Auto transmission service
Servicing your vehicle’s transmission is essential to its performance and is effective in avoiding complicated and expensive transmission problems later on. An automatic transmission service involves a comprehensive check and maintenance of transmission components.
This includes changing the transmission fluid that cools, lubricates, and cleans internal parts. Over time, this fluid can degrade and become contaminated, which a service will address. In some cases, a full flush might be needed to entirely remove the old fluid and contaminants. The service also typically includes a filter replacement, ensuring harmful debris is prevented from entering the transmission.
Your transmission is one of the most complicated systems in your vehicle. It is responsible for the transfer of power from your engine or motor to your wheels, managing your gears, controlling how your car speeds up, slows down and reacts as you need it to.
With so many interrelated parts, there are several components that the transmission interacts with that need to be in prime condition for your vehicle to run efficiently. Therefore it’s important to have your transmission checked and serviced as required.

What is included in the transmission of the car?
A standard car transmission kit consists of several components:
- clutch
- gearboxes
- cardan transmission
- main gear
- differential
- semiaxes
Depending on the layout (front, rear, four-wheel drive), the transmission may include other components including: constant velocity joints (CV joints), transfer boxes, friction, and viscous couplings.
