Transmission Maintenance
Your vehicle's transmission relies on clean, correctly specified fluid to operate smoothly and protect its internal components. PSM Workshop provides professional transmission servicing based on your vehicle's manufacturer requirements and transmission condition.
Why it matters
Transmission fluid lubricates internal components, helps control operating temperature and provides the hydraulic pressure required for smooth gear changes. Over time, the fluid can deteriorate and become contaminated with normal wear material.
Regular transmission servicing can help maintain smoother operation, reduce unnecessary wear and identify leaks or other problems before they become more serious.
Transmission service requirements vary between vehicles. We inspect the transmission and confirm the correct fluid specification and servicing procedure before beginning work.
How it works
This short Vehicle Visuals animation explains the pan, gasket and transmission filter servicing process.
Scope
The exact procedure depends on the transmission design. Some vehicles use sealed units, internal filters or manufacturer-specific filling and level-checking procedures.
Our approach
Where the transmission design allows it, the pan is removed to access the filter or strainer. The pan is cleaned, the filter and gasket are replaced where required and the transmission is refilled using the correct fluid and level-setting procedure.
Some vehicles may be suitable for a more extensive fluid exchange procedure. This is assessed individually because the correct method depends on the transmission type, service history, condition and manufacturer guidance.
A complete fluid exchange is not automatically suitable for every transmission. PSM Workshop will recommend the appropriate method after assessing the vehicle.
Symptoms
These symptoms do not always mean the transmission requires replacement. A proper inspection is required to identify the cause.
