TRANSMISSION FLUSH & SERVICE
Replacing old transmission fluid with transmission flush / oil change. Over time, transmission fluid can become contaminated, leading to poor shifting and potential damage. Our transmission flush service removes old, dirty fluid and replaces it with fresh fluid, ensuring smooth shifting and optimal transmission function.





Transmission Flush & Transmission Oil Change

Transmission Flush Service
Add Cleaner: A chemical cleaner is added to the existing transmission fluid. This cleaner is designed to break down and loosen any accumulated sludge, varnish, or debris inside the transmission.
Circulate Fluid: The vehicle is run for a short period, allowing the cleaner to circulate through the transmission.
Flush Fluid: The old transmission fluid, along with the loosened debris and cleaner, is then flushed out of the transmission.
Replace Fluid: Fresh transmission fluid is added to the system.

The Benefits of a Transmission Flush Include:
Removing contaminants: A flush can help remove built-up contaminants in the transmission, such as metal shavings or other debris, that can cause damage to the transmission.
Extending the life of the transmission: By removing contaminants and replacing all of the fluid, a flush can help extend the life of the transmission.
Improving performance: A transmission flush can improve the shifting performance of the transmission, which can result in a smoother driving experience.

TRANSMISSION OIL CHANGE SERVICE OVERVIEW
Transmission Fluid Change
Purpose: A transmission fluid change involves draining the old transmission fluid and replacing it with new fluid. This service is intended to maintain the proper lubrication and cooling of the transmission components.
Transmission Oil Change Process:
Drain Fluid: The old transmission fluid is drained from the transmission pan, usually by removing the pan or a drain plug.
Replace Filter (if applicable): Many transmissions have a filter that should be replaced during a fluid change. The filter helps to catch debris and contaminants.
Replace Pan Gasket (if applicable): If the pan was removed, the gasket is often replaced to prevent leaks.
Add New Fluid: Fresh transmission fluid is added to the transmission to the appropriate level.
The Benefits of a Transmission Oil Change Include:
Maintaining proper lubrication: Fresh transmission fluid helps ensure that the gears and other moving parts in the transmission are properly lubricated, which can prevent damage and wear.
Improving shifting performance: Over time, transmission fluid can become contaminated and lose its ability to lubricate and protect the transmission. A fluid change can improve the shifting performance of the transmission.
Preventing overheating: Dirty or degraded transmission fluid can cause the transmission to overheat, which can lead to damage and potentially costly repairs. Regular fluid changes can help prevent overheating.
Your vehicle's owner's manual or our trusted transmission shop will provide guidance on the recommended maintenance schedule for your vehicle's transmission.
Is Transmission Service The Same As A Transmission Flush?
Our transmission service varies on your vehicle maintenance schedule. Just like changing engine oil, you want to maintain your transmission for better performance and internal components. Here are a few of the different types of transmission service we offer for customers. The most common transmission service we perform include:
Automatic transmission fluid exchange service:
Automatic transmission drain and fill service:
Automatic transmission filter change service:
The main purpose of a transmission service is to keep the internal gears and parts well lubricated with fresh clean oil to help reduce friction and heat and deter an expensive transmission repair or rebuild in the future.
Is a Transmission Fluid Change Necessary?
Yes, a transmission flush or fluid change is necessary. Any oil running through your vehicle will require a change at certain intervals. The time for a transmission oil change frequency varies depending on vehicle type and use.. All engine fluids flowing throughout your engine are critical for the operation of your vehicle. Transmission fluid is no different and should be changed the longer you own your vehicle. Keeping track of your transmission fluid level and whether or not you should change the fluid or flush the transmission is no debate.
