Transmission Service FAQ
1. How much does transmission service cost in White Rock?
Costs vary based on fluid type, filters, and vehicle make, but most transmission services range from $250–$600, while repairs or rebuilds vary depending on diagnosis. We provide transparent quotes before any work begins.
2. How do I know if my transmission needs repair or just a fluid service?
A diagnostic test will determine this. Slipping, delayed shifting, or shuddering can mean anything from low fluid to internal wear. We perform a full evaluation first so you only pay for what’s needed.
3. Do you service CVT transmissions?
Yes — many shops avoid CVTs, but our certified technicians use OEM-approved fluids and procedures to ensure longevity and performance.
4. Can you repair transmissions for luxury or European vehicles?
Absolutely. We specialize in BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Lexus, Jaguar, and Land Rover as well as every mainstream brand.
5. How often should transmission fluid be changed?
Typically every 50,000–100,000 km, depending on driving style and manufacturer recommendations. CVTs and DSG/DCT units often require more frequent service.
How often should I have a transmission fluid and filter service?
The good news is you don’t have to change transmission fluid as often as motor oil.
It’s generally recommended you get your transmission fluid exchanged every 40,000 to 60,000 kms or every two-to-three years – whichever comes first.
What is a manual transmission service?
Whether you have front- or rear-wheel drive, transmissions are required to transmit the necessary power and torque from your engine to your vehicle’s drive wheels.
Transmissions allow an engine to operate at a few speeds or gears, while your vehicle can travel at a large range of speeds.
