Transmission Repair, Fluid Flush & Replacement
Automatic, manual, and CVT transmission maintenance, fluid exchanges, shift solenoid diagnostics, and complete assembly replacements.
Service Overview
The transmission is one of the most sophisticated and expensive mechanical systems on modern vehicles. Rinaldi Auto Service handles regular preventive fluid flushes, clutch adjustments, shift diagnostics, and NAPA warranty-backed transmission replacements.
What Our Service Includes
Transmission Fluid Exchange & Filter Service
Overheated, burnt transmission fluid leads to clutch plate slip and valve body sticking. We flush dirty fluid and clean transmission pans and magnets.
Computer Shift Solenoid & Sensor Diagnostics
Many erratic shifts or gear-hunting issues are caused by faulty speed sensors or electronic solenoids rather than internal mechanical failure.
Complete Transmission Replacement
When mechanical rebuild or replacement is required, we source remanufactured transmissions carrying up to 3-year / 100,000-mile nationwide warranties.
Common Warning Signs & Symptoms
If you notice any of the following, schedule an inspection promptly:
- Delayed or harsh gear engagement into Drive or Reverse
- Engine revs high without vehicle accelerating accordingly (slipping)
- Red or dark brown fluid puddle under the center of the car
- Burning odor or 'Check Engine' transmission trouble codes (P0700 series)
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should transmission fluid be changed?
Most manufacturers recommend fluid exchange every 30,000 to 60,000 miles. CVT transmissions are especially sensitive and require strict fluid adherence.
