What may affect the cost of a transmission repair.

Transmission problems are inconvenient and followed by unexpected expenses. One reason it is
highly recommended to have regular transmission maintenance. Unfortunately, transmissions still may
have problems that require a transmission repair. There are few factors that affect the cost of the
repairs.

Transmission Rebuild or Transmission Replacement
Once a transmission is diagnosed, the mechanics examine the transmission as a whole to know
if the transmission just needs a minor replacement or full overhaul. In most cases, a transmission
problem just requires a transmission rebuild. Although if a transmission is severely damaged or the
problem is undetectable it may require a complete transmission replacement. A full transmission
replacement is a most expensive route. For a transmission rebuild, it depends on different factors.
The Type of Transmission
The majority of transmission repairs need to replace parts. Similar to how vehicles are different
among the brand and type, transmissions can differ from one to the next. The way to take apart one
transmission is not the same for all of them. Also, one transmission part may be simple to replace, yet
the same part in another transmission may be more of a challenge.
Accessibility of Parts
Transmission parts are accessible or inaccessible. For example, if a part is small and accessible
then the cost is less expense, but a small yet inaccessible part causes the cost to increase. Accessible
parts are easy to attain and replace, while inaccessible parts require more work. Some parts can be
replaced while the transmission remains in the vehicle. Other parts are deeper within the transmission,
which means the transmission has to be taken out of the car to attain the part.
Expense of Parts
On top of accessibility, the expense of the part needing to be replaced can affect the cost.
Depending on the part, it can either be expensive or inexpensive. So, even when a transmission part is
accessible, the part alone can be an expensive.

So, what is the cost of transmission repair ? The cost of the repair varies according to many
factors. To get an estimate on a transmission repair, the transmission must be checked by a professional
mechanic that specializes in transmission services.

Transmission fluid is a slippery liquid that acts as a lubricant for all the moving parts inside of your transmission. In an automatic transmission, this fluid also works as a coolant and an adherent fluid that transmits power from the engine to the transmission.

A CVT is an automatic transmission system which offers a smoother driving experience by optimizing the process of change. The transition between gears becomes almost smooth by the design of the CVT, and the effect of "shift-shock" is greatly lessened. CVTs also provide better fuel economy and power consumption, as it allows the engine to operate at optimum power, regardless of how fast the vehicle travels. The word "continuously variable" implies that the CVT allows for a constant change within the engine, instead of the actual gear "stages," so that there is no apparent shift between gears. Different types of CVTs Many types of continuously variable transmissions are available, many of which are now available from major automakers. Pulley-Based The most common CVT uses a complex pulley system to provide smooth gear changes instead of gears. If you’re having issues with your cvt give us a call we offer a free initial check out.

5 Tips that will help you save money at a transmission shop! 1. Today's technology is great! When it comes to finding a good transmission shop, it's right at your fingertips. Checking the reviews of a shop on the internet is the first step to saving you money. This may sound silly but, good shops work hard for good reviews. 2. Resist the impulse to call a transmission shop and ask for a "worst case scenario", or a "ball park". Worst case is buying something you don't need. There are a lot of shops that will just throw a number out, all too quickly, hoping to land the job. 3. Keep in mind that a transmission has 300-400 moving parts. When someone says they can rebuild your transmission for a certain dollar figure, how many of those parts are they going to replace? Everyone is convinced that rebuilding a transmission means you take out ALL the old parts and put new ones back in their place. That's simply not the case. 4. It’s easy to make up prices over the phone, but a professional shop will always ask you to bring the vehicle in for a proper diagnosis. Doesn't it make more sense to base your decision on a thorough diagnosis and accurate pricing information, rather than some sort of random guess work by someone that hasn't even looked at your vehicle? 5. Honest shops make sure they only sell what is needed and do a good job for you. An honest shop will educate the customer, rather than trying to play them for a sucker. If you want to get the best price, seek out a professional transmission shop like Eagle Transmission. Serving Dallas Area and Ardmore Ok Eagle Transmission Shop
