Does Your Transmission Need To Be Repaired?

The transmission is a critical part of your vehicle that should be taken care of. By utilizing the power of the engine and transferring it to the wheels, your transmission moves you along the road. Regular maintenance by top mechanics keeps your engine functioning superbly, so you can drive the Apache Trail or go up to Dobbins Lookout.

It’s paramount to recognize the signals if your transmission starts to stutter, before a full transmission rebuild is necessary. We want you to know what to look out for before it becomes an emergency. 

A Burning or Smoky Scent 

A burning scent wafting from your engine is often an early warning sign of possible transmission problems. When an aged or defective transmission overheats, a smoky smell will assail you. If your transmission is burning even a small amount it can compromise the lubrication of other vital gears. Don’t hesitate to call us immediately if you’ve been driving over extended periods and then suddenly smell something “off” like this in the cabin of your car. 

Gear Slippage

Transmission slipping is a common complaint for foreign and domestic vehicles. This is when your car unexpectedly shifts gears without any input from you; it can lead to reduced acceleration, higher RPMs, and dismay as the driver temporarily loses control of the car’s speed. Many drivers of European luxury cars report delayed or harsh shifting, jerky shifting issues. This can be caused by a malfunctioning valve body or damaged solenoids, among other things. 

Transmission Fluid Under Your Car

Transmission fluid serves as a vital lubricant for the gears of your transmission. It’s normally contained inside a sealed system, but leaks can occur over time due to wear and tear, damage, or faulty seals. Thankfully, a transmission fluid leak is easy to spot. If you see a bright red or dark red-brown fluid puddle under your car, you most likely have a transmission fluid leak. This fluid also has a distinct, dulce aroma. We offer regular maintenance to prevent leaks from occurring. 

Whines, Grinding, or Unsettling Sounds

Our professional mechanics know that strange sounds coming from a car are usually the very first symptom of a looming problem. When the soothing, familiar hum of your car engine is interrupted by a discordant rattle or a jarring rasp you can call us right away. Those noises usually signal the need for transmission repair.

Prompt Transmission Maintenance

The reality is that almost 99% of transmission issues can be prevented with regular maintenance. That’s why Gary’s Automotive Repair offers a full service transmission maintenance schedule for all your vehicles. We don’t want you to suffer any lag in performance, strange noises, leaks, or gear slippage. 

When you come in consistently for transmission maintenance it prevents costly repairs. 

We check your transmission fluid level or replace it on a schedule according to manufacturer’s recommendations. We also replace the transmission filter, check for leaks, and go over every inch of your engine thoroughly to prevent mishaps.
