Transmission fluid is often referred to as the hardest working fluid in your car.  It is responsible for the following:

1. Lubricating hundreds of moving parts in your transmission.
2. Serving as a coolant to dreduce the tremendous temperatures created in normal use.
3. Keeping the transmission clean and free of contaminants.
4. Maintaining the hydraulic properties that allow your transmission to shift properly under constantly changing conditions.

Over time, your transmissio fluid loses its abilit to perform.  If the fluid is left in beyound its useful lifek wear and deterioration of the bearings, clutches, and other internal components will result.  Eventually, the transmission will fail and reqire overhaul or replacement.  The cost of an average transmission rebuild can be from $1,500 to $3,000; even higher on other cars.

AA Auto Care & Tire technicians employ the most advanced equipment that allows us to replace the fluid in the complete transmission.  This process removes impurities that could contaminate the new fluid, leaving the transmssion with fluid as clean as the day it was new.

A Transmission Flush should be done every 30,000 miles as a part of routine maintenance.  It is not recommeneded for all cars, so please ask your AA Auto Care & Tire service adviser if it is right for your car.
