Understanding Transmission Types
Your transmission is responsible for transferring power from the engine to the wheels. But depending on your vehicle, the way it works can be completely different.
Automatic and manual systems have their own advantages—and their own repair needs.
Common Causes of Transmission Failure
Transmission failure can start with a small part and turn into a big problem if left unchecked.
Here are some of the most common reasons transmissions break down:
If your car is slipping gears, leaking fluid, or refusing to move when in drive, it’s time to bring it in.

Transmission Trouble? You're Not Alone
Ignoring the signs of a transmission issue can leave you stuck—literally. The longer you wait, the worse the damage gets. That’s why we offer in-depth inspections and targeted transmission repairs that match your vehicle’s needs.
Transmission Services Offered:
- Transmission Fluid Replacement
Dirty or low fluid is one of the most common causes of transmission failure. Routine fluid changes help reduce friction and overheating. - Clutch Repair
Difficulty shifting, grinding noises, or a spongy pedal could mean clutch problems. We replace worn clutches in both automatic and manual transmissions. - Transmission Replacement
When a rebuild isn’t worth it, a full replacement may be the most cost-effective option. We install quality transmissions that match your vehicle’s specs. - Transfer Case Repair
Losing power in a 4WD system? The transfer case directs torque to your wheels, and a failure here can cause imbalance and poor performance. - Torque Converter Replacement
If your car shakes when idling or slips when accelerating, the torque converter may be the problem. Replacing this component helps restore smooth driving. - Transmission Solenoid Repair
Solenoids manage fluid movement inside the transmission. When they fail, shifting becomes unpredictable. We diagnose and replace faulty solenoids fast. - 4×4 and AWD Transmission Repair
Power distribution matters. We service transfer cases and differentials to keep your all-wheel or 4-wheel drive system working correctly.
No, a bad transmission doesn’t always mean the end for your car. We service transmissions on new and old vehicles alike, from popular brands like Ford, Toyota, Chevrolet, Honda, Nissan, BMW, Kia, and more.
The cost of repair can vary based on the issue, and sometimes a rebuild or targeted fix is all you need. We can assess the condition and help you decide on the best path forward, without pushing a replacement unless it’s truly necessary.
The transmission is made up of many moving parts, and a single failure can affect the whole system. Here are the most common causes:
- Worn-out clutch
- Low or dirty transmission fluid
- Faulty torque converter
- Malfunctioning solenoids
Catching these issues early can save you from a complete breakdown.
Regular maintenance and smart driving habits go a long way. Avoid harsh acceleration and towing beyond your vehicle’s capacity. Shift gears smoothly and get your transmission fluid checked and changed according to the manufacturer’s guidelines. Pay attention to warning signs and get issues diagnosed early.
