Transmission Replacement

Signs You Need Honda Transmission Repair Service
Only an experienced Honda mechanic can let you know for sure what particular issues your transmission may be facing. However, there are certain signs to be aware that you should take your car in for service. The exact signs of a malfunctioning or failing transmission can vary depending on the particular situation, but if you notice any of the following, don’t wait to schedule a service appointment with a certified Honda mechanic:

• Burning smells
• Gear slipping or unexpected gear changing
• Failure to switch gears when needed
• Leaking fluid (will be noticeable underneath the vehicle)
• Buzzing, humming, or clicking noises
• The check engine light is on (can indicate many different mechanical issues, including transmission-related)

How Long Does a Transmission Replacement Take?

Again, numerous transmission issues are fixable without requiring a replacement. In other cases, the transmission may be able to be rebuilt instead of totally replaced. But in the cases where replacement is deemed necessary, it may be of some comfort to know that a typical replacement takes less than a day. There may be some additional time depending on how long it takes to get the new transmission in (if not already on premise), but the actual work involved should be no more than several hours. Once the mechanic tests everything out and ensures your vehicle is back up running safely and efficiently, you’ll be back out on the road.

Never Neglect Transmission Replacement

You’ve probably heard of people deciding to just invest in a new vehicle instead of choosing the full transmission replacement. This can indeed be the right move for some, especially in cases where the vehicle is already quite old and / or has other issues that need attention. That said, many others feel that they’ve already invested a lot in their car and feel that the cost of a new car will throw all of that away. Others would simply like to keep driving their vehicle for years longer, and a transmission replacement can be the solution.
