Manual Transmission Service & Repair Harriston, ON

A manual transmission has a clutch, which is responsible for transferring power from the engine to the transmission, allowing the driver to switch gears and control your driving experience. Compared to an automatic transmission, the manual transmission is mostly made up of mechanical gears that rely on the drive to shift.

Manual transmission service is essential for keeping your manual transmission in optimal condition. Transmission fluid naturally degrades over time, which is why replacing your transmission fluid is important to keep your gears shifting smoothly. How often you need to change your transmission fluid depends on the year, make and model of your vehicle, give your local Mister Transmission a call to find out when you

Common Problems for Manual Transmission

If you are experiencing any of the following problems, you should get your transmission checked as soon as possible. Recognizing these warning signs early is key to minimizing the cost of your repair as it may only require a minor repair or service

– Check engine light is on
– Clutch is slipping – when the clutch slips, the engine will rev but the car doesn’t move as it should, or sometime not at all. This could indicate a worn clutch or clutch pedal that may require a simple adjustment, rebuild or a new clutch.
– Grinding Noises
– Noisy in Neutral – If you feel your car ‘bumping’ or ‘clanging’, this could indicate your transmission fluid needs to be topped up
– Lack of Responsiveness or delays in movement

You have to drop many grands.....I suppose you must go here. Reliable and honest. But geeeeebus are they ever over priced!!!! No wonder they have their own loan company. 400$ for a transmission oil change, every 2 years?. Geezuz. May as well forego the oil changes and replace the transmission every 5 years!!

Great people I took my classic car there and they have opened and did a diagnostic on the transmission. It turned out it needed a re-build. I could not effort it now so I told them I will come back later. Gary, after spending all that time on the car did not charge me anything. It is very refreshing to come accross a shop like this. Thank you!

I recently brought in my 2019 Ford Escape and I was really worried about what issues I was having with my vehicle, when I met with Gary he was seriously a tremendous amount of help and went the extra mile to help me out and explain everything in detail step by step you can tell when speaking with him that he really takes pride in the work he does , he kept in touch with me throughout the week as well while working on the repair, I know people can be skeptical about getting their transmission fixed especially with the price but you can’t go wrong here I was really pleased with my experience and the final result. Thank you!

Stephen Gartshore
Fantastic experience all around! Gary, the gentleman who worked with me, was very transparent and forthcoming about every aspect of repair my car needed, and the turnaround time between dropping my car off and getting it back was just over 24 hours. Fingers crossed my car doesn't need any more maintenance done to it for awhile, but if and when it does I will definitely come back to this location!

Kevin Green
I’ve had my Tacoma in here a few times - a few years back they were able to fix leaking lines without charging me for a full aftermarket set. And today Gary diagnosed my ailing transmission and had it fixed and ready to go same day! Really appreciate the honesty and personal service. Gary even called me a few times to update me on what he was finding. This is a place you can trust.
