Transmission FAQs
What does the transmission do?
The transmission transfers the power generated by your engine to the wheels. Its gearing allows your Toyota to always make the best use of its RPM range.
How do I know if my transmission needs service?
If you experience delayed shifting, slipping gears, unusual noises, fluid leaks, or warning lights on your dashboard, it's time to have your transmission checked.
How often should I get my transmission fluid changed?
Toyota typically recommends you have a transmission fluid change every 60,000-100,000 miles, but trust your owner's manual if it differs.
What's the difference between a transmission flush and a fluid change?
A fluid change is more basic, replacing most of the fluid but not all of it. A flush completely removes all of the fluid before replacing it. Our technicians can recommend the best option for you.
Do you offer transmission rebuild or replacement services?
Yes, our factory-trained technicians can perform complete transmission rebuilds or replacements. When we do, we always use genuine Toyota parts.
Can I drive with a failing transmission?
It's a bad idea to drive with a failing transmission. It can cause additional damage and also present safety concerns. If you notice issues, schedule service immediately.
What are the signs of a damaged transmission?
Grinding noises, burning smells, fluid leaks, hesitation during acceleration, or the transmission slipping out of gear are all signs that something is wrong.
