CVT transmission oil – especially for continuously variable transmissions
CVT transmission oil is a special lubricant for continuously variable transmissions (CVT). It ensures smooth power transmission, protects against wear and ensures optimum cooling. As a CVT transmission does not use conventional gear wheels, but instead relies on belts or push link chains, it requires a high-performance transmission oil with special friction modifiers.
Why is CVT transmission oil important?
CVT transmissions work with variable ratios, which means that the oil must not only lubricate, but also ensure the correct friction between the components. BASINOL CVT oils offer:
– Optimized friction properties for smooth gear changes
– Excellent protection against material wear
– High thermal stability to prevent overheating
Incorrect or old CVT oil can lead to jerking, loss of power and transmission damage.
Can I fill normal ATF oil into a CVT transmission?
No. CVT transmissions require specially formulated CVT oil as it has different frictional properties. ATF oil can damage the transmission.
How often should CVT transmission oil be changed?
Depending on the manufacturer, the recommended change interval is between 60,000 and 100,000 km. An earlier change may be advisable for intensive use.
What advantages do BASINOL CVT transmission oils offer?
✔ Longer transmission service life
✔ Improved shifting performance & smooth running
✔ Maximum protection against abrasion and wear
