Automatic Gearbox Servicing – Weston-super-Mare

Automatic gearboxes are often overlooked when it comes to routine maintenance, but the fluid inside them degrades over time and with use. Neglecting a gearbox service can lead to sluggish gear changes, overheating, and eventually serious mechanical damage that’s far more costly to put right. 

At Scaurs Garage, we carry out automatic gearbox servicing on a wide range of makes and models, including vans. 

How often should an automatic gearbox be serviced?

Manufacturer recommendations vary, but as a general guide, most automatic gearboxes benefit from a fluid change every 40,000 to 60,000 miles, or sooner if the vehicle is used for towing or in stop-start urban conditions. If your gearbox is hesitating, slipping, or behaving inconsistently, a service may resolve it, but we’ll diagnose it properly before recommending any work. 

We carry out automatic gearbox work for drivers across Weston-super-Mare and beyond. If you’re unsure whether your gearbox is due a service or you’ve noticed a change in how it’s behaving, give us a call. We’ll give you an honest assessment and a clear quote before anything is started.
