One of the most expensive parts of the car to be repaired is the transmission. In general like most of your car they are built well.But it will be broken over time and it is vey expensive to fix.  So you want to always maintain your transmission. So let us now look into some signs of a transmission problem.

First sign of problems with a transmission is the fluid.With a dipstick you can check if there are signs of a leak in your fluid levels. If you find that the fluid is low it could be a sign of a leak.A sure sign of a problem is if the liquid isdark already and has a burnt smell.Always check the fluids of your car to make sure that there won’t be any major damage in the transmission of your car. If you notice any of thesse signs you must immediately go into an auto repair shop.  I catch a lot of transmission problems early in my San Marcos transmission repair shop with these signs alone.

Another sign of a problem of your transmission would be when there is a delay when you are shifting it into drive. If it takes your gear a moment to get in place when you shift then that would be a sign of problem. They call that problem a delayed engagement. This could be caused by a worn out transmission or another problem. I have all my clients take it into my San Marcos auto repair shop anytime they get the delayed engagement problem.

And last sign would be when the gears are jerky when shifting it while driving.All the shifitng done when one is driving should not be jerky and should not slip.  This is the sign of a worn transmission if your car jerks everytime it shifts gear. I catch a lot of problems early in my Carlsbad transmission repair shop when this happens.  By catching it early a customer can save a lot of money in repairs.
