Whe it comes to vehicle service and maintenance,
the transmission system is usually ignored
until there is a major problem. In most cases
people notice their vehicle is not running
properly, but ignore the problem with the
hope that the symptoms will work themselves
out. Brentwood Transmission & Auto Care Center
wants you to take care of your transmission
service and repair, because problems
may
start out small, but get worse over
time.
The following symptoms may indicate
a problem
with your transmission:
- Failing or delaying when shifting- Normally, the transmission is designed to
hold effortlessly in each gear and shift
at predetermined times and speeds.
- When shifting you notice a thumping, lagging
or lugging- Unusual noises coming from the transmission
indicates a problem internally with parts
working together.
- Red, pink or brown puddles under your vehicle-
This indicates that you have a transmission
fluid leak and is something that
you should
not ignore. This could be a minor
problem
or major. But maintaining the correct
fluid
level properly cools the transmission
and
helps to lubricate the moving parts
internally.
- Your vehicle fails to move, but the engine
is running- Indicates that you have a transmission problem
and contact Brentwood Transmission and discuss the situation with a technician.
In some cases the vehicle fails to move when
cold, but improves once the vehicle warms-up.
It would be a good idea to discuss this problem
with a technician before attempting to drive
it.
