Your car’s transmission is a complex ecosystem of sensors and gears that ultimately links the engine and wheels. True to its name, it “transmits” the energy generated by the engine to the car’s tires. The result is a secure, quiet, and more controlled driving experience.
Maintaining your car’s transmission can be likened to exercising. The transmission generates a substantial amount of heat, just as your body does during a great workout. Transmission fluid is the life force that prevents the transmission from overheating. The more it’s used, the quicker the transmission’s performance slows down – similar to how water is essential for sustaining our physical activity. Dehydration never ends well, and neither does having a damaged transmission.
That is why it is of the utmost importance that your transmission is closely examined and well-maintained by specialists at your local transmission shop.
