Transmission Leak Repair

Jamie’s Transmission would like to show you how to be an environmental friend with transmission leak repair. Just bring your vehicle to us, and we will locate the leak and repair it. Repairing transmission leaks is an excellent service to the environment. Let us explain why.

Transmission fluid – that red colored liquid that keeps your transmission gears from grinding and having excess wear – is technically a hydraulic fluid. Hydraulic fluids, while exceptionally useful, are environmentally toxic. When spilled, they can leak into the groundwater system and thence into drinking water supplies. Puddled on driveways or mingled with rainwater, such fluids taste sweet to dogs or cats and are particularly deadly to felines. (They aren’t good for humans, either.) When your vehicle’s transmission is in good repair, that fluid stays where it belongs – inside your transmission, helping those gears and gear selectors do their job. Spotting a transmission leak isn’t difficult. If you suspect one, place a plastic tarp or even an old sheet under your vehicle when you park it for the night. If you have a red colored puddle or stain on the catch sheet the next morning, then you have a transmission fluid leak. Not only can leaking transmission fluid pose an environmental hazard, it will shorten the life of your transmission, as well.

Transmission service might not be something that you think about often, but most transmissions do need maintenance attention. A few units are sealed compartments which do not require service unless they develop a leak. However, most transmissions do need service. Automatic transmission use transmission fluid which can become gritty after a few years’ service just as does motor oil after miles of travel. Manual transmissions, particularly the older ones, might not use transmission fluid, but they still need lubrication. All transmissions have moving parts that, over time, can become worn and might need replaced or repaired. They also have seals at the points where they connect with the motor as well as points at which they transfer the motor’s power to the wheels. All of these things have the potential for becoming worn and needing maintenance or even replacement. Mechanical things can be made to last a long time with the proper service regimen. Transmission service should happen about once every three years in most vehicle models. If they are driven through difficult terrain or frequently driven in bad weather, they might require more maintenance.

Automatic Transmission Service

Jamie's Automatic Transmission ServiceJamie’s Transmission has everything you need for automatic transmission service. We have the skilled transmissions specialists, the manuals, the tools and – of course – the automatic transmission fluid.

Getting the transmission fluid changed about once a year can make your automatic transmission run more smoothly and last longer. The reason for this is that the transmission fluid lubricates the gear rings that allow shifting to take place. If the transmission becomes low on fluid, the gears grind together. Symptoms of a transmission that is low on fluid can include a grating noise when shifting, a burnt sugar odor, slipping out of gear or refusal to go into gear. None of these things will make a happy driver – especially if the gears stick together, causing the transmission to stop shifting at all. When this happens, the vehicle can come to a dead stop in the middle of rush hour traffic! We don’t need to explain how many ways this can turn out badly. Checking the transmission fluid is a comparatively inexpensive process, and it usually only needs to be done once a year. Unlike motor oil, transmission fluid is in a sealed environment. If it is leaking, then a seal is broken or a bolt has come loose somewhere.

If it is time for your automatic transmission service, call Jamie’s Transmission at (425) 335-0220 to set up an appointment for your vehicle. It will thank you with better performance – and your transmission will last longer. It will not prevent all possible mechanical problems, but it will delay the need for major repairs to your transmission. Should that time arrive, we have the skills for that too.
