Manual Transmission Service

Manual transmission fluid (lube) provides lubrication to gears, bearings, shafts, and other internal components.  Heat, pressure and friction can slowly breakdown the additives in the manual transmission fluid.  In addition, small particles of metal may come off the gears as they wear and these metal particles can mix with the fluid.  Fluids can also become contaminated with water.

This service includes:

  • draining or evacuating the old manual transmission fluid
  • filling the manual transmission fluid with the manufacturer’s recommended type and quantity of new fluid

The net result of all these services is to provide better lubrication, improve the holding ability of the friction components, and reduce heat. This means your transmission works better, longer.  Therefore you are less likely to face a major transmission repair.
