Buying a used car with an automatic transmission must be taken responsibly. In this case, it is important not to make a hasty decision, but to carefully check the operation of the automatic transmission.
If you decide to buy a car with a machine, then you need to know how to identify possible defects. This article will help with this. It describes several methods that are best applied sequentially. You should always start checking with oil.
Checking the oil in the automatic transmission
It is convenient to assess the condition of the transmission fluid using a dipstick. But not all machines have a design equipped with a probe. To check the oil in such a box, go with the seller to a service station. The specialist will conduct a complete diagnosis and tell you exactly what condition the automatic transmission is in.
If the box has a dipstick, then you can check its liquid yourself. This must be done in parking mode (P) and with the engine running. While the engine is running, you need to remove the dipstick from the box, wipe it with a cloth and insert it into place. Then pull it out again and look at the level, color, smell the smell.
Level
In a cold box, the oil should be at the “Cool” mark. And after the machine warms up to a working temperature of 65 degrees, the level will rise closer to the “Hot” mark. If you can see that the oil on the dipstick is less than the prescribed norm, this may indicate foaming, fluid leakage, or poor-quality repairs.
Excess transmission fluid is harmful to the machine, as well as a lack. At high speeds, the oil foams and flows out through the nozzles. Subsequently, it will become less than the prescribed norm, and the internal parts of the box will overheat.
Smell
In a serviceable machine, the oil has a natural smell. If it smells of burning, this is a sign of overheating of the rubbing parts in the box. Low oil pressure in the hydraulic system is the cause of poor compression between the clutches. As a result, they slip and wear out.
This problem has far-reaching consequences associated with the appearance of metal chips. Metal particles can clog the channels in the valve body, which leads to oil starvation. Gradually, the structural elements will be erased, and the box will completely fail.
Color
By the color of the transmission fluid, you can also judge the condition of the box. With a short run, the oil acquires a dark red or dark brown hue. This is considered a good condition lubricating fluid.
A large automatic transmission run on the same oil changes it to black. Such a transmission fluid loses its lubricating properties. If the oil is black, then most likely the internal elements are already seriously damaged and the machine needs expensive repairs.
After making sure that the oil is in good condition, get into the car and check the gear shift. This should be done after the engine has warmed up. Apply the brake before shifting gears. Look carefully and listen to the operation of the machine. Evaluate the smoothness of switching and make sure there are no jerks, shocks or delays.
- Smoothness. Move the lever to check this setting. Engage reverse first, then neutral and drive. The first time, move the lever slowly through all gears. And in the second, repeat the switching, but at an accelerated pace.
- Jerks, pushes, delays. An automaton with defects will give its status during operation. When shifting gears, you should not feel jerks or shocks. Pay attention to the delay as well. In a serviceable automatic transmission, the gears turn on quickly. If the delay lasts more than one second, this is a sign of box wear.
Carrying out a "Stall speed test"
Stall speed test - is carried out after the engine warms up to operating temperature. The test helps to identify box defects in drive mode (D) and reverse gear (R). During the test, the number of maximum engine revolutions with locked wheels and wide open throttle is determined. According to these values, one can judge the condition of the automatic transmission.
Test results for different brands of cars are different. Specific values are indicated in the service book of the machine. If you want to conduct a test, keep in mind that it forces the machine to work at its limit. But the stall speed test is safe and will not harm the box under the following conditions:
- the duration of the test shall not exceed five seconds;
- The machine is initially in good condition.
Therefore, before testing the automatic transmission, ask the seller for permission. Failure can be regarded as uncertainty that the machine will pass the test. And if you give your consent, follow the technique described below.
Test technique
- Warm up the engine to 90-100 degrees Celsius.
- Completely block the wheels, to do this, install the wheel chocks, raise the handbrake and press the brake pedal.
- Shift the shift lever to drive mode (D).
- Press the gas pedal to the floor for five seconds.
- Look at the tachometer and note the number of revolutions shown in the last second.
- Move the automatic lever to the neutral position (N), and release the brake pedal.
- Check the result with the values given in the vehicle's technical book.
The same test should be done in reverse gear (R). But first, take a break for a few minutes to let the oil in the box cool down. To do this, let the engine idle.
Test results
- If the test values are less than normal, then this indicates a poor condition of the engine, which cannot develop sufficient power.
- If the test result exceeded the permissible speed limits, this indicates worn forward and reverse clutches.
Having carried out the preliminary checks described above, proceed to testing the box in motion. Offer the seller a ride. Find a safe and spacious area where there are not many cars driving. While driving, check several modes of operation of the machine:
- Smooth acceleration. Accelerate smoothly to 60 km/h. While the car is gaining this speed, the machine must switch at least two times. If this does not happen, then the box has problems.
- Sharp acceleration. Pay attention to the dynamics of acceleration. If the engine speed is high, but the car is slowly picking up speed, then the box is slipping. A car with a working machine accelerates quickly and without jerks.
- Sharp braking. After acceleration, make a sharp deceleration. If the box is working, then the speeds will quickly drop from fourth to first. In this case, jerks and delays should not be felt.
- Enabling OverDrive mode. Accelerate up to 70 km/h. At this speed, the automatic transmission will shift into fourth gear. Press the OverDrive button, the machine should go into a low gear mode, i.e., slow down the speed one step lower. If this does not happen, then the box again has problems.
Now you know how to check the automatic transmission yourself before buying a car. The above methods will help determine the general condition of the box, save a decent amount in the future. The main thing is not to be lazy to use them and then you will find the car that will not let you down.

Modern cars have a transmission unit in their structure. If it is automatic, then this node is considered difficult. With a manual gearbox, everything is much simpler: the clutch does not work, disassembled, replaced. The automatic transmission can be repaired and serviced by specially trained people. But all drivers of cars with an automatic transmission need to know the symptoms of certain problems with the box, to be able, so to speak, to diagnose with their own hands.
When and how to diagnose automatic transmission
The benefit of the initial detection of problems at the first sign of incorrect operation of the automatic transmission is enormous. If you immediately identify the cause of incorrect operation, you can avoid costly repairs and not stand idle time during repairs.
It is also very important to diagnose the automatic transmission when buying a used car. Used cars with automatic transmission must be carefully checked, because as it happens, well, the box breaks and that's it, no matter how much you repair.
Of course, if you decide to take a used car, then you need to check all the nodes and pay attention to small details, such as, for example:
- Is there a hitch. There is, yeah, it means I went under load. And an automatic transmission, whether it be a robot or a variator, can suffer greatly if it is operated under load, that is, with a loaded trailer.
- What mileage. If about a hundred thousand have never changed the oil filter in the automatic transmission and the oil itself, then there is a possibility that the parts in the assembly are operating in wear mode.
If the oil was changed, there is no towbar, then you still need to do an automatic transmission diagnostic.
The initial check of the automatic transmission includes the well-known procedures:
- Check the oil level in the box.
- Check how clean the oil is: clear and not curtailed or thickened, cloudy.
- Check control cable adjustment.
- Check .
- Check how the box shifts while driving.
Now in more detail how to do the above steps.
To check the transmission fluid, then the oil, you need to learn how to check the level and its quality. The level is usually checked on the dipstick, which has special marks. However, there are boxes without a dipstick.
American automatic transmissions have a dipstick to check the oil level, while European ones usually do not. How to check the oil level in an automatic transmission if there is no dipstick? The answer is simple: if there is no dipstick, oil was poured from somewhere, then there is a cork. Oil is poured into such boxes to the level of the hole. So you need to unscrew the plug, the level of this hole will be the mark of the correct filling of fresh gear oil for automatic transmission. 
Regardless of whether there is a dipstick or not, the oil level is checked for the warmed state of the oil in the box. To heat the oil in the box to operating temperature, which is about 90 degrees, you need to drive 13 kilometers. After that, we put the car in a level position. If there is a dipstick, then everything is simple: they pulled out the dipstick, wiped it with a clean napkin, put it in again, stuck it out again and looked at how much the dipstick goes into the oil. Usually there are labels HOT (hot) - the upper level and there is a lower mark COLD (cold - cold) when the oil level should be cold. If the oil level does not exceed the upper mark and not lower than the lower mark, then the automatic transmission has a normal amount of oil.
If there is no dipstick, then you will have to drive into the pit or overpass, unscrew the plug and check the level with a clean wire or stick. As we said, the level in such automatic transmissions should be up to the very hole.
If metal shavings are visible when checking the oil, this means that the parts working in pairs touch each other, there is wear. In this case, a deeper check in a specialized car service is required.
And how to check the oil level if the automatic transmission does not have a dipstick and there is no oil filler plug?
Yes, yes, there are such boxes, who does not know. This is a box with code 722.6 from Mercedes, a five-speed automatic. 
The answer is also simple: you don’t need to check the level in such a box. The fact is that German engineers came up with the idea of separating the cavity with oil from the working pan. A bypass valve is mounted between them, which keeps the optimum desired level.
Checking the automatic transmission adjustment cable
Here again, the mileage affects the condition of the cable. The cable can gradually lengthen by microns or millimeters, like a timing chain.
In what cases it is necessary to adjust the automatic transmission cable?
If while driving you notice that the car shifts too late or too early, then you need to adjust the cable. If you operate the automatic transmission for a long time with an unadjusted cable, the automatic transmission wears out quickly.
Automatic transmission check - parking brake (stall test)
Testing will show how the torque converter (GDT) of the box works. This diagnostic step should only be carried out by an experienced automatic transmission specialist, otherwise, on the contrary, parts can be broken.
The principle of the Stall Test (became a test) is as follows:
- drive a few kilometers to warm up the transmission oil in the automatic transmission;
- stop the car so that there is a lot of free space in front of it and behind it in case the brakes are weak;
- turn on the handbrake;
- sit behind the wheel, press the brake pedal to the stop with your left foot;
- move the box to position "D" (drive - movement);
- with your right foot, sharply press the gas pedal all the way down and hold it for no more than five seconds (the less, the better).
Immediately after this procedure, you cannot repeat it, you must wait ten or fifteen minutes for the oil in the automatic transmission to cool.
This test will show how the friction discs work and how the torque converter works in general. After checking, the box handle must be moved to the N (neutral) position and let the engine run for several minutes so that the oil in the automatic transmission cools down.
Vehicle behavior during parking brake diagnostics:
- The brakes are holding, squeaking, but the car is barely crawling. Indicates that the brake system is faulty.
- The effect of engine tripping, that is, the car shakes. This means there is a malfunction in the ignition system, which means that if you do not correct it, the car's engine will work with reduced power. Solution: check spark plugs, high voltage spark plug wires, spark plug tips.
- A serviceable automatic transmission during diagnostics by a parking test should contribute to a set engine speed in one second of about 2800 rpm for gasoline internal combustion engines, for diesel engines with a serviceable automatic transmission, the speed per second will be 2000 rpm.
These are indicative figures. Such diagnostics should be carried out by a specialist who knows what parameters and for how long the unit should show when checking the stall test.
How to check automatic transmission in motion
In a normally working automatic transmission, some jerks are allowed when switching to “cold”. When warm, there should be no shocks.
During acceleration, upshifting, as well as when decelerating, downshifting should be smooth, without jerking and slipping of the automatic transmission.
There is also a simple diagnostic that every driver can do. The point is to stop the vehicle on a hill and take your foot off the brake pedal. If the car went back, then there are problems in the automatic transmission.
If slippage, jerks, shocks, noises were noticed during the trip, then the cause may be a breakdown of the freewheel, wear of the clutches, etc.
If the diagnostics showed a malfunction in the automatic transmission system of a used car that you want to buy, then it is better to refuse this option, because the automatic transmission is a complex device that should work like an accurate clock. Bringing her condition close to the factory — it's not easy.
Service center specialists immediately distinguish in which part there are breakdowns: electrical, hydraulic or mechanical. ATF transmission fluid is even checked for smell, color and what is its pressure in the system.
It is advisable to choose a used car, even with an automatic gearbox, even with mechanics, with a knowledgeable specialist. For example, a friend went to the car market to choose, take an engine specialist with him, who immediately said that the compression was not what was needed - they measured it, yes, it turned out that the motor really had a lot of wear.

What not to do with automatic transmission.
Does an oil change ruin an automatic transmission?
Instruction
An automatic transmission is a very complex device, consisting of numerous parts and seals. Wear of just one element leads to incorrect operation of the entire unit. Also, the automatic transmission is sensitive to overheating. Half an hour of slipping in the deep is enough to burn the box. The oil in an automatic transmission should be changed more often than in a mechanical one, and driving on the "old" oil is more deplorable. The wrong choice of oil poured into the box can ruin it on the very first day of operation. In addition, machines do not tolerate repairs well and do not last long after it. Therefore, practical Americans and Europeans do not repair the box, but change the assembly.
It should also be remembered that the repair of an automatic transmission is very difficult and very expensive.
Before checking the automatic transmission, it is useful to find out the cars. This can save time and money. If the car was used at a rental or was restored after a serious accident, the automatic transmission will not last long. The same can be said about the already repaired box. All repair automatic transmissions have problems. And not all workshops can professionally repair automatic transmissions. The presence may indicate increased wear on the machine caused by the transport of a trailer.
Checking the automatic box.
First, you should check the oil level in the box and its condition. In this case, the engine must be idling, the selector of the machine should be in the “parking” position. The transmission dipstick is removed, wiped with a clean cloth and inserted back. Now pull out the dipstick again. To assess the condition of the oil, the dipstick is wiped with white paper. The paper should leave a clean and transparent mark without metal or foreign particles. New oil is red. Not new may be brownish, but not black. And it doesn't have a burnt smell.
Please note that modern automatic transmissions do not have an oil dipstick. Checking the level and condition of the oil is possible only in a specialized technical center.
Testing automatic transmission on the go.
The delay between the moments of selecting the position of the selector "D" or "R" and before turning on these positions of the selector is a sign of a defect. First, you should warm up the car and the box in the "P" (parking) position until the speed drops to 600-800. Holding the car in place with the brake pedal, the selector switches to "D" (driving). The machine should immediately select this mode and start trying to drag the machine forward. Everything should happen smoothly, without pushes and knocks. Further, when switching to "N" (neutral), the box should turn off. Now, when you turn on "R" (reverse), the automatic transmission should also turn on instantly, without clicks and knocks. The car should try to crawl back.
While holding the brake pedal, you should check the box, switching from "D" to "R" and vice versa. There should be no jolts or knocks. Delay more than 1 sec. when you turn on any mode, it indicates wear or damage to the box.
To further check the box on the go, it is necessary to develop a speed of up to 50-60 km / h. Gears should shift at least two times, smoothly, without shocks and delays. The fact of a gear shift is determined by a slight change in the noise of the motor and a drop in its speed. With excessive wear of the automatic transmission, a push, delay or shock is felt at the moment of shifting.
At a speed of 40-50 km / h, you should drown the accelerator pedal to the stop. A properly working machine will shift to a lower gear, engine speed will increase.
If there is an overdrive mode (button to the left of the automatic transmission selector on Japanese and American cars), it is also checked. To do this, at a speed of 60-70 km / h, the ON mode is turned on by pressing the overdrive button. The transmission should shift up one. When overdrive is turned off, the gear shifts one down.
The problem of slipping gears is as follows: when you press the gas pedal, the speed increases, but the speed does not increase.
An automatic transmission is a fairly reliable thing, but compared to the rest of the car, it still remains its most vulnerable part.
Using modern technology, we often have no idea how it works. But if you do not diagnose in time, the picture will be as follows. When one of the parts is worn the operation of the mechanism will first become fuzzy, and then the device will completely fail.
What is an automatic box
Automatic transmission is a complex structure consisting of a large number of precision pistons, the condition of which determines the operation of the transmission.
Important! The condition of the automatic transmission is highly dependent on the temperature, type and quality of the oil in the transmission. For example, a box is easy to burn, skidding in the snow for 20-30 minutes.
Compared to a manual transmission, many of the components of an automatic transmission wear out quickly naturally. For example, in the oil pan of any box there is a magnet on which metal powder settles. After the same run on a mechanical box, it will be clean, and on an automatic, it will be covered with a thick layer of metal.
It is possible to repair an automatic transmission, but it contains a large number of precise parts. The ingress of dust particles, specks or an error during repair - all this can cause another breakdown. There is a known case when, on the day of buying a new Audi, an automatic transmission burned out due to slipping in the snow. The repair cost was $2000, and a year later it had to be repaired again.
In order to avoid such situations, when buying used cars, special attention should be paid to the condition of the automatic transmission.
How to check
In order to test the automatic transmission of a used car, it is advisable to contact a professional.
First, you need to check the history of the car. You should not buy it in the following cases:
- if before the sale it was used in a car rental,
- if there was a serious accident and subsequent repairs.
In any case, you need to find out if the gearbox has been repaired. If yes - again, it is better not to buy such a car. The reason for this is not the fact of repair itself (some gearboxes work even better after repair), but the fact that not every workshop can repair automatic transmissions with high quality. And the quality of the repair can not be checked.
Important! Another point to consider: if a trailer was used with the car, this is also a reason to refuse the purchase. Such operation of the automatic transmission leads to its additional wear.
Checking the condition of the automatic transmission begins with an assessment of the quantity and quality of the oil in the box. There is nothing complicated in such a check, and you can do it yourself. The automatic transmission is set to the “Park” position, the engine is at idle. Take out the transmission dipstick, wipe it with a clean cloth, put it back in and take it out again. The probe is wiped with white paper. If the layer is transparent, without metal particles and flakes, everything is in order. The oil should be red or brownish in color, without a burning smell. If the oil is black in color, has such a smell or impurities of particles, then it is better to refuse to buy a car.
However, there are automatic transmissions without a dipstick, and you can only check the quality of the oil in such a box in a technical center. In such cases, checking the operation of the gearbox can be carried out using a test drive.
Test run
Since the car has not yet been bought, you need to be careful and careful. Before starting the test, they adjust the rear-view mirrors, the seat and check the operation of the brakes on any car.
After selecting the transmission position "Parking", you need to slightly warm up the car. When the speed drops to 650-850 per minute, keeping your foot on the brake pedal, switch to the “Drive” mode. The inclusion is felt physically, the car seems to “move” forward.
Switch to ”Neutral”, the gearbox is switched off. Then switch to “Reverse” by again keeping the brake pedal depressed. When you turn on the automatic transmission in this mode, there should be a feeling of moving backwards. The next step is switching from R to D mode and vice versa. 
With all these checks, the box should respond almost instantly, without jerks, shocks and knocks. If there is a delay of more than one second between the mode selection and its activation itself, the transmission is defective and must be repaired or replaced. You shouldn't buy this car.
If at this stage the gearbox has shown itself to be good, the next step in the test is the race. The automatic transmission lever is switched to the “Drive” position, the foot is removed from the brake pedal. The car accelerates to approximately 50-60 km / h. The speed in the process should switch 2 times (to the second and third gears), while there should also be no delays and shocks. When shifting gears, there is a slight change in engine noise and a drop in speed.
When the speed reaches 40-50 km / h, you can press the gas all the way. If the box is working, then the gear will not go down, but the engine speed will increase. If a delay is noticeable when switching, a push (or even a blow) is felt, then the automatic transmission is very worn out. For Japanese and American cars, there is an Overdrive button to the left of the gear lever. During the test drive, it is also subject to verification. Having accelerated to a speed of 60-70 km / h, by pressing the button they switch it to ON mode. A serviceable automatic transmission at the same time switches one gear up. When switching to OFF mode - downshift.
If during the test “Overdrive” starts flashing (“check engine” mode), you should consult a specialist regarding the serviceability of the automatic transmission.
Another manifestation of a worn box is when, when you press the gas pedal, the speed increases, but the gear does not change, the box “slips”.
If any of these box defects are present, it is worth looking for another car.
The test run must be carried out meticulously in order to avoid problems in the future. Transmission repair is quite expensive, and it is more expedient to spend time testing an automatic transmission than to pay for its repair in the future.
It happens that jolts and knocks when switching automatic transmission appear when the engine is well warmed up, or vice versa, they disappear. Even if the seller says that this is normal for such a car model, it is better to refuse the purchase.
A fully serviceable box works without noise and knocking, does not slip and does not pull the car. These symptoms do not appear when shifting in any gear and at any degree of engine warm-up.
Now you know how you can check the automatic transmission for serviceability, and we hope that you will not buy a car with a faulty automatic transmission. Good luck on the road, friends!
Pay attention to the smell of oil in the box, there should not be any foreign smells, especially the smell of burning. It is also recommended for color, drop it on a piece of paper. The color of the oil should be reddish, if the oil has been changed for a long time, it may acquire a brownish tint, but in no case black. The dark color of the oil, the presence of any particles in the oil, or the presence of an extraneous odor are those signs in the presence of which it is better to immediately refuse to buy. Metal particles or even flakes in the box are absolutely unacceptable. The automatic transmission has a large number of precise elements that are easily damaged by such particles.
Some cars are not equipped with the probe described above, then it will be possible to check the level and condition of the fluid in the box only with the help of computer diagnostics.
So, if the car passed the preliminary selection, we go directly to testing the box in action, that is, in motion. Do not forget about accuracy and caution - the car is not yours yet. There are several positions of the lever: neutral, praking, drive and reverse, that is, reverse, they are indicated respectively by the letters N, P, D, R.
Squeezing out the brake pedal, try several times to smoothly switch the box to each of these positions. Switching should occur instantly and with a characteristic push, in the neutral position of the automatic transmission lever, the box is turned off. If the reaction of the box is delayed by at least one second, this indicates the inaccuracy of the box. And any inaccuracy subsequently turns into a breakdown and costly repairs.
By ignoring the automatic transmission diagnostics, you can “get” for its repair
The next stage of verification is the check-in itself. Before leaving, the engine needs to be warmed up a little, when the speed has dropped to 800 per minute, you can go. With the brake pedal pressed, move the lever to the Drive position and gradually accelerate the car. Already when accelerating to 60 km / h, you should feel the gear change twice, first to second, and then to third gear. Here, during the operation of the box, there should also be no extraneous sounds or strong shocks, as well as a delay in the reaction of the box to commands.
If the machine is equipped with an overdrive button, this should also be checked. This check is made at a speed of 60-70 km/h. When this mode is turned on, a working box switches to a higher gear, and when turned off, to a lower gear. When you turn on the Overdrive mode, the ”check engine” mode starts flashing - the box may be faulty.
Now, knowing how to check the automatic transmission, you will be careful when. No matter how the seller assures you that the noise, for example, disappears when the car warms up, or vice versa, it appears only when it is hot, you should not fall for the trick. should not slip when switching, that is, there should not be a phenomenon when, when you press the gas pedal, the speed increases, and the switching is delayed. There should be no noise or knocking, jerks or jerks in the box, it should not jerk the car, but work smoothly and silently.
