When you visit us at Kearny Mesa Chevrolet, our expertly trained technicians will walk you through the basics of transmission service and help figure out the exact issue.

When to Visit for Chevrolet Transmission Service

It can be concerning when something begins to go wrong with your car and the Chevrolet parts inside, but thankfully there are warning signs you can look out for to stop the issue before it gets too big. Here are some of the symptoms to watch out for:

• Erratic Shifting: If your transmission no longer feels as smooth as it once did or the shifting feels clunky or abnormal, your transmission fluids could be running low.
• Abnormal Noises: If you hear grinding or squealing noises when you perform a gear shift, you might need to visit us for service.
• Burning Smell: Notice a burning smell when shifting? If you have a manual transmission, you could need a new clutch plate.
• Gear Changes Without Shifting: If you no longer have control over your transmission and your gears are shifting without your input, visit us ASAP for a replacement.

How to Care for Your Transmission

All of this can sound concerning, but thankfully there are a number of things you can do at home to care for your transmission before you have to visit our Chevy service department. Make sure to watch your transmission fluids along with your engine oil as they’re checked in similar ways – if the fluids are low or murky, stop by our service center.

It’s also heavily recommended to get a transmission flush at least once a year, but this can depend on the make and model of your vehicle.
