Come to a complete stop before shifting from first to reverse. Changing from first to reverse while in motion can strip the gears and weaken the transmission.
Some vehicles are actually built with a smaller, secondary radiator (oil cooler) for the transmission. This helps keep your transmission from overheating, but like your main radiator can run into issues. Fortunately, a transmission expert can fix any problems you have.
Periodic inspection of the transmission fluid help prevent damage to the transmission. The fluid should be a bright red; if is dull or any other color besides this, it is time to have it changed.
Although they don't need to be changed as frequently as your car’s fuel, oil, or air filters, transmissions do have filters that remove gunk, dirt, and contaminates from the transmission oil. When the filter is clogged or dirty, performance is compromised.
The modern transmission was introduced by Frenchmen Louis-Rene Panhard and Emile Levassor in 1894. Unfortunately, before they could present this advancement to the press, the engine in their demo vehicle died.
When a transmission is shifting roughly, erratically, or it has delays or lags in shifting, and the transmission fluid level is at the proper level, a complete check is needed to identify the problem.
If you are wanting a complete service for your transmission it’ll include removing the pan and inspecting the old oil looking for signs of any issues it has or even looking for things that may happen in the near future.
We suggest you call us for an appointment if your car struggles to shift smoothly through the gears after an automatic transmission fluid change. It could be a sign of an improperly installed or cracked transmission fluid filter.
You think gas prices are ridiculous over here, you should hear about other countries. In what sounds like a miraculous and merciful move, drivers in Turkmenistan are actually entitled to 120 liters of absolute free petrol a month, what a dream.
