How Often Should I Get My Transmission Fluid Flushed?

Why Does My Transmission Need a Fluid Flush?
Your transmission helps deliver power from your engine to the vehicle’s wheels. In order to function properly, it requires fluid to keep all moving parts adequately lubricated. When this fluid is compromised your transmission will not function at full capacity. To prevent less than stellar vehicle performance, draining old fluid and adding new fluid is a great step in your vehicle’s care.
While we recommend fluid flushes around every 48,000 to 97,000 kilometers, this interval can change depending on use. We are pleased to provide Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram routine service intervals so be sure to check that out when determining when it is right for your vehicle.
Signs You Need a Transmission Fluid Flush
While transmission fluid circulates throughout the system, it is likely to pick up debris. Contaminations in the fluid will hinder performance, causing your vehicle to give you signs of improper function. Signs of needing a transmission fluid flush include: irregular noises, issues staying in the correct gear, sudden surges, and unresponsiveness when switching gears.Â
