How a Transmission Inspection works with My Auto Shop:

First our qualified mechanics will check the fluid levels of the clutch or transmission to ensure there is no leak and that the system is topped up. They will then complete a diagnostic scan.

They will then quote up any repairs or replacement parts if required.

When your hearing a whining sound when your car is in gear its often as a result of a:

  • Low Transmission Fluid
  • Normal Operation - this sound is not uncommon and can be a result of normal wear and tear
  • Worn Clutch and/or Flywheel
  • Bad Throw Out Bearing
  • Bad Input Shaft Bearing
  • Bad Wheel Bearing

Popular services linked to a Transmission Inspection:

Automatic Selector Cable Replacement

In a manual transmission, the gear lever is what selects and changes the gear you’re in. In an automatic transmission, it’s the selector cable. Also known as an automatic selector cable, the automatic transmission still handles changing gears as you drive but the selector cable is what determines whether you’re in park, reverse, neutral or drive.

Driveshaft Seal Replacement

A rubber or metal seal that prevents fluids from escaping from the transmission, differential, or transfer case.

Manual Selector Cable Replacement

These transmit the movement of the gear stick to the manual transmission/ gearbox, ensuring you are in the gear you've selected.

Transmission Fluid Replacement

Transmission fluid ensures the internal parts of your transmission avoid excess wear and tear and helps to ensure they do not overheat. Generally vehicles require their transmission fluid to be replaced about every 36 months of 30,000kms.
