With our step by step transmission diagnostic service, our transmission mechanic will find what transmission problem(s) you have. The Transmission Performance Check consists of a compressive transmission fluid check, road test, transmission pan examination, under car inspection and computer diagnostic scan. The automatic transmission fluid check is generally the first indicator of possible transmission problems. Under close observation the transmission fluid and smell can indicate transmission wear and damage. If there is an unpleasant odor or discoloration in combination with other symptoms the transmission may require further diagnostics and a possible internal transmission inspection. An automatic transmission in good operating condition will have a red fluid color, no contaminates and no burnt smell.

The road test is made up of a stationary test and a driving test. During these two tests, the automatic transmission is checked for initial engagements, slipping, vibrations, noises, harsh shifting, soft shifting, erratic shifting, late shifting, early shift patterns, passing gear, torque converter clutch engagement. Our transmission mechanic will perform an under the automobile inspection to help determine what type of adjustment(s), repair(s) or replacement(s) may be needed. During the under the automobile inspection our mechanic will check the following: Neutral Switch, Throttle Linkage, Manual Linkage, Cooler Lines, Modulator, Modulator Vacuum, Electronic Components, Harness connections, Wire condition, Transmission pan gasket, front seal, rear seal, axle seals, rear main seal, Transmission Mounts, U-Joints and Cv Axles.

The automatic transmission oil pan examination can be a great indicator of potential transmission problems. By removing the transmission oil pan it allows our mechanic to take a partial look inside the transmission. All automatic transmission oil pans will have some metal particles in the transmission fluid or on the oil pan magnet. However, an excessive amount of metal indicates internal transmission wear and damage.

When the results of your transmission performance check show that there is an internal problem with your automatic transmission, we recommend further investigation with an internal inspection of your transmission. This internal transmission inspection consists of the removal of your automatic transmission and disassembly of the unit in order to view all internal transmission parts. During this transmission inspection, all parts will be examined for wear and damage. When the internal transmission inspection is completed, our Service Manager will provide you with a full report of those transmission items that are in need of either repair, replacement, or upgrade along with an estimate for those transmission repair services.
