Transmission Maintenance Keeps Your Transmission in Good Health

Transmission maintenance is the best preventative for the health of your transmission.

Your transmission should have regular transmission check-ups. Similar to how you go to the doctor regularly for your health, your vehicle runs its best when it has preventative maintenance. You can choose to wait until there is a problem, but that comes with the risk of major, expensive repairs or even transmission failure.

Just like you go to doctor appointments to prevent health problems or to keep health problems from getting worse, your transmission should be checked by a professional transmission technician. We recommend you go to a reliable, professional shop that specializes in transmissions over a regular automotive shop.


Transmission Maintenance Keeps Transmission Fluid in Good Condition

Common transmission maintenance is related to transmission fluid. Transmission fluid should not be low, dirty, or burnt. Bringing your transmission in for maintenance helps your transmission fluid remain healthy and clean. If transmission fluid is leaking it will result in low fluid, which can burn up the transmission if left unaddressed. When transmission fluid gets too dirty and contaminated, it may require a transmission flush to clean out the system.


If it has been more than 50,000 miles since your last transmission service, you should consider bringing your vehicle to a transmission shop. Many transmission technicians recommend maintenance services every 30,000 miles to 60,000 miles for optimal transmission performance.
