Transmission Repair: Get into Gear for the New Year!

Well, it's the end of the holiday season and the time to make a few resolutions for the coming year. As in years past, this New Year will bring us several challenges as the economy continues to fight stubborn financial problems. If you are like many of us, budgets are tight and, as a result, you may need to hold onto your current vehicle a little longer than you had hoped. Therefore, it's important to take care of even the small details of vehicle maintenance, including a transmission repair and transmission flush.

For those among us who are not mechanics, a transmission repair can be a traumatic event. The most frightening aspect is the looming financial outlay for this kind of vehicle service. This can be especially true if you have delayed in having your vehicle checked out by a professional mechanic. It can even be dangerous if your transmission fails.

So that you have the necessary information you need to keep your car or truck in peak performance throughout 2013, we've listed two important resolutions below:

• Resolution #1 - Schedule two checkups this year with a transmission repair technician. Regardless of how well you think you know your vehicle, a well-trained, trustworthy mechanic can diagnose issues before they happen. Most transmissions should be checked and serviced twice a year, which includes a transmission flush. To take the time to have a check up with a good mechanic twice a year for preventative maintenance is cheap insurance.

• Resolution #2 - Keep up with fluid and filter changes. Checking on your vehicle's fluids and filters is critical for its lasting performance. While some fluids like brake fluid, clutch fluid and coolant don't demand the attention as often as an oil change or a transmission flush, they're just as important. "X" out one day a month on your calendar to check the level of your vehicle's fluids. A typical transmission repair consists of changing the filter and filling up the level of transmission fluid. It's quick, easy and can save you some serious transmission repair dollars down the line.

Remember: As a major buying incentive for a potential buyer, keep all of your records so that you can provide them with documentation of the service history.

So, if your car or truck is 'out of gear,' take it to a transmission repair center and leave it in the trained and skilled hands of a trusted professional.
