CVT Transmission Service Near Tavares, FL

Continuously variable transmissions are found in a wide range of vehicles common in the Tavares area, including Honda, Nissan, Subaru, Toyota, and many others. CVTs require a specific fluid formulation and service procedure that is different from a conventional automatic. RJ Fox Automotive performs CVT fluid exchanges and diagnostics at our Eustis shop, about ten minutes from Tavares on US-441 or SR-19 South.

If your CVT-equipped vehicle is shuddering between 25 and 45 mph, hesitating on acceleration, making a whining or humming noise at highway speed, or showing a transmission warning light, bring it in. CVT problems caught early are often resolved with a fluid exchange.
