Transmission Maintenance Near Clermont, FL
The transmissions that come in for expensive rebuilds are almost always the ones that never got serviced. Fluid that breaks down and accumulates metal particles does damage long before any symptom appears. RJ Fox Automotive performs transmission fluid services, filter replacements, and full inspections for all makes and models at our Eustis shop, about thirty minutes from Clermont via US-27 North.
We drain the old fluid and look at it before refilling. Dark, burnt-smelling fluid with metal particles tells us a different story than fluid that is just overdue. We drop the pan, clean it, replace the filter and gasket, refill to the correct manufacturer-specified fluid level, and check all external seals and cooler lines before the vehicle leaves.
