Depending on the mileage of your vehicle, you will need to either flush or simply drain your automatic transmission fluid. If you have 0 to 50k miles, plan on having your system flushed. For those with 100k to 200k miles, simply drain and fill as this is much more gentle than flushing the system.

If you notice oil stains on your driveway under your car, it is either engine oil or transmission fluid. Engine oil is brown or blackish; transmission fluid is red. If you cannot tell the color, place a piece of clean cardboard under the car. If the spots are red, bring your car in for a diagnostic transmission check.

The transmission in automobiles is a system of parts usually contained within a housing, connecting the engine to the wheels. Suitable torque, or turning force, is generated by the engine only within a narrow range of engine speeds, i.e., rates at which the crankshaft is turning.
