Slipping Transmission Sacramento

Slipping Transmission
If your transmission slips between gear changes, or your clutch feels like it's slipping, you could have a serious transmission problem. Transmissions are designed to shift smoothly from gear to gear at predetermined speeds. If it doesn't, the problem could be one of several options:

• External controls need adjustment or replacement
• Electrical components need to be adjusted or replaced
• In automatic transmissions, the transmission's computer might need to be replaced
• The fluid level is low or has insufficient pressure
• The clutch needs to be adjusted or replaced
• Internal parts may be worn down or damaged which could involve a major repair

The cause could be one of several possibilities:

• The transmission fluid is low or needs replacing because it has become dirty
• There are internal problems in the transmission or transfer case
• The external controls or parts need adjustment or replacement
• Electrical components need to be adjusted or replaced
• In automatic transmissions, the transmission computer may need to be replaced
• Internal parts could be worn out or broken, which could mean a major repair
