How can you tell if you're having auto transmission problems?

Your transmission is instrumental in getting the power from your engine to your wheels - so any problems could leave your car unable to move.

Fortunately, transmission issues have a series of symptoms that are usually easy to identify:

• Slow shifting - automatic transmissions usually change gears quickly. If it's taking longer than usual, it could mean you have low or leaking fluid in your transmission
• Strange smells - unusual burning smells from your transmission as your car drives could indicate that an automatic transmission is overheating due to low fluid
• Leaking transmission fluid - leaking transmission fluid is an indication that a part is corroded or worn - and low fluid levels could lead to further damage - particularly around the intricate valve body
• Grinding and whining noises - unusual noises from auto transmissions could indicate that fluid levels are low or that internal components are damaged
• Dashboard warning lights - If your transmission or engine light comes on and stays on, it could be a sign that your car's ECU has detected a fault with the transmission

What does a transmission repair or service involve?

Although fluids and some parts can be accessed, serviced, or replaced without doing so - most transmission repairs will involve removing the full assembly from the vehicle.

The nature of how a gearbox or transmission works means that virtually all of the moving parts are sealed inside a large transmission case. Fixing automatic transmissions involves disassembling everything within this case, inspecting each component, then rebuilding with new parts where necessary.

It will usually help you save money in the medium to long run to have some wear items replaced at the same time as your transmission rebuild - for example, the seals and gaskets.

With all this in mind, it's perhaps obvious why transmission issues often result in expensive repairs. Searching for the best value automatic transmission specialist locally using Auto Hero will mean you keep your repair costs to an absolute minimum.
