Keep your car running smoothly by addressing transmission issues early.
How the Transmission Affects Your Car
The transmission is key to transferring power from the engine to the wheels, allowing for smooth acceleration and proper vehicle performance. Whether you drive a manual or automatic, a healthy transmission is critical to your car’s functionality.
Signs of Transmission Trouble
Being aware of the early symptoms of transmission failure can prevent expensive repairs in the future. Here are some common signs to watch out for:
- Slipping Gears: When your car unexpectedly changes gears or has trouble staying in gear, this is a sign of a problem.
- Rough Shifting: A rough or delayed gear shift could be a sign of a transmission problem.
- Weird Sounds: Whining, clunking, or humming sounds while driving often point to transmission problems.
- Leaking Fluid: If you notice red or brown transmission fluid under your car, it’s important to get it inspected quickly.
- Transmission Warning Light: If the transmission warning light appears, it’s time to have your car checked.
Why Early Diagnosis and Repair Matters
If transmission issues are ignored, they can lead to total failure, which is much more costly to fix. Early diagnosis and repair not only extend your car's life but also save you money over time.
What Transmission Repair Services Include
The specifics of transmission repair depend on the issue, but here’s what you can expect:
- Repairing or replacing worn-out parts like clutches and bands
- Refilling and flushing the transmission fluid
- Transmission adjustments for enhanced driving performance
