What Are the Signs My Transmission Needs Repair?
If your vehicle is experiencing issues such as delayed shifting, strange noises, or leaking fluids, it may be time to consider transmission repair.
These symptoms are more than inconveniences; they can indicate significant problems that require the attention of a professional mechanic. In Colorado Springs, these issues can be exacerbated by the region’s varied terrain, making timely service crucial.
How Often Should I Service My Transmission?
Experts recommend servicing your transmission every 30,000 to 60,000 miles. However, this can vary based on your vehicle type, driving conditions, and manufacturer recommendations.
In Colorado Springs, where the driving environment can be harsh, regular checks can prolong the life of your transmission and enhance performance. We advise discussing a maintenance plan with us to tailor servicing schedules based on your specific needs.
What Does a Transmission Flush Involve?
A transmission flush involves removing the old fluid from your transmission and replacing it with new fluid. This service keeps your transmission running smoothly and can prevent issues caused by dirt and debris.
During a flush, it’s critical to use the right type of fluid specific to your vehicle’s needs. Our technicians utilize high-quality, manufacturer-approved fluids designed to enhance performance and efficiency.

FAQs
-
Q. "What factors determine the price of transmission repair?"Many different factors go into determining costs of transmission repair. The major factor is what type of vehicle you drive. The year, make and model of the car, determine how much parts and labor will cost. Another factor is how much damage the transmission has sustained. Your transmission should last a minimum of 100,000 miles by servicing your transmission on a regular basis.
-
Q. "What does automatic transmission service include?"Fluid is first drained from the pan during an automatic transmission service. A new transmission filter is installed with a new pan gasket once the pan has been removed. Finally, fresh automatic transmission fluid (ATF) is used to refill the vehicle.
-
Q. "Is there a difference between a transmission fluid change and flush?"During a transmission fluid and filter change, it’s only the fluid in the pan that is drained and replaced with new ATF. Four to five quarts of fluid will typically be replaced in this process, while nine to thirteen quarts are replaced during a full transmission fluid flush. The difference in amounts is because the complete flush drains the entire system.
