Our Transmission Services Include

We use professional-grade tools to detect error codes, sensor issues, or slipping concerns quickly and accurately.
Clean fluid is essential for proper shifting. We replace old or burnt fluid to prevent wear and restore performance.
If you’re feeling a soft or sticky clutch, we’ll inspect your clutch plate, flywheel, and master cylinder for wear or failure.
Faulty transmission solenoids or speed sensors can cause erratic shifts. We test and replace only what’s needed.
Leaking transmission fluid? We’ll reseal gaskets and fix drips to protect your transmission from damage.

We don’t just replace parts. We diagnose the real problem and only recommend what your vehicle actually needs.

Signs You May Need Transmission Repair

Don’t wait until your transmission fails, look out for these warning signs:

✓

Delayed or rough gear changes
If your vehicle hesitates or jerks during shifting, it could indicate worn transmission components or low fluid levels

✓

Whining, clunking, or grinding sounds while driving
Unusual noises from beneath the vehicle often signal internal wear or damage inside the transmission

✓

Transmission fluid that smells burnt or appears dark
Healthy fluid should be bright red and clean. A burnt smell or dirty appearance usually means it’s time for service

✓

Check engine light paired with shifting problems
When your dashboard light appears alongside hard shifts or slipping gears, it’s time for a diagnostic check

Addressing transmission issues early can prevent costly rebuilds down the road.
