Automatic & Manual Gearbox Maintenance
Transmission systems are complex, and issues can stem from worn clutches, failing solenoids, low fluid, damaged gears or even software faults in modern vehicles. We start with thorough diagnostics to pinpoint the exact issue, whether it’s a warning light on the dash or strange behaviour behind the wheel.
From fluid changes and filter replacements to full gearbox rebuilds, every job is tailored to your vehicle’s needs and driving habits. We also monitor common Territory-specific wear points caused by heat, towing or off-road use.
Clear communication and solid workmanship mean you’ll know exactly what’s going on and why. Smooth shifts aren’t just about comfort—they’re about safety, reliability and getting more out of your car.
What are the signs of a failing transmission?
Common signs include delayed gear shifts, slipping between gears, rough or jerky transitions, strange noises like whining or grinding, and fluid leaks. Warning lights may also appear on the dashboard. Ignoring these symptoms can lead to more severe damage, so early diagnosis and servicing are strongly recommended.
How often should transmission fluid be changed?
Transmission fluid should generally be changed every 50,000 to 100,000 kilometres, depending on the vehicle and driving conditions. Heavy towing, frequent stop-start driving or high heat can shorten that interval. Always check the owner’s manual for your specific make and model’s recommendations and follow up with regular inspections.
Can low transmission fluid cause shifting problems?
Yes, low or dirty transmission fluid can lead to slipping, delayed engagement, overheating and rough gear changes. The fluid lubricates and cools internal components, so when levels drop or quality degrades, performance suffers. Topping up might help short-term, but a proper check is needed to find the cause.
