What’s the Difference Between Transmission Repair and Replacement?

At Matthews Tire, we believe in helping you make informed decisions about your vehicle.

Repair: Fixing specific parts like sensors, seals or gears. For minor issues, repairs are faster and more affordable.

Our ASE-certified technicians will always recommend the best solution for your vehicle, ensuring it aligns with your needs and budget.

Common Transmission Problems

Here are a few common issues that can lead to transmission problems:

Low fluid levels: Leads to overheating or gear problems. Refill or flush transmission fluid.
Worn-out gears: Causes grinding or difficulty shifting. Replace damaged gears.
Faulty sensors: Affects automatic transmissions. Recalibrate or replace sensors.
Clutch trouble: Common in manual transmissions. Adjust or replace the clutch.

Our skilled technicians use advanced tools to identify the issue and make precise repairs.

How Often Should You Change Transmission Fluid?

Most manufacturers recommend changing transmission fluid every 30,000 to 60,000 miles. For some vehicles, synthetic fluids allow for even longer intervals. Transmission fluid is like your transmission’s lifeblood: It keeps parts lubricated and prevents overheating.

Whether you’re navigating the busy streets near Lambeau Field or heading up north on Highway 41, keeping your fluid fresh ensures smooth performance.

Frequently Asked Transmission Repair Questions

What is the most common cause of transmission failure?

Low or contaminated fluid or inadequate lubrication and cooling.
Failing to perform regular fluid changes and inspections.

How long do transmissions last?

Can a damaged transmission be repaired?

Yes, many issues can be repaired and prevented from escalating into major failures, especially when identified early.

Is it cheaper to repair or replace a transmission?

The cost-effectiveness of repairing versus replacing a transmission depends on the extent of the damage:

Minor Issues: Small problems can often be resolved with repairs, which are generally less expensive.
Major Damage: Severe issues may necessitate a complete replacement, which can be more costly.

Our ASE-certified technicians can help recommend the best solution for your vehicle, ensuring it aligns with your needs and budget.

How long will a repaired transmission last?

Matthews Tire & Auto did an excellent job finding the right tires for my SUV. I got an appointment in just a couple of days after I called. They also did an oil change. The shuttle service was excellent as well. I recommend Matthews to everyone!

Screw in a tire ... not good. Unrepairable. Easy to get the replacement ordered on Friday afternoon and got it installed first thing on Monday. 25 years of happy service. Just another reason why they get my business.
