At A-Ford-Able Auto Repair & Tire Service in St Augustine, we understand the importance of proper transmission maintenance. Commercial trucks are heavy, and they rack in a lot of miles. With this combination, it’s essential the transmissions in your trucks are always performing their best. Here’s a few things to watch out for:
Leaking transmissions are not only messy, but they’re also expensive to maintain and can ruin your transmission if neglected. Typically, a leak isn’t a complicated fix - the smart move is to take care of it before it becomes a big problem. Not only will you rest easy knowing the issue is resolved...you’ll save a lot of expensive transmission fluid as well.
Slippage is an issue that should be dealt with immediately. If a transmission fails to engage in reverse or drive, even if it’s just once first thing in the morning, let us take a look. While the solution could require anything from a quart of fluid to a complete rebuild, one thing is certain; the longer an issue goes unresolved, the worse it will get, and eventually, the transmission will be ruined.
Fluid changes and filter replacements at regular intervals are also a must. When a filter is dirty, the transmission is starved of fluid, meaning it lubricates poorly and wears out quickly. Don’t skip on fluid and filter service...it always pays off in the long run. Once a transmission starts to fail, it often doesn’t take long for it to stop working completely - but with the right maintenance, your transmission will provide you with many years of hard work and reliable service.
If you’re dealing with transmission issues, don’t assume the worst and keep driving it until it quits; a simple fix is often all that’s necessary to save a transmission. For fluid changes, filter installations, inspections, leak repair, and any other maintenance your transmission requires, St Augustine truck repair has you covered. Call or come by today!
