Slipping, hard or delayed shifts, a burnt smell, or a check-engine light tied to the transmission are all signs you shouldn't ignore. We diagnose automatic and manual transmission problems accurately and tell you honestly whether you're looking at a simple service, a repair, or a bigger job — before you spend a dime.

Most transmissions have a manufacturer-recommended fluid service interval that quietly gets skipped for years. Old, broken-down fluid is the number-one killer of transmissions. A proper fluid and filter service at the right interval is cheap insurance on a very expensive part.

We've kept Philadelphia's cars shifting smoothly for three generations. Bring us the symptom and we'll give you a straight answer and a fair price — backed by our nationwide Auto Value warranty.

Transmission Service — common questions

How often should transmission fluid be changed?

It varies widely by vehicle — some specify 30,000 miles, others longer. We'll check your manufacturer's interval and your fluid's actual condition and give you a straight recommendation.

My transmission slips sometimes — is that urgent?

Yes. Slipping is an early warning. Getting it diagnosed quickly is often the difference between an affordable repair and a full replacement.
