Transmission Repair
Sometimes, despite best efforts at preventative maintenance, transmissions can fail or become damaged.
Common signs of a damaged transmission:
- Unusual Noises: Whining, clunking, or grinding sounds while the vehicle is in gear can indicate transmission issues.
- Slipping Gears: RPM spikes, delayed or rough shifting, or difficulty staying in gear can suggest transmission problems.
- Fluid Leaks: Red or brown puddles under the car may indicate a transmission fluid leak, which is essential for proper functioning.
- Warning Lights: The "Check Engine" light or specific transmission-related warning lights may illuminate on the dashboard.
- Burning Smell: A burnt odor, especially accompanied by smoke, may signal an overheating transmission.
- Poor Acceleration: Difficulty in accelerating or a lack of power can be a sign of transmission trouble.
- Sluggish Response: A delay between pressing the accelerator and the vehicle responding could indicate transmission issues.
- Fluid Contamination: Check the transmission fluid for unusual color or a burnt smell; healthy fluid is typically red or pink.
- Difficulty Engaging Gears: Problems getting the vehicle into gear, whether it's a manual or automatic transmission.
