What You Need to Know About Transmission Repair

posted on

How Can I Tell if I Need Transmission Repair?

 

It is usually easy to tell if you have severe transmission issues because your car won’t move! But there are several signs that are not so obvious.

  • - Slipping is when you feel your vehicle shift with no apparent reason to another gear. This is often accompanied by a whining sound or other noises from the engine.
  • - Delays are another sign of transmission issues. If you shift your vehicle into gear and nothing happens or it takes a moment, you might need transmission service.
  • - Leaks can also lead to transmission issues. Keep an eye out for magenta colored liquid.
  • - Check engine lights let you know about a lot of issues with your vehicle. Your transmission is no different if you notice your check light illuminated, take your car to the shop for an evaluation.

 

What Should I Expect From my Transmission Repair?

In other words, how much is this going to cost? Well, there is never a simple answer. Transmission repair varies depending on several factors.

Older Car v. Newer Car

  • - Depending on the age of your vehicle parts could be hard to come by, corrosion and rust can make the job more difficult, or parts could be more expensive because of make and model.

Manual or Automatic?

  • - In general, Manual transmissions will be cheaper to replace.

How Bad is the damage?

  • - Having regular maintenance will always help prevent severe damage to your transmission. But severity is still a factor in repair costs. Our skilled technicians can evaluate your vehicle to see if fluids and filters will do the job or if replacement or repair is necessary.
