Subaru Legacy Automatic vs Manual Transmission

Automatic and manual transmission will consistently require definite fluids. Automatic transmission fluids are typically thinner and are consistently red or green in color. Manual transmission fluid or gear oil is thicker due to additives and diverse compounds important to lubricate the gearbox and diverse elements. Manual transmissions have a higher friction environment due to the way gears are changed, thus the lubricant is definite.

Not only are the fluids diverse between manual and automatic transmissions but the level of heat the fluids experience is very diverse. Automatic transmissions generate a lot more heat and thus the fluid in your transmission must be changed more frequently. If you don't change your Subaru Legacy transmission fluid, your transmission will have broken metal shavings and further corrosive material spread throughout the main components of your Subaru Legacy. You should frequently check the fluid levels between your fluid and transmission flush service intervals. In several cases, manual transmissions don't come equipped with a dipstick to check your fluid levels, so it can be extremely troublesome to do. Call or visit Mike Shaw Subaru for more information if your transmission doesn't contain a dipstick.
