Transmission Maintenance & Service in Hamilton, Ontario

Keep your car on the road with preventative transmission maintenance

Just as you have other parts of your car serviced, your transmission needs maintenance to ensure a long life and avoid transmission problems. Our transmission service consists of a complete diagnosis of your transmission’s performance and general operation. Several of these procedures will be performed twice; once by the centre manager, and then again by a technician. This method allows double checking of your transmission’s key systems, while providing you with added assurance.

Multi-Check Inspection in Hamilton, Ontario

The Mister Transmission Multi-Check Inspection includes:

  • Fluid Check
  • Road Test
  • Lift Inspection/Diagnosis
  • Pan Examination

 

Learn more about the Multi-Check Inspection:

Transmission Fluid Check

The fluid check indicates the first sign of possible wear and damage. A transmission in good condition will have a clear red fluid. If your fluid is discoloured or has unpleasant odour, this may be an indication of internal wear and damage which is occurring as you drive your vehicle. An unpleasant odour and discoloration, in combination with other symptoms, may require an internal inspection of your transmission.

Road Test

The road test consists of two segments: a stationary test and driving test, which together comprise the most detailed portion of the Multi-Check. Every position of your transmission will be thoroughly tested for slipping, noises, harsh, soft or erratic shifting, as well as late or early shift patterns.

Lift Inspection

During the lift inspection/diagnosis our technician will check the following:

  • Neutral Switch
  • Engine RPM
  • Throttle Linkage
  • Modulators
  • Transmission Mounts
  • U-Joints
  • Fluid Retention
  • Electronic Controls

This will determine if a minor adjustment will correct the problem of your transmission.

Pan Examination

The pan examination is the most important part of the Mister Transmission Multi-Check. It provides the centre manager, technician, and yourself with a partial look inside your transmission.

In all pans, there are some metal particles and friction material present. However, an excessive amount indicates internal wear and damage. If that is the case, and it is determined that a minor adjustment will not correct the problem, we will recommend Mister Transmission’s inspection service. This service will determine exactly what is wrong inside your transmission.

 

What’s Next After Your Multi-Check Inspection?

Inspection Service

Your transmission is one of the most complex systems in your vehicle, with hundreds of precision parts operating together. Determining the problem and providing a price sometimes requires removing and even dismantling your transmission. Not only will we be able to determine the problem, we’ll also be able to determine the cause to prevent any future problems.

Transmission Fluid Change Service

We also offer a transmission fluid change service to help ensure your transmission continues to operate at its best for years to come.

Fatima Al
I had a great experience with this mechanic. He worked on my 2015 Jeep Cherokee and was able to diagnose and fix the issue quickly and professionally. He explained everything clearly, didn’t try to upsell unnecessary repairs, and the price was fair for the work that was done.My car is now running smoothly, and I really appreciate his honesty and attention to detail. It’s not easy to find a mechanic you can trust, but I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for reliable and skilled service.Thank you so much Dan

Claudius Medouze
I took my 2020 BMW 330i to Dan at Mr. Transmission after BMW tried asking me to pay a great deal of money to fix my rear differential seals. Dan was more than nice enough to not only change 1 but both seals for way less than BMW was asking for to do one seal. I then asked Dan to hide my dashcam wire and to my surprise for no extra charge it was done. I am extremely happy with the services and prices from Mr Transmission staff as well as Dan. This will be my new mechanic shop for all my vehicles. I was always under the impression that they only did transmission, oh to my surprise... Best service ever!!! It has been 2 weeks since my service and there isn't any issue. 👍🏽 Thanks guys!!!
