Technical Diagnostics

Advanced Technology for Assessing Transmission Problems

At Mister Transmission we have access to leading-edge diagnostic equipment, enabling us to offer you the fastest and most accurate findings about what’s going on inside your vehicle’s transmission. Today’s vehicles come equipped with complex computer systems. Our technology can talk to your car’s computer systems to find your specific transmission problems.

The first step in assessing your transmission involves your technician connecting the diagnostic equipment to your vehicle’s on-board computer. This will produce a code stating where the problem lies. Next, the vehicle is taken for a test drive so that we can monitor its behaviour in real-time. While more comprehensive and hands-on evaluations may yet be required, technology is an important tool in determining the right starting point for further investigations.

Steve Gard
I had a noisy whining noise coming from the drivetrain of my truck and needed to find a shop to inspect it promptly. I quickly found out that there were not many places I could go to in my area. One place suggested Mr Transmission would be a good place to get it looked at. I drove in spoke with the manager, Chris Guziak who had his employees take it for a test drive and then into the shop for inspection afterwards.It was discovered that it was a front differential spline bearing. I had recently purchased the truck which had an active warranty still on it. Chris promptly made out a repair estimate and with some patient negotiations with the warranty company finalized the coverage of the repair costs. Then settled on a date to get the parts & have the truck repaired. After leaving the the truck first thing in the morning, Chris sent me a message at 1:45pm to tell me the repairs had been completed! I was very pleased overall with their expedient, professional service. 🙂

Marijane Doyle
Justin at Mr. Transmission on Upper James Street is honest, professional, and truly stands behind his work. When my engine light came back on just 10 days after the repair—even though I had driven the car only twice—he asked me to bring it in right away. He quickly determined that the brand-new replacement part was defective, replaced it, and charged me nothing for the additional diagnosis or repair. That kind of honesty and commitment to customer service is rare today. I highly recommend Justin and his team.

Went in with what I thought was a transmission problem, ended up being something else. They helped me diagnose it, referred me to someone good, and didn’t charge me a thing. Has been a great experience.
