Your transmission system regulates the amount of power going from the engine to the wheels. The transmission is one of the lesser repaired parts of any vehicle but over a long enough use time, it will need to be repaired or replaced. That's where we come in. 

We are experts in all kinds of transmission systems:
  • Automatic transmissions
  • Continuous variable transmissions (CVT)
  • Direct-shift gearboxes (DSG)
  • Manual transmissions
  • Semi-automatic transmissions
  • Tiptronic gearboxes

​​A faulty transmission can cause a lot of power imbalance issues and unresponsiveness while driving, and also increase the wear and tear on your engine. Leave the transmission unrepaired and your vehicle will stop moving entirely.
We offer repairs and fixes to every transmission problem imaginable.
 
Different transmission systems have mostly similar parts which only differ a little from each other. Automatic transmissions, for example, have bands and clutches, planetary gear sets, torque converters, sensors, transmission fluid, and valve bodies.
 
All these parts require constant maintenance and repair in the event of a breakdown.
​Valve Body 
​
The valve body looks like a maze. It pushes transmission fluid to crutches and bands which in turn allow for gear rotations, engagement, and disengagement.
 
The opening and closing of the valves is determined by fluid pressure.
Clutches & Bands

​Clutches and bands make it easier for your engine to shift gears by loosening and tightening as required. They help gears rotate, engage, and disengage.
Pump
​ 
The pump draws transmission fluid into the transmission system and pressurizes it for the torque converter
Torque Converter

​Whereas manual transmissions rely on a clutch to help disconnect the transmission from the engine and therefore bring a vehicle to a complete stop without killing the engine, automatic transmissions use a torque converter.
 
A torque converter allows your vehicle to idle without moving. Otherwise, you would have to shut down the engine every time you come to a stop which wouldn’t be practical with heavy equipment such as excavators. Thus a malfunctioning torque converter can be very disruptive.
Transmission Fluid (ATF) 
​ 
Automatic Transmission Fluid serves a lot of functions in your transmission besides transferring power. It’s a lubricant, a surface cleaner, and a coolant.
 
Properly maintaining it, topping it up, and replacing it when necessary are instrumental to the proper functioning of your vehicle. All of these are services we offer.
Planetary Gear Set
​
The planetary gear set consists of the sun gear in the center surrounded by planetary gears and the ring gear. This is where all gear ratios are determined.
 
The planetary gear links the ring gear to the planetary gears. The motion of the gears is then transmitted to the shaft.
