Disadvantages of the Aisin TF-62SN gearbox
- The service life of this gearbox depends heavily on the cleanliness and condition of its cooling system.
- With long-term driving with a clogged heat exchanger, you will have to overhaul the gearbox by 150,000 km.
- It is also important to change the oil every 60,000 km, or wear products will clog the hydraulic unit.
- With active use, the torque converter locking clutch wears out by 150 thousand km.
- And if it is not replaced in time, it will very quickly break the oil pump bushing.
- Then it usually breaks the bushings of the sun gear, rear cover and drum K3.
- After 250 thousand km, there is a seizure of the satellite axle and a breakdown of the differential.
