Transmission Services and Repairs

Your transmission’s the unsung hero under the hood—shifting gears, keeping things smooth, and taking on every stop, go, and long haul. But it can’t do it alone. Transmission fluid keeps it cool and running right, and when that fluid breaks down, trouble isn’t far behind. A quick service now keeps you cruising later—no clunks, no costly repairs.

How We Service Your Transmission

We check your transmission type and service requirements based on your owner’s manual and driving habits.

We remove the old fluid, either through a drain plug or fluid exchange system, depending on your vehicle.

If your transmission uses a filter, we’ll swap it out to keep the new fluid clean and the system running efficiently.

The Fundamentals of Transmission Care

Simple Tips to Help You Stay Ahead of Transmission Trouble

Manufacturer recommendations range from 30,000 to 150,000 miles, but if you tow heavy loads or drive in harsh conditions, you may need service sooner. When in doubt, we have you covered.

Trouble switching gears? Slipping, slow acceleration, or burning smells could mean your transmission fluid is worn out. A red puddle under your vehicle or a dashboard warning light is your cue to get checked ASAP.

Automatic transmissions run hot, which breaks down fluid faster. Regular service helps your transmission stay cool, responsive, and protected.

People often confuse these services. The differential uses separate fluid—so both systems need attention. We’ll help you sort it out.
