Frequently Asked Questions About Transmission
Most manufacturers recommend changing transmission fluid every 30,000–60,000 miles for automatic transmissions. Manual transmissions vary. Check your owner's manual or ask Abraham for the recommendation for your specific vehicle.
Transmission slipping means the transmission is changing gears unexpectedly, or the engine revs without the vehicle accelerating properly. This can be caused by low fluid, worn clutch packs, or a more serious internal problem. Don't ignore it — it can lead to complete transmission failure.
Transmission repair costs vary widely depending on the problem. A fluid change is relatively inexpensive. A solenoid replacement or seal repair is moderate. A full transmission rebuild is more costly. Abraham will diagnose the issue and give you an honest estimate before any work begins.
Many transmission problems can be repaired without a full replacement. Abraham will diagnose the specific issue and recommend the most cost-effective solution. We'll never recommend a full replacement if a repair will do the job.
Driving with a slipping transmission is not recommended. It can cause further damage and lead to a complete transmission failure, which is much more expensive to repair. If you notice slipping, bring your car in as soon as possible.
