Gears slipping? Get it checked early.

Your transmission works hard and is one of the more expensive parts of the car to replace. Many problems start small: old fluid, a leak, or a fault code from a sensor or solenoid.

Kartech can diagnose the symptoms, service the fluid to your manufacturer's schedule, and advise on the right repair.

  • Slipping, flaring revs or harsh, jerky shifts

Transmission questions

Does my automatic transmission need a fluid service?

Many do, at intervals set by the manufacturer. Some are labelled as lifetime fluid, but heavy use can change that. Your logbook is the starting point.

Is it safe to drive with the transmission slipping?

It's best not to. Driving on a slipping transmission can turn a repairable fault into a much bigger one. Call 0422 549 846 for advice.
