Comprehensive Transmission Services We Offer
We cover all major transmission services — from routine maintenance to full rebuilds — for cars, SUVs, and light-duty trucks:
- Transmission fluid change & flush – Regular fluid service helps maintain proper lubrication, cooling, and friction management, extending transmission life.
 
- Filter and pan replacement – Many automatic transmissions contain internal filters; replacing them during service helps prevent sludge and wear.
 
- Torque converter inspection & replacement – A failing torque converter can cause shuddering, slipping, or overheating. We inspect and replace as needed.
 
- Clutch pack, band, and valve body service – These internal components wear over time. We rebuild or repair them to restore smooth shifting and internal operation.
 
- Leak diagnosis & seal replacement – Transmission fluid leaks lead to low fluid levels, overheating, and internal damage. We locate leaks, replace seals, and restore proper fluid containment.
 
- Full transmission rebuild or replacement – When repair isn’t cost-effective, we offer full rebuilds or quality replacements with warranty support.
 
- Manual transmission service (if applicable) – From clutch replacement to gear and synchro service, we handle both automatic and manual systems.
 
When to Schedule Transmission Service
It’s best to follow your vehicle manufacturer’s interval for fluid change (often every 30,000–60,000 miles), but you should seek inspection immediately if you notice:
- Gears slipping, delayed engagement, or vehicle revving but not moving
 
- Strange noises (whining, grinding) coming from under the vehicle
 
- Dark or burnt-smelling transmission fluid
 
- Fluid leaks or low fluid levels
 
- Transmission warning light or check engine light related to transmission faults
 
Ignoring these warnings can lead to more damage, higher repair bills, or complete transmission failure. At Mike’s Auto Service, we provide a clear diagnosis, discuss your options, and perform the repair that’s right for your vehicle and budget.
