About this repair
Transmission trouble starts small: a delayed shift, a slip, a noise. Catching it early is far cheaper than waiting. We find out whether the problem is fluid, a sensor, a solenoid or something inside the gearbox, and tell you honestly whether it needs a repair, a rebuild or a replacement.
Signs you need it
- Slipping, delayed or harsh shifts
- The engine revs but the car does not speed up
- Whining, clunking or grinding in gear
- Reddish or dark fluid under the car, or a burnt smell
Don't replace it. Repair it.
Before you replace the transmission
A slipping or noisy gearbox is not always a dead one. A solenoid, a seal, a clutch pack, a worn clutch or a bad mount can feel the same. We find which one it is before anyone talks about a new unit.

Common questions
Does it need a rebuild or a replacement?
That depends on what failed. A fluid, sensor or solenoid fault may be a smaller repair, while internal wear usually means a rebuild or a replacement unit. A proper diagnosis comes first.
Does transmission fluid need to be changed?
Often yes. The interval depends on the vehicle, so follow the manufacturer's recommendation, and change it sooner if you tow or drive in heavy traffic.
