Transmission Repair in Spanaway, WA

Comprehensive Transmission Repair and Replacement Services

Responsible for shifting the gears within your vehicle, the transmission system plays an important role in the quality of your drive and the performance of your vehicle. For automatic drivers, it gives them the luxury of smoothly shifting from “Park,” “Reverse,” and “Drive.” For manual drivers, it gives them the added benefit of controlling the vehicle’s RPMs and letting it know when exactly it needs to change gears. It’s a complex piece of equipment that requires a special eye when it needs servicing, and that’s where Austin’s Pro Max comes in.

Keeping Your Transmission Healthy

Just like any other component or system in your vehicle, it’s important to properly care for your transmission system. Although the best way is to bring your vehicle in for a routine checkup, there are other methods you can implement that’ll ensure your transmission system is running smoothly in between visits. Here are three ways you can ensure that your transmission system is always performing at its best!

Inspect Your Fluid

When inspecting your transmission fluid, you want to pay attention the color and level. The fluid should have a bright red, sweet smell to it. If you notice that the fluid is dark or it smells bad, then it may be time to have your fluid changed. As for the fluid, if you notice that the level is low then you need to see one of our technicians immediately. Unlike the engine, the transmission system does not use up any transmission fluid, so the change in level is most certainly caused by a leak. If not attended to, this leak could cause additional damage to your transmission system!

Consistent Fluid Flush

By getting your transmission fluid flushed*, you’ll be able to help fill the transmission with fresh new fluid that’ll help improve its performance. Along with that, a transmission flush will help get rid of any sludge that may have built up in your transmission system over time. Sometimes a flush isn’t necessary, so make sure you give our shop a call and learn if your vehicle will need this service!

*This service should only be performed by a professional technician

Use The Right Fluid

Make sure you take the time to understand what transmission fluid your vehicle will need. This will vary based on your vehicle’s specifications so make sure to check your vehicle’s manufacturer’s guide to determine what’s best!
