Smooth Shifting with Expert Transmission


CX-9 2022

Buying a Mazda vehicle at Scott Mazda comes with plenty of benefits – one of which is the peace of mind provided by our service center. Everything your car needs to enjoy a long, healthy lifespan is here under one roof, including expert transmission service.

Why is the Transmission Important?

Every vehicle sold at our local Mazda dealership boasts a top-of-the-line transmission. This is the system that’s responsible for transferring power from your car’s engine to its wheels.

An automatic transmission ‘automatically’ shifts the car into different gears depending on the speed at which the car is moving. This system comes with an oil pan which contains the transmission filter and transmission fluid, which provides the force required to automatically shift gears.

Meanwhile, in manual transmission car the driver is responsible for shifting the gears. And instead of an oil pan, manual transmission cars have a case that contains the transmission fluid.

Transmission Services We Provide

Working in partnership with our Mazda parts center, our service team gives your car’s transmission everything it needs for top performance. In most cases, this means periodically replacing the pan gasket, filter, and transmission fluid.

However, some vehicles don’t have a serviceable transmission filter, while other vehicles have transmissions that are designed to be ‘sealed for life’ – meaning that they never require service or maintenance.

Our approach is different for manual transmissions since they come with a case that does not contain a filter. What this means is that as the transmission’s components wear down, particles of metal start to mix with the transmission fluid, which is unable to filter them.

Thankfully, the process of servicing a manual transmission is straightforward: we drain the case and discard any metal particles we find. Then we fill the case with fresh transmission fluid.

You’ll also be happy to know that regardless of your car’s transmission style, you can always take advantage of our regular Mazda service specials. These apply not just to transmission service, but also tires, brakes, and more.
