Clearfield Transmission Repair Service
The transmission connects your vehicle’s engine to the wheels. It is a very important part of any vehicle, whether you have a
- manual transmission
- automatic transmission
- or semi-automatic transmission
The transmission changes the engine’s speed and load for driving. Engines run at high speeds, so the transmission slows this down. It moves the power from the engine to other parts like the drive shaft and wheels. As the engine speeds up or slows down, the transmission shifts gears. This affects how much power goes to the wheels.
The transmission fluid does different jobs based on your type of transmission. It cools the transmission and protects it by lubricating the inside gears. This keeps them from rusting or wearing out. In a manual transmission, the clutch and gear shift provide pressure. In an automatic transmission, the fluid does this job instead of a clutch.

Clearfield, UT Transmission Services
A malfunctioning transmission can cause problems with your vehicle’s performance. Signs that your transmission may need service soon include grinding gears, trouble shifting gears, slipping out of gear, jerky movements, and hesitation. Even when your car is in neutral, unusual noises could mean issues with the transmission. In a manual transmission, problems include a clutch that drags or doesn’t fully disengage from the flywheel, resulting in the engine constantly spinning and an annoying grinding sound.
Smelling something burning coming from the vents means the transmission fluid is overheating or on fire. Driving aggressively, hauling heavy loads, or towing too much can wear out your transmission faster over time. Since automatic transmissions rely on fluid for pressure and lubrication, old, dirty, or neglected fluid can cause the transmission to not work right. Following your owner’s manual for maintenance like fluid changes can prevent issues. But if you notice any of the warning signs listed above, don’t wait to contact us about transmission repairs.
