Schedule Your Transmission Diagnosis
When it comes to transmission repair, it’s crucial to schedule your diagnostic as soon as you notice a dip in performance. Acting quickly eliminates the risk of further damage to your vehicle, which can lead to more costly repairs. It also protects you and your family from total mechanical failure while driving.
Signs of a Failing Transmission
Whether your vehicle is manual or automatic, the transmission is an integral system that provides control, power, and performance. So, if you experience any of the signs of a failing transmission, you should bring it to AAMCO Amarillo, TX immediately:
- Grinding Noise – Grinding or any other unusual noise means the gears are not engaging smoothly, which can contribute to accelerated transmission wear.
- Gears Slipping – A worn clutch or low fluid level are just a few of the causes of gears slipping. Addressing the issues quickly is critical for preventing further damage.
- Lack of Power – If you notice a lack of power or a delay in the acceleration, the issue may be with your transmission’s inability to deliver power from the engine to the wheels adequately.
- Fluid Leaks – Your transmission is a pressurized system that requires adequate fluid to operate efficiently. A fluid leak can lead to numerous issues.
- Burning Smells – You should never notice a burning smell while driving. A burning smell from your transmission may be an indication of a low fluid level or an overheated transmission.
