Transmission Flush Service

Transmission fluid is often referred to as the hardest working fluid in your car. It is responsible for 1) lubricating hundreds of moving parts in your transmission, 2) serving as a coolant to reduce the tremendous temperatures created in normal use, 3) keeping the transmission clean and free of contaminants, and 4) maintaining the hydraulic properties that allow your transmission to shift properly under constantly changing conditions.

Over time your transmission fluid loses its ability to perform. If the fluid is left in beyond its useful life, wear and deterioration of the bearings, clutches, and other internal components will result. Eventually the transmission will fail and require overhaul or replacement. The cost of a transmission rebuild can be from $1500 to $3000, and even higher on some cars.

Lamb's Tire & Automotive Centers’ ASE certified technicians employ the most advanced equipment that allows us to replace every bit of the fluid in the complete transmission. It also flushes out any impurities that could contaminate the new fluid, leaving the transmission with fluid as clean as the day it was new.

A Transmission Flush should be done every 30,000 miles as part of routine maintenance. It is not recommended for all cars, so please ask your Lamb's Tire & Automotive Centers service advisor if it is right for your car.

Scheduled appointments are welcome, but not necessary.
