Whether you drive an automatic or a manual, the transmission is a vital component of your Chevy. Your transmission transfers power from the engine to the wheels, so it’s best to keep it in good condition. When your Chevrolet car, truck, or SUV needs maintenance, head to Libertyville Chevrolet, serving Waukegan and North Chicago. Our technicians work with Chevy models every day, and their expertise is supplemented by their continual training and GM certification. We proudly serve Grayslake, Mundelein, and beyond with transmission services like those you’ll find here.
Both automatic and manual transmissions need fluid to keep the moving parts in the transmission lubricated. In particular, automatic transmissions require specially formulated transmission fluid. As time goes by, the transmission fluid will begin to degrade and become contaminated. Contamination is the bigger concern for manual transmissions, while degradation often affects automatics. Regardless of which one you drive, our technicians will be glad to drain the old fluid and replace it with new GM-approved transmission fluid to ensure continued quality.
Transmissions are long-lasting components. It’s entirely possible that your transmission may last as long as the rest of your Chevy does. However, transmissions will sometimes need to be replaced. While repair is sometimes possible, a worn transmission is often best removed and replaced with a new one.
Of course, inspecting the transmission is the first thing our technicians will do if you report transmission problems. Symptoms of a bad transmission include:
Of course, you don’t have to wait for symptoms to arise. If you have regular transmission inspections, we may be able to catch problems before they cause excessive damage. If anything concerning is found during the inspection, our technicians will give expert advice and suggest the best course of action for you and your Chevy.
