Transmission Maintenance & Service in Winnipeg, Manitoba

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.

Thomas Hein
We had a great experience with Mister Transmission. They rebuilt a transmission for one of our trucks, and everything went very smoothly. They took the time to explain what was broken, what needed to be done, and what to expect. They had the truck finished faster than we expected, and the truck runs great now. We also had another transmission rebuilt by them last year, and it has been holding up great as well. Great service, good communication, and quality work. We would definitely use Mister Transmission again and would recommend them to others!

Tara McLauchlan
We’ve been taking our Promaster campervan to this location for years. Their service has always been fast, friendly and fair. They’ve been able to repair anything we’ve asked of them. We recently took our van on a cross Canada road trip, we ended up having issues with our transmission just outside of Ottawa. Phil from Mr Transmission Winnipeg, was able to communicate with the location in Ottawa to honour the nation wide warranty. Even though we were 6000 kms over our warranty, Phil covered all the repairs under warranty and was checking in to make sure we got back on the road safely.

Liz Gosselin
My 2016 Dodge Journey would not pick up speed without revving at a really high rpm. Transmission was slipping and revved hard in reverse. Took it in to Mister Transmission on Portage Ave knowing I most likely needed a new transmission. Got them to check and yes I needed one. They gave me the money back for the diagnostic and I paid for the new transmission. They also provided me with a courtesy car for 5 days. They did the work so quick and made sure my car was fixed properly. My car runs like a brand new vehicle. It picks up speed, rpm is good, and doesnt shake in reverse anymore. Special thanks to Phil and the team for repairing my car and getting it back to working order. They also have a good warrenty on the new transmission. Completely worth the money. Thanks guys.
