Transmission Warning Signs Petaluma Drivers Should Watch For
Early detection prevents costly damage. If you notice any of these symptoms, contact us for a free transmission inspection.
Slipping Gears
Engine revs but the vehicle does not accelerate properly. Feels like the transmission is losing power or shifting on its own.
Rough or Delayed Shifting
Hard shifts, jerking, or a noticeable delay when shifting from Park to Drive or between gears. Common on Highway 101 commutes.
Fluid Leaks
Red or brown fluid under your car indicates a transmission leak. Low fluid causes overheating and accelerated wear on internal components.
Unusual Noises
Whining, humming, grinding, or clunking sounds during shifting or while driving indicate internal transmission problems that need diagnosis.
Burning Smell
A burning odor often indicates overheated transmission fluid. This is an urgent warning sign that requires immediate attention.
Check Engine or Transmission Light
Dashboard warning lights related to the transmission should always be diagnosed promptly. We read and interpret transmission-specific codes.

Transmission Repair FAQ for Petaluma Drivers
How much does transmission repair cost in Petaluma?
Transmission repair costs vary significantly depending on the type of repair needed. Minor services like fluid changes are affordable maintenance, while a full rebuild is a larger investment that is still typically more cost-effective than replacement. We provide free transmission inspections and detailed written estimates. Call (707) 584-7727 for a free estimate.
What are the signs my transmission needs repair?
Common warning signs include slipping gears, delayed or rough shifting, grinding or shaking, transmission fluid leaks (red or brown fluid under your car), burning smell, check engine light, whining or humming noises, and the transmission warning light. If you notice any of these symptoms, get it checked promptly to prevent further damage.
Do you repair automatic, manual, and CVT transmissions?
Yes! As ATRA certified specialists, we repair all transmission types: conventional automatic, manual/standard, CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission), dual-clutch (DCT/DSG), and automated manual transmissions. We are the nearest ATRA certified transmission shop to Petaluma.
What is included in a transmission fluid service?
Our transmission fluid service includes draining the old fluid, replacing the transmission filter (when applicable), installing fresh manufacturer-specified fluid, and a comprehensive inspection of the transmission pan for debris that can indicate internal wear. Regular fluid service is the best way to prevent costly transmission problems.
How long does a transmission rebuild take?
A transmission rebuild typically takes 3-5 business days depending on the complexity of the transmission and parts availability. We provide regular updates throughout the process and will not begin work without your approval on the estimate. Minor transmission repairs may be completed same-day.
Is it better to rebuild or replace my transmission?
In most cases, a rebuild is more cost-effective than replacement and provides excellent results. A rebuilt transmission replaces all worn components while keeping the core, often lasting as long as a new unit. We evaluate your specific situation and recommend the most cost-effective option. Call (707) 584-7727 to discuss your transmission.
Do you offer a warranty on transmission repairs?
Yes! We stand behind our transmission work with a warranty on parts and labor. As ATRA members, we have access to the nationwide ATRA warranty network, giving you coverage even if you travel outside Sonoma County. Ask about specific warranty terms when you receive your estimate.
