilling propellers, which can cause undue stress and overheating in the transmission, leading to oil degradation.
- Check Pressure: Verify that the transmission is operating within the correct hydraulic pressure range, as low pressure can lead to slippage and overheating.
- Check Cable Adjustments: Ensure that control cables are properly adjusted for correct operation, as misadjustments can cause improper gear engagement and contribute to overheating.
- Check for Worn-Out / Slipping Clutch Plates: Inspect the clutch plates for wear. Slipping clutch plates can cause the transmission to overheat, resulting in burnt and discoloured transmission fluid.
Yes, we provide tailored Service Level Agreements (SLAs) designed around your operational needs. Every business is different, which is why our terms are fully customisable to match the specific demands of your equipment, duty cycles, and maintenance strategy. Through MyDriveTrain, we offer SLA options that can include guaranteed response times, priority engineer attendance, parts stocking, and service-exchange provisions to keep your equipment running with minimal downtime.
Our goal is to work in partnership with you to build an SLA that supports your performance targets, strengthens reliability, and ensures your fleet remains productive throughout its lifecycle.
