Auto Transmission Service

Servicing your vehicle’s transmission is vital for performance and helps avoid costly problems later. A transmission service includes a thorough check and maintenance of transmission components.

This usually involves changing the transmission fluid that cools, lubricates, and cleans internal parts. Over time, the fluid degrades and becomes contaminated, which the service addresses. Sometimes a full flush is necessary to completely remove old fluid and contaminants. The service also typically includes replacing the filter to prevent debris from entering the transmission.

Your transmission is one of the most complex systems in your vehicle. It transfers power from the engine to the wheels, manages gears, and controls acceleration and deceleration.

Because it works closely with many components, regular transmission checks and servicing keep your vehicle running efficiently.

What’s Included in a Car Transmission?

A standard transmission system includes:

  • Clutch
  • Gearboxes
  • Cardan transmission
  • Main gear
  • Differential
  • Semiaxes

Depending on your vehicle’s layout—front, rear, or four-wheel drive—it may also include constant velocity (CV) joints, transfer boxes, friction, and viscous couplings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Transmission service is usually recommended every 45,000 to 95,000 kilometres, but this can vary depending on your vehicle and driving habits.

If you experience gear slipping, difficulty shifting, or unusual noises, book a transmission inspection. Don’t delay contact our technicians at Roskill Auto today for expert advice.

For manual vehicles, we suggest changing transmission fluid every 45,000 kilometres. For automatics, it’s generally every 80,000 kilometres. Early fluid replacement is especially beneficial for vehicles that tow, drive off-road, or frequently stop and start in city traffic.

Our experienced Auckland technicians service manual, automated, automatic, and CVT transmissions on both older and newer models.

Our service includes:

  • Visual inspection
  • Fluid check
  • Road test
  • On-board diagnostics (OBD) computer scan

If needed, we can perform further diagnostics including removing, disassembling, and inspecting the transmission.
