Preventive maintenance is crucial for extending your transmission's life and avoiding expensive repairs. Our comprehensive transmission service includes fluid level checks, condition analysis, filter replacement, and pan cleaning when necessary.

When major transmission work is needed, our skilled technicians provide expert rebuild and replacement services. We use high-quality parts that meet or exceed OEM specifications for all rebuilds. Our thorough process includes cleaning and inspecting all components, replacing worn parts, and updating to improved designs when available. Each rebuilt transmission undergoes extensive testing to ensure proper operation, and we back our work with competitive warranties for your peace of mind.
Most manufacturers recommend transmission service every 30,000-60,000 miles. However, frequent towing, stop-and-go traffic, or harsh driving conditions may require more frequent service
Common signs include delayed or rough shifting, slipping gears, burning smell, unusual noises, check engine light, and fluid leaks. Early diagnosis can prevent more extensive damage.
A basic transmission service typically takes 2-4 hours. Complete rebuilds or replacements may require 2-4 days, depending on parts availability and complexity.
This depends on your vehicle’s age, mileage, and overall condition. We provide detailed inspections and honest recommendations based on cost-effectiveness and long-term reliability.
Regular maintenance, avoiding aggressive driving, warming up your vehicle properly, and maintaining proper fluid levels can significantly extend transmission life. Also, address any issues promptly to prevent more serious problems.
