Automatic Gearbox Servicing

With the automatic gearbox being one of the most expensive vehicle components to replace, it’s definitely worth keeping on top of the condition of the transmission fluid in the gearbox.

Manufacturers vary hugely in how often they recommend changing the gearbox fluid; at Eldon Street Garage we check the condition of the fluid during your car’s regular service and can advise you then on the best way to proceed at that time.

Having good-condition transmission fluid in your automatic gearbox is vital as its job is to prevent friction between the many metal parts of the gearbox and if the fluid is left so long that it becomes contaminated and viscous, it will be unable to lubricate the parts properly and can lead to wear and damage.

At Eldon Street Garage we flush out 100% of the old transmission fluid which also removes all the particles and deposits which cause its deterioration. We then check and clean the transmission pan, change the filter and fill up with new transmission fluid. This service at our workshop in Preston, will prolong the lifespan and maintain the performance of your automatic gearbox.

As a prominent independent garage in Preston, it’s no wonder that Eldon Street Garage is affiliated with a number of reputable motor industry organisations which improve the services customers receive.
