Allison Transmission, Indianapolis, introduced new prognostic features for MY09 are now available on Allison 1000/2000/3000/4000 series models.
Calibrated to particular operating requirements of vehicles, prognostic features monitor various operating parameters to determine and alert when a specific maintenance function is required. Use of Allison-approved TES 295 transmission fluid is required.

New features include:

• Oil Life Monitor: pased on the vehicle's duty cycle, determines fluid life and alerts when a fluid change is required. It helps gives maximum oil life while providing the greatest protection for the transmission.

• Filter Life Monitor: provides an alert when the transmission's fluid filter(s) need to be replaced. This feature may help extend filter change intervals and provide maximum protection for the transmission.

• Transmission Health Monitor: determines and alerts when clutch maintenance is required.

When service is due for Allison 3000/4000 Series models, a wrench icon on the shift selector's digital display alerts the operator. Similar to checking oil level and diagnostics, the status of all three prognostic features can be checked by toggling through the shift selector's display. 1000/2000 Series models require a separate transmission service light to alert the operator.
