Transmission Service FAQ
1. How often should I service my transmission?
Most vehicles require transmission service every 50,000–90,000 km, but European and CVT systems may require more frequent inspections. Always follow manufacturer recommendations.
2. What are the signs my transmission needs repair?
Slipping, delayed shifting, grinding, leaks, burning smell, or dashboard codes are strong indicators. Early diagnosis reduces major repair costs.
3. Do you service all makes and models?
Yes—domestic, import, European, luxury, hybrid, AWD, 4×4, and CVT transmissions. We use OEM or OEM-approved fluids for every vehicle.
4. How much does transmission service cost?
Fluid services typically start at a few hundred dollars depending on vehicle type and fluid capacity. Repairs vary by severity. We always provide upfront pricing.
5. Can I drive with a slipping or failing transmission?
It’s not recommended. Driving can cause major internal damage and increase repair costs. Book an appointment immediately.
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.
