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 multi-check inspection of your transmission’s performance and general operation. In some cases, additional diagnostic work (up to and including) removing, disassembling and inspecting the transmission will be required, which is over and above, our free multi check inspection. The centre manager will give you an estimate for any required work over and above the free multi check inspection.

Free Road Test and Multi-Check Inspection

The Mister Transmission Free Road Test and Multi Check Inspection includes:

  • Visual Inspection
  • Fluid Check (on model with dipsticks)
  • Road Test
  • On Board Diagnostics (OBD) Computer Scan – read codes

 

Learn more about the Free Road Test and 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.

 

What’s Next After Your Multi-Check Inspection?

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 removal and examination provides the centre manager, technician, and yourself 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.

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 was having shuddering issues...
Teodoro Sigarra
I was having shuddering issues at low speeds and RPM fluctuations while driving on the highway. I took my car to the dealership, and even though it had only around 80,000 km, they said it was no longer under warranty. They told me the torque converter was the problem and quoted me about $3,000 for labor alone, plus a couple thousand more for parts. Thankfully, I decided to get a second opinion from Mister Transmission. They inspected my car for free, including a test drive and diagnosis, while the dealership wanted to charge me $200 just for diagnostics. After they serviced my car, it runs like new again no more shuddering and no more RPM fluctuations. The best part is that I paid less than $1,000, saving thousands of dollars. It was money well spent. I 100% recommend this place. They are honest, professional, and don't try to upsell unnecessary repairs. If you're having transmission issues, do yourself a favor and visit Mister Transmission before going to the dealership.

Kristin Stimers
I can't say enough on how pleased I am with the professionalism and competency of Dan and his staff. I've been burned before by shady mechanics and I can honestly say they are some of the best! Dan was polite and friendly from my first phone call, and he took the time to LISTEN to all my questions and answered them in a clear and kind way that helped me understand the problem. Not once did I feel like I was being rushed out of there. The problem (leaky transmission) was fixed in a timely manner and it was done well. He noticed another issue that was causing me problem (bad ball joints) but I never once felt like he was trying to "find" issues and upsell me. He solved this one as well and now my car sounds better than it did when I first purchased the vehicle used. I would definitely recommend Dan and his staff for not only transmission related issues but for all mechanical issues. The final bill was VERY reasonable. I'm so VERY happy that I found Dan at Mister Transmission. THANK YOU!!

Jared R
I was redirected to Mister Transmission from another brand mechanic in town and I was really impressed with the service at Mister Transmission. Jenn had excellent communication with me throughout the whole process and was very accomodating. Once they did a full diagnostic on my car and were unable to find any major issues, they actually wound up not charging me anything for the diagnostic and road test after I thought it was going to cost me hundreds of dollars. They were very professional and friendly with me, so I recommend giving them a try and will be returning to them if I ever have transmission issues needing their specialized care.
