When you need transmission repair

  • Slipping — engine revs rise but the car does not accelerate.
  • Harsh or delayed engagement, especially cold.
  • Juddering at low speed in a dual-clutch car.
  • Transmission warning light or limp mode.

Typical turnaround: 3 days - 2 weeks. Typically needed fluid every 60,000 - 80,000 km.

Four questions that expose a bad quote

  • Has the fluid been checked and the codes read before a rebuild was proposed?
  • Is a service and adaptation reset worth trying first?
  • Rebuild in-house or sent out — and who honours the warranty?
  • Is the torque converter included in the quoted price?
