Transmission Maintenance Near Tavares, FL
Regular transmission maintenance is one of the most overlooked services on any vehicle, and one of the most cost-effective things you can do to avoid a major repair later. RJ Fox Automotive performs transmission fluid services, filter replacements, and full transmission inspections for all vehicle makes and models at our Eustis shop, a short drive from Tavares on US-441 or SR-19 South.
A full transmission service includes draining the old fluid, dropping the pan, replacing the filter and pan gasket, cleaning the pan, and refilling with the correct fluid to manufacturer specification. We inspect the pan for metal debris or clutch material that would indicate internal wear, and we check external seals and the transmission cooler lines for leaks.
