Transmission Maintenance & Repairs

The transmission fluid needs to be inspected regularly and occasionally changed to catch a problem before causing more damage. If, for example, the fluid is low because of a leak, it's a lot easier to find and fix the leak than to wait on the improperly lubricated internal gears to require replacement. A complete rebuild or replacement is needed because eventually, the moving parts will wear down. Because modern vehicles reach much higher mileages than ever before, the transmission is likely to wear out while the car still has enough life left to be worth the cost of replacing the transmission.

Signs & Symptoms of a Failing Transmissions

Ideally, the driver should recognize sure signs indicative of a failing transmission before it completely stops working. Certain gears may seem to slip or give the driver a sense of coasting as the transmission is shifting. Alternately, the vehicle might reach a high RPM before shifting up to the next gear, or rev up when shifting. Such symptoms are signs the gears are wearing down and unable to shift smoothly. At such time, it's best to start planning on having the transmission serviced as soon as possible as the problem will only get worse, potentially causing more damage and further repairs to be needed.
