Our skilled team of mechanics has years of hands-on experience working on transmissions for domestic and foreign makes and models.
Whether your vehicle is having issues shifting gears, slipping, making noises, leaking fluid or displaying a check engine light, we can diagnose and repair any transmission problem. We perform complete transmission rebuilds, replacements, maintenance services and more to keep you safely on the road. Read on to learn all about our transmission services and get to know Frankenstein Motors!
Using state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment, our mechanics can pinpoint the exact cause of any transmission issue you're experiencing. We'll perform a thorough test drive and examination under the hood to check transmission fluid levels and condition, leaks, abnormal sounds, vibration, problems shifting gears and any stored trouble code issues. From this we can determine if you just need a minor repair, fluid service or major overhaul like a rebuild.
An important maintenance service is changing your automatic transmission fluid and filter at factory specified intervals. Over time, transmission fluid breaks down from heat and friction which can lead to internal transmission wear. We'll thoroughly drain and refresh the fluid, replace the filter and guarantee long lasting results. Properly serviced fluid ensures smooth, reliable shifting for the life of your vehicle.
Some common transmission repairs include fixing leaks, replacing worn parts like axle seals and solenoids, clearing trouble codes, replacing faulty sensors, and adjusting the clutch or throttle cable on manual transmissions. Our mechanics have intimate knowledge of transmission components and expertly perform repairs to solve shifting and performance problems in the most cost effective way.
When an internal inspection shows excessive wear and damage to internal components like gears, shafts, drums, valves, sleeves or bands beyond simple repairs, our recommendation is a professional transmission rebuild. We'll fully disassemble your transmission, thoroughly clean and inspect all parts, replace any damaged components with improved, upgraded versions, reassemble to precise specifications, and thoroughly test it. You'll have peace of mind from our standard 1 year warranty on rebuilt transmissions.
In situations where an older, high-mileage transmission has extensive internal damage exceeding repair costs, we recommend a complete replacement. We source high-quality, computer tested and warranted replacement transmissions from reputable manufacturers, including completely remanufactured or rebuilt options offering like-new performance at half the cost. Removing your damaged unit and expertly installing the new one includes customizing fittings, configuring electronics, and ensuring seamless solutions.
A check engines light can signal problems that extend beyond just the engine - transmission issues like low fluid, solenoid failures, or gear slippage might set the light off. We explain the most common transmission-related issues that could be causing your check engine light to turn on. Learn to decode what your car is trying to tell you and prevent bigger problems down the road.
Get advice on what to look for when choosing a trustworthy, expert transmission repair shop. With so many horror stories of shops doing shoddy work or tacking on unnecessary charges, we share tips consumers need to know - from checking certifications and mechanics' experience to diagnosing issues accurately. Learn the right questions to ask so you find a transmission shop that's qualified, transparent, and committed to top-quality work on your specific vehicle.
The most common warning signs include difficult shifting, slipping gears, abnormal noises like grinding or whining, vibration/shaking, oil leaks, burning smell, flashing transmission warning light, overheating, or problems accelerating. Schedule an inspection if you notice any of these issues.
A rebuild involves fully disassembling and refurbishing your existing transmission with improved internal parts to meet strict specifications for safe, reliable transmission repair . Think of it like remodeling your transmission. A replacement means removing your entire transmission and installing a completely remanufactured transmission for like-new dependability. The costs are similar but a rebuild preserves your original.
