Logan Transmission Repair Service
The transmission is the connection between your vehicle’s engine and the wheels. It is the most important part of your vehicle whether you drive:
- A manual transmission
- An automatic transmission
- A semi-automatic transmission
The transmission keeps your engine’s output at the right speed and under the right load conditions. Since engines operate at a high rotational speed, the transmission reduces the engine output speed and transfers the torque to the differential, the driveshaft, and the wheels. As the engine speed changes, the transmission changes the gears which affects the amount of torque it transfers to the wheels.
Transmission fluid does a lot of different things depending on what type of transmission you have. It acts as a coolant and protects your transmission by lubricating your internal gears and keeping them from rusting and corroding. In manual transmissions, the clutch and gear shift provide pressure and force, while in automatic transmissions, the transmission fluid provides the same operational functions of pressure and force.

Top Transmission Services in Logan, UT
A malfunctioning transmission can have adverse effects on your vehicle’s performance. Indicators of an impending need for transmission service comprise grinding gears, difficulty shifting, slipping out of gear, jerking movements, and hesitation. Even when your transmission is set to neutral, excessive noise signals potential transmission issues. In a manual transmission, signs of trouble include a dragging clutch or failure to disengage from the flywheel, resulting in continuous spinning with the engine and producing a grinding noise.
The presence of a burning odor emanating from the air vents suggests burning transmission fluid and an overheating transmission. Factors such as aggressive driving habits, heavy loads, or excessive towing can detrimentally impact transmission lifespan. Given the essential role of transmission fluid in automatic transmissions, aged, contaminated, or neglected fluid can lead to performance issues due to inadequate pressure and lubrication. Regular transmission maintenance as prescribed by your vehicle’s manufacturer can mitigate potential problems. However, if you encounter any of the aforementioned warning signs of transmission issues, do not hesitate to reach out to us for transmission repair services.
