Auto transmission supplies power from the engine to the drive wheels. During a long period, the fluid inside the automatic transmission degrades. Manufacturers often recommend replacement at intervals stated in years of service or miles of driving. The interval may be shorter for severe use. Replacing transmission fluid and making other services done at the vehicle manufacturer’s recommended service intervals improves lubrication and helps to maximize the life of the transmission service. Manual transmissions also need servicing although this usually includes less complicated tasks, such as replacing the fluids and/or making minor adjustments.

A professional like Mechanics Sutherland Shire should always carry out clutch repairs and transmission servicing. Please feel free to contact us on (02) 9525 5368.
