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.

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.

Why Choose Us

Lift Inspection

During the lift inspection 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

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.

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. Some of these services will require additional charges, which we will request you authorization prior to the work being performed.

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.

Had such an amazing experience with the team at Mr. Transmission. I called them while broken down and scared and they were extremely kind and patient with me and helped me determine the possible problem and next steps. I was able to get my car towed to them right away and they had everything fixed within a couple days! The entire process was so smooth and the kind and positive attitudes of the workers did wonders. They made sure to keep me up to date every day and called promptly when the car was ready for pickup. I even accidentally overpaid (I paid with cash) and one of the workers came running out to give me the amount back. Hopefully I don’t have anymore issues with my transmission but if I do I will be coming back here.

Mike Sardo
Justin at Mister Transmission on Upper James was able to help me out when my commercial vehicle transmission failed. He was able to get my vehicle in and repaired within a very reasonable amount of time, so I was able to get back to work. Justin took the time to keep me informed as to the isusse with the transmission and the cost for repairs. He was also able to show me the worn-out parts that needed to be replaced. Thanks to Mister Transmission, I'm back on the road.
