    I booked the vehicle in for a noise I thought was coming from the gearbox. Graham inspected the vehicle and found it was not a gearbox issue. Graham pointed out other possible faults that could result in the problem i was experiencing. I felt reassured and can highly recommend this repairer who didn't charge me for the diagnosis. Thanks to Cameron and the team at Automatic Transmission R Us a job well done.

    Trailblazer/ Colorado TC shudder
Had to fight with Holden for many years for a repair for the TC shudder, offered a band aid fix from Holden that failed on two previous occasions.
The team at Transmissions R us were completely honest, as a mechanic in a previous life the explanation of the common problem made sense. (Phoenix Holden constantly denied this issue)
Had the  Transmission  repaired and drove like new, I literally drove the vehicle across Australia towing a boat. After 10 months noticed some slight leaking of ATF on the bell housing. The team repaired the leak that included removal of the Transmission without question.Highly recommend this business.

    Took my car in recently on short notice when I was informed of a auto trans issue from my normal mechanic. I was met with exceptional customer service and expertise which lead to a quick diagnosis to confirm my true issue which was a crappy ac compressor making the noise.

Will definitely be returning to these guys in the future for any auto trans work.

FAQs

What is the difference between automatic and manual transmission?

The key difference between these two power steering systems is that an auto transmission does not feature a gear stick or clutch pedal. An auto transmission will do all the grunt work for you, automatically changing gears fluidly as you push on the gas pedal.

However, a manual transmission, or stick-shift, will allow you to physically shift your vehicle into different gears using the gearbox.

What is an automatic transmission?

An automatic transmission is a type of automotive transmission that, as the name suggests, has an electronically controlled mechanism that shifts gears for you. These transmissions are commonly preferred by those who drive in high traffic areas, as the engine produces smoother accelerating and braking.

Automatic transmissions are complex systems that play a crucial role in the smooth operation of a vehicle. They use a combination of sensors, hydraulic pumps, and gear sets to automatically adjust gear ratios, allowing the driver to focus on steering and accelerating. Unlike manual transmissions, which require the driver to manually shift gears using a clutch pedal and gear stick, automatic transmissions use a torque converter to transfer power from the engine to the transmission. This allows for smoother acceleration and braking, making automatic transmissions a popular choice for drivers who frequently drive in heavy traffic or hilly terrain.

What are some common automatic transmission issues?

Regular auto transmission servicing will help guard your vehicle against expensive breakdowns and repairs. If you leave your automatic unchecked for too long, it can lead to costly transmission problems which can affect the condition of your vehicle, including:

Wear and tear of bands in changing gears can result in band breakage and loss of gears.
Transmission oil leaks that can result in your transmission burning out and electrical component failure.
Oil filter blockage which will lead to the auto transmission being starved of oil.
Radiator malfunctions such as water leaks and poor cooling of the transmission can lead to poor performance and burning out.
Contamination of solenoids can cause poor flow of oil through the transmission.
