How we diagnose your transmission

When you bring your vehicle into our transmission repair shop in Stuart for the diagnostics procedure, we are careful to protect your car by placing protective coverings on any areas that we will be touching. We know you take care of your car and respect that and want to make sure it stays clean.

The first step is to take your car or truck for a test drive to evaluate how it’s functioning and listen for any noises or incorrect functions in the transmission or the way the car operates. Then we run a drive line diagnostics test with advanced computer software that tell us the malfunction codes in the automobile's transmission control unit. These codes give our ASE certified technicians a good idea what is wrong with your car’s transmission and how to proceed with repairs.

Once you automobile is hoisted onto our lift our CST ASE certified technicians can diagnose visual problems with the components on the transmission such as the transfer casing, differentials, drive shaft and electrical connections. We also inspect other issues that are discovered for proper performance beyond the transmission.

After we have completely diagnosed the problems with your transmission, we will call you and discuss a repair plan and the cost associated with getting your vehicle back on the road so that you will have no further issues without any mechanical concerns. Once we have your approval we will move on from the diagnostics stage and move on to repairing your transmission.
