Servicing your automatic transmission, according to your manufacturer’s recommended schedule, is the best way to help maintain proper shifting and prolong the life of your transmission. Most transmission failures are related to overheating and fluid contamination. New transmission fluid cools properly, helping to maintain smooth shifting, and protects against excessive wear. Transmission fluid protects the transmission by capturing debris and deposits that occur during normal driving.

Typically we recommend flushing the transmission. This service is performed with the engine running so virtually all of the transmission fluid is replaced.

The drain and fill is the way to service manual transmissions, Continuous Velocity Transmissions (CVT), or higher mileage transmission. The drain plug is removed, and fluid is replaced. We catch the removed fluid in a measuring container to ensure accurate refilling. This service is not available for all automatic transmissions because some do not have drain plugs.
