YOUR TRANSMISSION SHOULDN'T BE THE REASON YOUR FRIDAY GOES SIDEWAYS!

You know that little clunk... that weird whine... or the moment your RPMs shoot up but your car doesn't seem to go anywhere?

Yeah... your transmission might be trying to tell you something.

Don't wait until " something feels wrong" turns into "I'm stranded"

At Red's Transmission, were here to help keep your vehicle shifting the way it should. Whether it's a strange noise, slipping, hard shifting, or you simply just want to know what's going on- we'll help you get to the bottom of it.

Your Transmission is trying to tell you something....

"I'm slipping" - RPMs climb but your car isn't going anywhere like it should.
"I'm shifting hard!" - That THUNK when you change gears isn't your car saying hello.
"I'm leaking" - That mysterious red/ brown puddle under your vehicle? Yeah... you might need to call us
"I'm making noises!" - Whining, grinding, humming, or clunking can all be warning signs.

What's the WEIRDEST thing your vehicle has ever done that you ignored way longer than you should have? Tell us in the comments- No judgement, trust me we've heard worse.

If your transmission is giving you attitude, bring it to Red's Transmission.

How's your transmission behaving?

Shifting smooth?
A little jerky?
Slipping?
Making a noise that definitely wasn't there last week?

Don't let a small transmission issue turn into a "well... there goes my paycheck" kind of Monday."

If your vehicle isn't shifting the way it should, let's get it checked out before the problem gets bigger.

Your transmission is trying to tell you something...

If your vehicle is:
-shifting harder than your Monday morning
-hesitating before it goes into gear
-slipping between gears
-leaving mysterious red/brown puddles behind
-making noises you've never heard before
... don't wait until it decides to take a vacation

Bring it to Red's Transmission and let us figure out what's going on before a small problem turns into a BIG repair.

Transmission Problem? We speak fluent transmission.

A new week means new miles. Before you hit the road ask yourself:

- is your vehicle shifting smoothly?
-have you noticed and leaks?
-any strange noises you've been putting off?

Taking care of small transmission issues today can help prevent bigger repairs tomorrow.

Start your week with confidence- if something doesn't feel right, let the experts at Red's Transmissions take a look, were here to keep you rolling!

What's on your schedule this week- a road trip, work commute, a trip to Red's? let us know in the comments.

What's the longest you've owned a vehicle?!

Some vehicles make it to 100,000 miles... Some hit 200,000.... Then every once in awhile there's that one ride that just keeps on going..

Tell us in the comments: How many miles are on your vehicle?

Transmission Myth or Fact?

"If your transmission starts slipping, adding more transmission fluid will always fix it."

comment myth or fact before you read the answer!!

While low transmission fluid can cause shifting problems, slipping can also be a sign of worn internal components, a failing torque converter, electrical issues, or other problems. Simply topping off the fluid isn't always the solution- and sometimes it can delay finding the real issue.
The sooner you have it checked, the better your chances of avoiding major repair.
