The Tell-Tale Signs You Need Automotive Transmission Care

Not paying attention to the very first warnings issued by your car can mean the difference between a basic service of the transmission system and an entire expensive overhaul. Being your professional and honest mechanic in Reading, Pennsylvania we would ask you to be very attentive to the following frequent symptoms:

1.      Strange Noises

When you can hear the grinding, humming or whining of your transmission (particularly when changing gears (in a manual) or when the vehicle is in neutral (in an automatic)) then it is the first warning. Low fluid, damaged bearings or broken gear teeth are some of the noises that often suggest these problems.

2.      Rough or Delayed Shifting

In the case of an automatic, there is a clear hesitation or jolt or clunk at the time the transmission moves to change gears, then there is something amiss. When it becomes hard to shift the car into its gear, or you as you change gears feel like you are grinding the car, this is all indicative of the need to service the manual transmission of the car, maybe the clutch or the fluid. It is among the most frequent factors which make drivers of Leesport and West Reading, PA visit our shop.

3.      Leaking Fluid

The transmission fluid is mostly red or pink in color and possesses a light sweet smell. When you notice that there is a puddle of this fluid under your car then you have a leak. The quickest method of killing a transmission is to be low because there is much friction and heat. Simple fixes can be done within the same day, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and repair the transmission leak within a short time.

4.      Burning Smell

A burning smell may be distinct, sweet or acrid and is an indication of overheated transmission fluid. This normally occurs when the fluid becomes old, contaminated or low and therefore the internal components create too much friction. 

5.      Warning Lights

Although it is self-explanatory, the check engine or transmission indicator on your dashboard is a direct order. Our ASE certified Expert provide advanced diagnostics to identify the problem accurately, which provides an easy and stress-free process of repair.
