How long has it been since you last had the automatic transmission on your car or truck serviced? Maintaining your vehicle's transmission by having it cleaned, conditioned and filled with fresh fluid is a great preventive maintenance strategy to help avoid unexpected breakdowns and potentially costly repairs. Ignoring the health of the automatic transmission system could result in some of the most expensive repairs you could possibly face. As time goes by and the miles add up, the fluid inside a transmission starts to break down. It can also become plugged up with dirt and sludge which can actually block the flow of transmission fluid. A dirty transmission may cause you to experience a number of problems including gear slippage, unexpected surging, strange noises, difficulty shifting, and more. A transmission flush may be just the answer to correcting these issues and will also help to restore the transmission to peak operating performance. It should not be difficult to locate a shop near you that offers preventive maintenance services. The cost of a transmission flush is minimal compared to what you might pay for a serious transmission repair. This procedure usually consists of running a cleaning solution and conditioner throughout the entire transmission system. Brand new fluid is also added until all the old fluid has been flushed out. As a general rule of thumb, this preventive maintenance procedure should be performed every 2 years or every 30,000 miles. These intervals also depend on how much and what type of driving you do. Be sure to take a look at the owner's manual for detailed recommendations pertaining to your car or truck.
