• I'm Having Trouble Changing Gear: If you notice hesitation when shifting gears or find yourself unable to change gears, you may need a new clutch.
• I Hear Whining & Other Strange Sounds: Transmission problems may produce a hum, buzz, or whine. If you hear a clunk when you change gears, this is a strong indicator that the problem is with your transmission.
• I See Transmission Fluid Leaking: If you notice a bright red fluid with a sweet smell leaking from your vehicle, it's important to seek repair immediately. This is transmission fluid. It's required for your vehicle to operate and prevents the engine from seizing.
