Sometimes, poor transmission performance is an indication of other problems with your car or truck. A complete diagnostic check will reveal any underlying issues that may exist so they can be addressed.
Thanks to the ever-so-growing world of aftermarket automotive technology and accessories, there are many modifications that can be made to improve the towing performance of your automatic transmission.
When the transmission fluid in an automatic transmission begins to oxidize, it causes a problem known as “shear.” The transmission clutches begin to slip, which creates more friction and allows damaging heat to build up.
All modern automatic transmissions should shift smoothly and quietly under light acceleration. When you accelerate heavily you should experience firmer shifts at the higher speeds.
Take the time to read through your car’s owner’s manual and make note of any milestone maintenance for the transmission. While you do not need to have the worked performed at the exact mileage, it should happen soon after.
Transmission fluid keeps your gears moving smoothly, so you want to make sure the fluid stays there. That's why transmissions have various gasket seals, but like all seals, they can fail. Fortunately, a transmission expert can fix any leaks or broken seals.
If your car's transmission is making a buzzing or whining noise, it may be that you have low fluid levels, or it could be something more serious. We can help to troubleshoot the problem to ensure that the repair is done correctly the first time.
At times you may notice that while driving or changing gears, your car tends to shake, sometimes quite violently. This is an indication that there may be some issues with your transmission or clutch and it may need repairs.
In general, a manual transmission has fewer parts, resulting in fewer problems, but it has a problem pretty much unique to manuals: the dragging clutch. This is when the clutch disc stays stuck to the flywheel instead of disengaging when you release the pedal.
