Transmission Maintenance & Service in Pickering, 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.

I have nothing but good things to say about Mister Transmission Pickering. We were experiencing transmission problems with our Mini-van. After calling around several local shops in the area, Mister Transmission appeared to stand out from the rest of the shops so I went with them. I dealt with Ken and Chris during my visit. I was advised of what repairs my van needed. The price was very reasonable, Ken even offered to drive me home so I could continue on with my day while the repairs were being done. All in all I had a great experience with Mister Transmission. I am very happy with the time it took for the repairs to complete as well the cost of the repair was reasonable and well within my price range. Highly Recommended!

Sanjana Gunaratne
I got my transmission fluid and pan replaced here today and was thoroughly impressed with the shear professionalism from Chris Lavender. He was never pushy and answered all my questions with an honest and calm demeanour. Some of those questions weren’t even related to the specific job but he answered them thoroughly regardless. The pricing here is extremely reasonable as well!
