It’s important to get your transmission looked at right away if your transmission has been slipping. It can be a warning sign of transmission failure heading your way. Various factors can cause a transmission to slip, and, in some cases, a minor repair may solve the problem. A major fix will require expert diagnostics, labor, and money.
One of the most common problems that you may encounter is a slipping transmission. Transmission slipping means that it is not shifting smoothly from gear to gear or it’s slipping out of gear while driving.
In a manual transmission most of the time slipping is due to a worn-out clutch. Having the clutch replaced normally solves the issue of any slipping. In an automated transmission, slipping can be the result of damaged transmission bands, solenoids, or worn-out clutch plates. It may require replacing some if not all these different parts to fix the slipping problem. Malfunction of a torque converter can cause slipping and damage to the transmission. One of the most common causes of transmission slipping is due to dirty transmission fluid. New and clean fluid will help your gears to shift smoothly and extend the life of your transmission.
Be aware of the signs if your transmission is slipping. The following symptoms will be present. Look for and listen for strange noises during a gear change, delays in acceleration, difficulty when switching gears, vehicle will not reverse, RPMs are unusually high, unusual, or burnt smells, and the check engine light is on.
