When the fluid is old, the transmission can produce unpleasant noises, and a worn-out torque converter can lead to problems. The transmission is a critical component of the vehicle, and issues are bound to occur eventually. Delayed shifts can result in acceleration problems, slipping, shuddering, hard shifts, jerking, and gears getting stuck. It's crucial to address any transmission fluid leaks promptly.
