What are the first signs a transmission is slipping?

Rising engine speed without matching acceleration, a delay when you drop it into gear, or a shudder under light throttle. We test for those before anyone talks about replacing the unit.

Everyone says I need a new transmission. Do I?

Maybe, but we test before we replace. A large share of transmission complaints trace to a solenoid, sensor, wiring, or fluid condition. We confirm the real cause before you spend on a full unit.
