Your transmission ensures that your wheels get the power they need at any given moment. Routine Mazda transmission service helps keep your transmission functioning properly and your vehicle running efficiently. Keep these tips in mind when scheduling service at Scott Mazda.
What Does Transmission Service Entail?
A transmission service appointment includes a thorough inspection of your transmission and its components. We’ll check to make sure your transmission is working as it should, as well as look for any unusual wear.
When necessary, we also rinse out your old transmission fluid and replace it with new fluid. We’ll replace the filter once it has become too worn or clogged, too.
How Often Do I Need Transmission Service?
Typically, we recommend transmission service every 30,000 miles or two years. It’s important that you review your owner’s manual to see the recommended timeline for your vehicle.
Keep in mind, that this is a recommended timeline for fluid and filter replacements. Many drivers opt to have their transmission inspected at every service appointment.
What Are the Signs My Transmission is Failing?
Even if you follow a routine maintenance schedule, it’s important to visit us as soon as possible for an inspection if you notice your vehicle acting unusually or witness any of these warning signs. Then, we’ll make sure that any necessary repairs or even a replacement is completed.
- Slow or hesitant gear changes
- Leaking transmission fluid
- Burning smell
- Grinding or shaking
- Check engine light is on
