Signs your transmission needs attention

Catching a problem early is usually the difference between a repair and a rebuild. If your vehicle is doing any of these, have it looked at before you keep driving on it.

Slipping gears

RPMs climb but the vehicle does not pick up speed, or it drops out of gear on its own.

Hard or delayed shifts

A pause, jerk or bang going into drive or reverse, or between gears on the road.

Red or brown fluid on the driveway

Transmission fluid should stay in the transmission. A leak only gets worse with miles.

Grinding, whining or clunking

New noises when shifting, accelerating or turning often point to the transmission or driveline.

Burning smell

Overheated fluid has a sharp, burnt odor and stops protecting the parts inside.

Check engine or transmission light

The computer has logged a fault. Reading the code tells us where to start.
