Why Your Transmission Matters

Think of your transmission as the gearbox of your car. It ensures the engine operates at the optimal RPM (revolutions per minute) for your current speed, whether you’re starting from a stop or cruising on the highway. Without a properly functioning transmission, your car wouldn’t be able to move effectively or efficiently. 

Signs It’s Time for a Transmission Check-Up

Ignoring potential transmission issues can lead to more significant and expensive problems down the line. Be alert to these common warning signs:

• Strange Noises: Whining, clunking, or humming sounds can indicate internal problems.
• Slipping Gears: If your car unexpectedly changes gears or the engine revs high without an increase in speed, your transmission might be slipping.
• Delayed Engagement: A noticeable delay when shifting from park into drive or reverse is a red flag.
• Rough Shifting: If gear changes feel abrupt, jerky, or difficult, it’s time for an inspection.
• Leaking Fluid: Bright red or dark brown fluid puddles under your car often signal a transmission fluid leak.
• Warning Light: Don’t ignore your check engine light; it can indicate a transmission fault.
