No matter if it is a transmission problem or maintenance, there are a few services that transmission shops will use to check or diagnose a transmission. Here are four important services performed by a transmission technician:
Transmission Fluid Check
Low or dirty transmission fluid is a common reason for transmission problems. Transmission technicians check the transmission fluid when inspecting and diagnosing a transmission issue. Checking the transmission fluid can even be checked at home. Transmission fluid should be odorless with a reddish tone. A strong odor or dark tint could indicate low or contaminated transmission fluid.
On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) Computer Scans
Modern transmissions are designed to function with the use of an on-board computer. These on-board computers help to control the functions of the transmission. Computers make transmission performance work with ease, but when there is an issue with the on-board computer it can result in transmission problems. Most transmission shops have an OBD computer scan to help identify any computer issues.
Lift Inspections
This is an important transmission service used as an additional way to inspect, though it is not as frequency used as other services. If the transmission problem is not completely recognized, a transmission professional with do a lift inspection. Lift inspections help to inspect more factors and search for minor adjustments that could help the problem.
Road Tests
Road tests can be performed before and after a transmission service. Often, they are used to test out and experience transmission issues, such as grinding, slipping, and jerking. This service can help to indicate the transmission problem. That is why when you drop off your vehicle, it is important to relay all the symptoms you are experiencing.
