Automatic Gearbox Servicing – Chester-le-Street

Automatic gearboxes are more common than ever, and they’re also more sophisticated. Whether your vehicle has a traditional torque converter automatic, a dual-clutch transmission, or a CVT, the gearbox needs periodic attention to stay in good working order. It’s one of the more commonly overlooked service items, and neglecting it can lead to expensive consequences.

Why It Matters

Automatic transmission fluid degrades over time and so it loses its lubricating and cooling properties, and contaminants build up within the system. Left too long, this puts strain on internal components, leads to rough or delayed gear changes, and in more serious cases, can cause gearbox failure. A gearbox service is considerably cheaper than a gearbox replacement.

What’s Included:

• Drain and replacement of automatic transmission fluid
• Filter replacement where applicable
• Inspection of the gearbox for leaks, wear, or fault codes
• Road test to assess shift quality and performance

Symptoms to Watch For:

• Hesitation or delay when selecting drive or reverse
• Harsh, jerky, or slipping gear changes
• Unusual noises from the gearbox
• Warning lights or transmission fault codes
