Transmission Repair in Germantown, Maryland
Precision Auto—We Ensure Smooth Shifts
Overview of Automotive Transmissions
In today’s vehicles, there are three main types of transmission offered: automatic, manual (or stick-shift), and continuously variable transmission (CVT). The main goal of a transmission is to channel the power generated by the engine to the wheels, and each of the three main types does it a bit differently. An automatic transmission selects the gear for you concerning the speed and road condition (all you have to do is shift into drive or reverse), while a manual transmission requires the driver’s input to change gears. A CVT is similar to an automatic in that it takes care of gear selection for you, but it utilizes a belt-and-pulley system in place of individual gears. Whether your transmission is acting up or you’d like the peace of mind knowing it’s in good shape, Precision Auto in Germantown, Maryland, has you covered with reliable transmission repair and maintenance services! We are thoroughly trained and have experience working with all transmission types and makes and models. Consult our team of transmission repair experts today.

Signs of Transmission Problems
Your transmission is built to last for the long haul, but daily use still exacts a toll. Luckily, your transmission has certain ways of telling you something is wrong and may warrant a visit to our shop for transmission repair service. For example, if your transmission fault indicator lights up, we encourage you to visit us at your earliest convenience. Likewise, don’t ignore pools of liquid under your vehicle; if that liquid is red, you have a transmission fluid leak. If you notice that your vehicle is laboring to accelerate or maintain speed, the culprit may be the transmission. Likewise, shifting should be smooth with either an automatic or manual transmission. If it isn’t, or if you notice hesitant shifts, that’s a problem. Additional symptoms to keep a lookout for include a burning smell, grinding, or a clunking sound. Luckily, you can take the guesswork out of the equation by scheduling an appointment with our ASE-Certified transmission repair technicians at the first sign of trouble.
