Transmission Repair — Quima’s Auto Restoration & Repair

Transmission issues are among the most complex and costly problems a vehicle can face.

Whether you’re experiencing slipping gears, delayed engagement, strange noises, or a dashboard transmission warning, we deliver thorough diagnostics and long-lasting repairs.

Why Transmission Repair Matters

The transmission translates engine power into motion. If transmission systems fail, your vehicle can become unsafe or inoperable. Transmission problems often lead to higher fuel consumption, reduced drivability, and potential damage to other drivetrain components. Timely transmission repair restores safe operation and prevents the escalation of damage and repair costs.

  • Slipping gears or delayed engagement
  • Harsh shifting or grinding
  • Transmission fluid leaks and burnt fluid
  • Overheating transmission or torque converter issues
  • Transmission warning lights and error codes

FAQs — Transmission Repair

  • What does a slipping transmission feel like?

    Slipping feels like the engine revs increase without proportional acceleration, or the vehicle shifts unexpectedly between gears. It often indicates worn clutches or low/contaminated fluid.

  • How long does a transmission rebuild take?

    Depending on parts availability and the scope of repairs, a rebuild may take several days to a week. We provide estimated timelines and regular updates.

  • Can I drive with a leaking transmission?

    Driving with a leak risks severe damage. A significant leak can cause low fluid levels, which may lead to overheating and internal damage. Have it inspected promptly.

  • Is it better to replace or rebuild a transmission?

    It depends on the extent of damage, vehicle value, and cost. We provide a clear recommendation after diagnostics with cost comparisons for rebuild vs replacement.
