Manual Transmission Service
Jamie’s Transmission is ready for manual transmission repair service. Our knowledgeable team of mechanics has the experience and expertise needed to give your manual transmission the service that it needs.
While automatic transmission service is often limited to changing the transmission fluid, or perhaps changing out a filter, such is not always the case for manual transmissions. This is because they are not all constructed to use transmission fluid as a lubricant, although some of them do. Some use a particular kind of thick oil or grease, while other manual transmissions actually use regular motor oil. If in doubt, be sure to check your owner’s manual. It will list the type of oil needed, along with the correct schedule for regular maintenance. The oil in a transmission doesn’t burn the way motor oil in the motor does. But if you are having trouble shifting, it is worth your while to stop by a repair shop and get it checked. Low transmission fluid is a sign of a fluid leak, which is bad news for your transmission and for the environment. Transmission fluid needs to be changed periodically because over time the action of the shift selectors and the plates shed minute metal filings which make become gritty dirt. Eventually, instead of lubricating the oil in your transmission is acting like sandpaper.
