Where can I get my car transmission service?
You can make a transmission service for your vehicle at your local Bosch Auto Service.
What causes a transmission to slip/why won’t my car shift gears properly when running?
There are plenty of elements in place to ensure your transmission runs smoothly for a long time. However, as your transmission ages, its gears become worn. As gears degrade, they can't engage properly and may slip out of sync more frequently.
What’s the difference between automatic and manual transmission?
In a manual transmission system, the driver is required to operate the clutch and tell the car which gear to shift to. Automatic transmission systems use sensors to automatically operate the clutch and put the car in the right gear so drivers can focus more on the road and traffic conditions.
When should I have my transmission checked?
If you notice any issues when changing gears, you should get your transmission serviced as soon as possible. At Bosch Auto Service, we include a multi-point inspection as part of every appointment, so we can check for any issues with your transmission before they become a problem.
