At Connect Truck Center, we understand the importance of regular oil and fluid services to keep your heavy-duty fleet trucks running smoothly. Many critical components of your truck require fluids to function correctly, and over time, those fluids become contaminated, degrade, and break down. This can lead to component failure, costly repairs, and even safety issues on the road.
Components That Require Lubrication
Some of the semi-truck components that require fluid changes include the engine, transmission, steering, coolant system, transfer case, and your differentials. Your engine oil is responsible for lubricating and cooling the engine's moving parts, while the transmission fluid is responsible for lubricating the gears and clutch systems. Coolant is responsible for regulating engine temperature, whereas transfer case gear oil and differential gear oil lubricate moving gears.
The Impact of Lubricant Contamination
Contamination can impact the lubrication ability of these fluids, making them less effective at their job. For example, engine oil can become contaminated with metal shavings or dirt, reducing its ability to lubricate the engine properly.
The Importance of Fluid Changes
Over time, lubricants break down and lose their effectiveness, resulting in potential component failure. Regular oil and fluid services are critical to keeping your trucks running smoothly and avoiding costly repairs down the line.
