You are probably wondering, “How can you save money at a transmission shop??” Yes, transmissions are expensive. Yes, there are lots of costly transmission repairs. A transmission shop can save you more money than you would think. You save it through transmission maintenance and preventative!


Maintenance and Preventative

You have probably heard the quote from Benjamin Franklin, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” Well, even though this quote is applied to health, it is just as true for the transmission world. Regular maintenance at transmission shops can save you hundreds or thousands of dollars. Preventative is one way to help you avoid a full transmission overhaul.

A transmission shop maintenance is similar to a doctor's check-up. You go to a doctor check-up as a health preventive, so that they can detect any health issues that should be addressed. A transmission is checking the health of your transmission. Not all maintenance has to be done by a professional. We recommended that you check your transmission fluid levels regularly. Transmission fluid should have an appropriate level, consistency, scent, and color.

What Maintenance is Performed at a Transmission Shop?

Transmission shops perform a variety of maintenance services. The main inspection includes a visual inspection, road test, diagnostic computer scan, and fluid check. If a potential problem is identified, they may have to complete a lift inspection. For a lift inspection, a transmission professional checks several specific parts of the transmissions.


Preventative should not start when you have a problem. It should start today. Transmission prevention is important for the health of your transmission. Does your vehicle need a check-up? Call us today to bring in your vehicle for an inspection.
