Vehicle Transmission Services
Your vehicle transmission needs are just like all the other components requiring routine maintenance. Transmission services are equally important as changing your oil. Luckily for you, you don’t have to do it nearly as often. The key is servicing at the proper intervals and not servicing too late.
We also offer automotive service and repair. With us, you can get premium parts at a reasonable price.
When Should I Service My Car Transmission?
You need to service it at regular intervals according to your manufacturer’s guidelines.
Manual transmission – most automakers agree that fluid needs to be changed every 30,000 to 60,000 miles. If the vehicle sees heavy-duty use, that number lowers to every 15,000 miles instead.
Automatic transmission – this is highly dependent on your vehicle. Some recommend as often as every 30,000 miles and others say never. Typically, they range from 60,000 to 100,000 miles, however, changing the fluid more often doesn’t harm the vehicle.
If you are unsure when to service your vehicle transmission, give us a call at JP Auto & Fleet Services so we can advise you as to what is best for your vehicle.
What is an Automatic Transmission Fluid Change?
Your transmission drives your wheels. The special fluid lubricates and cools the gears inside. As time goes on, the fluid degrades, and these lubrication qualities diminish. By having a transmission fluid change from JP Auto & Fleet Services, you prevent damage and premature wear.
Service includes:
Automatic Transmission Filter Replacement
It’s also important to replace the transmission filter so the contaminants and dirt stay out of your transmission fluid.
Service includes:
Most of the time automatic transmission service includes filter replacement and fluid changes at the same time.
Does Manual Transmission Service Differ from an Automatic Transmission?
While the fluids themselves are different, the service is comparable. Your manual transmission fluid lubricates the bearings, gears, shafts and additional internal components.
Over time, friction, pressure and heat break it down. It’s also possible to have small pieces of the metal mix with the fluid as it comes apart from the gears.
Transmission care from JP Auto & Fleet Services includes:
Purpose of Transmission Fluid Service
Once you’ve had a transmission fluid service, the tranny reduces heat, has better lubrication, and improves the ability of internal components. It’s the way to get your transmission to work better and last longer. Then, you don’t have to worry about any major transmission repairs.
We offer all these services as well as a full transmission replacement if needed.
Signs You Need a Transmission Fluid Flush
We also provide transmission fluid flush. This consists of hooking your transmission to a machine where we can flush out the entire system. This gets more of the old fluid out than with a simple service. If you aren’t sure when it’s time to get a transmission fluid flush, here are some ways your car might be trying to tell you it’s time for one.
- There’s a burning smell either outside or inside the vehicle
- You notice fluid leaking.
- The check engine light has turned on.
- When you change gears, you feel shaking or grinding.
- When you accelerate, you notice a delay in movement. While the engine revs, you’re vehicle seems to gain speed slowly.
- Shifting has become harsh or rough.
