Common Myths About Transmissions Debunked

    A car’s transmission is probably the most important part of the entire vehicle. If your transmission is out of commission, you certainly won’t be going far. The truth is that most people don’t really understand how their car transmission actually works. Even gaining a basic understanding of car transmissions can help you recognize problems and avoid expensive mistakes. A lack of basic knowledge can lead to the spread of myths and misinformation. That’s why we are going to use this article as an opportunity to debunk the most common myths about transmissions. It’s always a good idea to perform regular maintenance on your transmission. Reach out to Remac Transmission today to have a professional take a look at yours.

    1. All Transmission Fluids Are the Same

    One of the common myths about transmissions that can end up costing your money is that all transmission fluid is the same. The truth is that car manufacturers create special transmission fluid blends that are designed specifically for their vehicles. You should always aim to use the suggested fluid for your vehicle. There isn’t just one universal transmission fluid that works for every single type of vehicle.

    2. Transmission Flushes Cleans the Transmission Filter

    For some reason, many car owners believe that if they flush their transmission they are cleaning their transmission filter in the process. This is simply not the case, as you will need to replace your transmission filter after a certain period of time. Debris that clog up your filter cannot come out during a transmission flush, so make sure you have a professional take a look at your filter during your regular transmission maintenance.

    3. If Your Transmission Isn’t Serviced Before 100,000 miles, it’s Too Late

    This myth doesn’t make any sense at all. People think that if they haven’t serviced their transmission before their car reaches 100,000 miles, it’s simply too late and transmission failure is inevitable. It’s never too late to service your transmission, and a visit to the professionals at Remac Transmission can help you extend the life of your transmission and improve the way that your car drives. If you wait until after 100,000 miles, it’s a good idea to get it service sooner rather than later to avoid potentially costly issues.

    4. Shops That Handle Transmission Fluid Flushes Can Handle All Transmission Issues

    Another common myth about transmissions is that if a shop can handle a transmission fluid flush, they can easily handle any other transmission related service you need. Car transmissions are a very complex and intricate part of a car. You should always opt for a professional to help out with your transmission. A service provider that specializes in transmissions like Remac Transmission is the way to go when it comes to servicing your transmission.

    We hope this article has helped you discover the truth about some of the most common myths about car transmissions. Remember that if you are looking for expert help with your car transmission or would just like regular transmission maintenance, reach out to Remac Transmission today.
