The condition of your transmission fluid can tell you a lot about the condition of the transmission itself. At Kermit’s Certified Transmission & Auto in Kingman, AZ, we want to help you be aware of what to look for and what we look for when servicing your transmission.
Sluggish. Squealing. Unreliable. Vibrating. If any of these descriptors fit your vehicle’s recent behavior, it just might be trying to tell you something – like it’s time for a tune-up.
Today’s vehicles differ significantly from their decades-old brethren that required a tune-up every 10,000 or 20,000 miles. With newer vehicles, it’s increasingly common for manufacturer-recommended service intervals to stretch to 100,000 miles before certain maintenance items, such as replacing the spark plugs, should be completed.
