Symptoms that tell us that the automatic transmission fluid is severely deteriorated

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Transmission

In this video, some problems that can occur on an automatic transmission are presented to us; if when we start instead of feeling a smooth engagement, we feel a sudden engagement, this is a symptom of worn transmission fluid or a failing transmission; another symptom is shifts that are no longer smooth, but rather rough. This also indicates that the fluid is worn out and the transmission has problems. A third symptom is that when shifts occur, there is also an increase in engine RPM. This also means that the transmission or fluid are deteriorating. If the fuel consumption of our vehicle increases significantly, it indicates the fourth symptom of worn out fluid or transmission; the fifth and most serious is that the vehicle may not even start on an incline.
