As you put more miles on your vehicle, your transmission system wears down. Over time, the transmission fluid becomes thinner and contaminated, which can also cause extra wear on the transmission system. Other factors, such as towing, extremely warm temperatures, and stop and go traffic can all cause premature wear on your transmission. Are you concerned that your transmission system needs maintenance? Here’s a couple signs to look out for.
Common signs of transmission wear include:
- Loss of power upon acceleration
- Transmission is unable to go into gear
- Hard or late shifting of gears
- Transmission slipping
- Chatter or grinding noise in the transmission
- Transmission leaking
- Car is unable to move
