Transmission System FAQs
A machine that performs a complete automatic transmission fluid exchange by displacing old fluid with new throughout the circuit, including the torque converter and cooler lines, rather than draining only what sits in the pan.
On most automatic transmissions a pan drain removes only a portion of the total fluid, with the majority remaining in the torque converter and cooler circuit. That is the gap an exchange machine closes. Alamo can help work through the sizing against your actual operating conditions.
Mahle FluidPRO automatic transmission exchange machines, including the ATX-280 and the ATX-3 Plus Boost, covering transmission fluid exchange service for shops offering it as a standard menu item.
Coverage depends on the adapters available for the machine and the vehicle's cooler line configuration. Verify adapter coverage against your actual service population before purchasing, since adapter fitment determines what you can run through the machine.
Machine cycle time is a portion of the job; total time also includes connection, verification, and fluid level check. Confirm expected cycle time on the specific machine, and plan bay time around the full procedure rather than the machine cycle alone.
Requirements vary by model. Confirm the electrical supply and any air requirement for the specific machine before installation, and make sure the bay where it will live has both available. Retrofitting power to a bay after the machine arrives is a common and avoidable delay.
Follow the manufacturer's verification interval. Volume accuracy matters — a machine that over or under delivers produces overfills or incomplete exchanges, both of which cause driveability problems in the customer's vehicle.
