Shift Right Transmission & Auto Service
  • How do I know if my transmission needs to be rebuilt?

    Warning signs include gears that slip, shifts that occur late, noises that sound like grinding, leaks of transmission fluid, or an illuminated transmission warning light. A professional diagnostic inspection will determine if a rebuild is the most appropriate solution for your vehicle.
  • What is included in a transmission rebuild?

    A transmission rebuild includes complete disassembly of the transmission unit, thorough inspection of every component, replacement of parts that show wear or damage, and careful reassembly to return the transmission to proper working condition and reliability.
  • How long does a transmission rebuild take?

    The typical timeframe for completing a transmission rebuild is several days, though this varies based on your vehicle's make and model, the availability of required parts, and how much internal damage exists.
  • Is rebuilding a transmission better than replacing it?

    Rebuilding often proves to be a more economical option than full replacement, as it allows your original transmission to be restored to full function by replacing only those components that show wear or damage.
