Transmission Diagnostics & Computerized Testing
Many modern transmission issues are electronically controlled. Hard shifting, delayed engagement, warning lights, torque converter shudder and inconsistent shifting can often involve sensors, solenoids, valve body issues or internal wear.
Our transmission diagnostic process helps identify the root cause of transmission problems before recommending repairs. This allows drivers to better understand what is happening with their vehicle and avoid unnecessary repairs whenever possible.
We regularly diagnose and repair common issues involving:
- GM 6L45, 6L80 and 8L90 transmissions
- Ford 6R80 and 10R80 transmissions
- Dodge and Ram transmission systems
- Import CVT transmission systems
- Torque converter shudder
- Towing-related transmission overheating
- Slipping and delayed shifting
- Driveline vibration and noise
Diesel Truck & Towing Transmission Specialists
Heavy-duty towing and diesel truck applications place significant stress on transmission systems. Action Transmission services diesel pickup trucks and towing vehicles used for work, hauling, commercial driving and recreational towing.
Our team understands the additional heat, load and driveline stress associated with towing applications and can recommend practical repair and service solutions for diesel truck owners across Southwestern Ontario.
Common Signs of Transmission Problems
Transmission issues often begin with small symptoms that become more serious over time. Addressing problems early can help prevent more extensive damage and costly repairs.
- Hard shifting or slipping gears
- Delayed engagement into drive or reverse
- Transmission fluid leaks
- Grinding, whining or clunking noises
- Burning smells from the transmission
- Torque converter shudder
- Check engine or transmission warning lights
