Transmission Repair
Whether your vehicle has an automatic, manual, or dual-clutch transmission, it needs to shift smoothly to deliver power efficiently. If your transmission is slipping, hesitating, or jerking, it’s time to have it looked at. At Dell’s, we handle everything from fluid flushes and sensor replacements to full transmission rebuilds. Don’t ignore the early signs—our certified team will get to the bottom of it and get you back in gear fast.
Signs You Might Need Transmission Repair
Some transmission troubles creep up on you, others hit like a surprise pothole—either way, here are some signs your transmission is trying to tell you something:
Slipping Gears
If your car slips in and out of gear or shifts unpredictably, that’s a red flag that your transmission might be wearing out.
Delayed or Rough Shifting
Shifting should be smooth. If it feels jerky, slow, or accompanied by a clunking noise, your transmission could be struggling.
Warning Lights
If your transmission or check engine light is on, your car’s onboard diagnostics may be detecting an issue with the transmission system.
Burning Smell
An overheated transmission can produce a burnt smell—often a sign of old or low fluid, or worse. Time to get it checked!
Transmission Fluid Leak
Bright red or brown puddles under your vehicle could be leaking transmission fluid. This fluid is important for lubrication and cooling. You don’t want your vehicle getting to hot as it runs because that’s when you start to run into very expensive fixes!
Grinding or Shaking
If your car grinds or shakes while shifting gears, it’s not normal—especially in automatic transmissions. You want everything to run smooth as silk!
No Response When Shifting
If the car doesn’t move or react when you put it in gear, that’s a serious sign of transmission trouble.
Common FAQs On Transmission Repairs
How often should transmission fluid be changed?
Generally, every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but check your owner’s manual. High-performance or luxury vehicles may have different needs.
What happens if I ignore transmission problems?
The issue will likely get worse, which can then progress to complete transmission failure—an expensive fix that’s best avoided with early intervention. You don’t want to have to open your pocketbook for a transmission repair if you can help it, but if you need to, it’s best to take care of the issue right away.
Is transmission repair expensive?
It depends on the repair. Minor fixes or fluid changes are affordable, but major repairs or rebuilds can be more costly. If the problem shows itself and you ignore it, you will find yourself writing a bigger check for the repairs.
Can I still drive with a slipping transmission?
You might be able to for a short time, but it’s risky. Driving with transmission issues can cause more damage and leave you stranded.
How long does a transmission repair take?
Simple repairs or fluid services can be done same-day. Full rebuilds or replacements may take a few days. We’ll always give you a realistic time estimate.
What causes transmission problems?
Low or dirty fluid, overheating, worn clutches or bands, and electronic issues are common causes. Regular maintenance helps prevent most of them. There are so many outside factors that can cause some transmissions to wear out faster – sometimes it’s just bad luck.
Is transmission flush the same as a fluid change?
Not exactly. A flush completely replaces all the fluid in the system, while a fluid change only replaces part of it. We’ll help you decide which is best for your car.
What kind of transmission fluid should I use?
Different vehicles require specific fluid types. Our team always uses manufacturer-recommended fluids to keep your transmission running at its best.
