A car's transmission can be one of the most difficult and costly mechanisms to replace, which is why the residents of Canton, Stoughton, Randolph, Milton and Norwood should be sure to follow their owner's manual and have a transmission flush and fluid replacement at the recommended mileage intervals.
Whether you have an automatic or manual transmission, there is a lubricating fluid (the transmission fluid) that helps keep the gears moving together smoothly and is responsible for minimizing heat and friction. The transmission gears are responsible for allowing the engine to operate at it's narrow range of speeds while providing various output speeds, helping keep engine life long.
Transmission fluid can leak, the transmission itself can feel "sticky" when gears shift or you could hear a grinding noise to help tip you off that your transmission needs service. Most of the time though, there are no audible or visual signals meaning bringing the car in for maintenance at the manufacturer's recommended intervals is highly suggested.
Failing to bring your car in for a transmission service will lead to lubricating your gears with metal shavings, shortening your transmission's life. With a transmission rebuild costing upwards of $2000, it is wise to stay on top of your transmission maintenance.
