Why Transmission Service Matters

Your transmission endures a lot of stress, especially in Calgary’s varied driving conditions—city traffic, highway commutes, and winter terrain can all take their toll. Regular transmission service helps prevent costly breakdowns, extend the life of your transmission, and ensure optimal performance every time you drive.

Benefits of regular transmission service include:

• Smoother gear changes

• Improved fuel efficiency

• Extended transmission lifespan

• Reduced risk of overheating

• Fewer breakdowns and emergency repairs

• Better overall vehicle performance

Skipping service or ignoring early warning signs can lead to complete transmission failure, which is often one of the most expensive repairs a vehicle can need.

Common Signs You Need Transmission Repair

Your car will often give off early symptoms when the transmission is struggling. If you notice anything unusual with how your vehicle shifts or accelerates, it’s important to get it checked out promptly to avoid more serious damage.

Watch for these signs:

• Delayed or hard shifting

• Slipping gears or jerking between shifts

• Grinding noises while shifting

• Transmission fluid leaks (reddish or brownish fluid)

• Burning smell from under the hood

• Unusual whining or buzzing sounds

• Dashboard transmission warning light

• Lack of response when shifting into gear

If you’re experiencing any of these issues, come in for a transmission diagnostic. We’ll pinpoint the problem and explain your repair options clearly and honestly.

Transmission Fluid Service

Just like engine oil, your transmission fluid breaks down over time. It also picks up debris and contaminants that can clog components and reduce performance. Keeping your fluid clean and at the right level is key to avoiding overheating and wear.

Benefits of regular transmission fluid changes:

• Prevents overheating and internal damage

• Maintains smooth shifting

• Reduces component wear

• Extends transmission life

• Improves fuel economy

Most manufacturers recommend fluid service every 50,000 to 100,000 kilometers, but this can vary depending on the vehicle and driving conditions. We’ll check your fluid condition and let you know if it’s time for a change.

Advanced Transmission Diagnostics

Not sure what’s wrong? That’s where our transmission diagnostic process comes in. Using state-of-the-art scan tools and years of technical expertise, we read error codes, analyze live data, and test mechanical components to accurately identify the source of the issue.

Our diagnostic process includes:

• Transmission control module (TCM) scan

• Fluid condition and level check

• Road test to assess performance

• Physical inspection of cables, mounts, and sensors

• Torque converter and valve body assessment

• Shift solenoid and clutch pack testing

We don’t just throw parts at the problem. We take the time to figure out what’s really going on—and fix it the right way, the first time.

Transmission Rebuild vs. Replacement

When internal damage is severe, we may recommend either a rebuild or full replacement of your transmission. Each option has pros and cons, and we’ll help you weigh them based on your vehicle’s age, mileage, and value.

Transmission rebuild includes:

• Disassembling the transmission

• Inspecting and replacing worn or damaged parts

• Cleaning and reassembling with new seals, gaskets, and fluid

• Testing for proper function

Transmission replacement includes:

• Installing a new or remanufactured unit

• Transferring compatible components

• Reprogramming if needed

We’ll walk you through the costs, timelines, and warranty options so you can make the right decision for your budget and needs.
