The transmission sends engine power as variable torque to the drive wheels, allowing you to travel at the desired speed. Transmissions have a complex internal gear arrangement necessary for smooth, comfortable driving. Toyota recommends transmission fluid exchange service every 30k to 60k miles, as-needed component repairs are more likely at higher miles, and possible replacement to extend vehicle life. Our certified technicians understand the Toyota transmission professionally through significant factory training and experience.

Inspections are basic visual checks to detect obvious problems with a cooler line, gasket, housing, or fluid leak. We perform basic visual transmission checks with fluid exchanges and multi-point vehicle inspections. We reserve diagnosis service for transmissions with performance trouble needing problem identification and repair recommendation.
Manual and automatic transmissions divert torque differently, but all transmissions require internal component lubrication and regular fluid exchanges. Toyota recommends fluid exchanges at specific intervals depending on transmission type and driving conditions. Hard-working Toyota trucks often need more frequent fluid exchanges due to harsh conditions like towing heavy loads.
Transmissions have several essential components susceptible to wear and tear. Transmissions with higher miles might need component repairs for a cooler line, gasket, clutch, torque converter, and more.
Transmissions with catastrophic damage or significant wear and tear might require replacement service to extend vehicle life. Transmission replacement is a complicated service that requires more time than other repairs. We expedite transmission replacement by committing multiple certified technicians to get you back on the road as quickly as possible.
