WE UNDERSTAND COMPLEX TRANSMISSIONS SO YOU DON’T HAVE TO

At Port Phillip Automotive, we have a competent team of transmission mechanics that can diagnose and repair any gear or torque-related issues on your vehicle. We have worked on almost all models, new and old, so your car will be in safe hands with us.

We understand the unique composition and mechanical workings of transmission systems in almost every make of car, from manufacturer to manufacturer. Through years of experience, we’ve gained the ability and confidence to diagnose and repair all transmission problems successfully with expertise that is hard to find elsewhere.

If you experience a problem with your gears, such as slipping between gear shifts or a grinding noise, our team will be able to tell you if the problem is related to the transmission fluid or a more serious internal issue. Whether you have an automatic or manual transmission system in your vehicle, there is no need for concern because Port Phillip Automotive has the know-how to deal with both types efficiently. We provide clutch servicing, repairs and replacement for all makes and models.

WE MAKE TRANSMISSION FAILURE THE LEAST OF YOUR WORRIES

Transmission failure on a vehicle can set you back significantly, so at Port Phillip Automotive, we advise our clients to get the gears checked at frequent intervals and especially at the first sign of any damage. When transmission problems start to creep in, you may notice that your car will hold gears for too long, the gears will no longer shift easily, and the transmission may change up and down when it’s not necessary. These could all be indications that your car is in need of transmission repair or replacement.

In very serious cases where the damage is deeply ingrained, your car may require a complete transmission rebuild. In this case, our mechanics at Port Phillip Automotive in Rosebud will remove and disassemble the gearbox or transmission system, replace worn-out parts with quality parts suitable for your make of car, and then reassemble and reinstall the new system. Our goal is to have you back on the road in no time, driving with ease and peace of mind for you and your loved ones.

TRANSMISSION REPAIR FOR HEAVY-DUTY VEHICLES

Some vehicles undergo more wear and tear than others because they are used more frequently or for heavy loads. If you are driving a heavy-duty vehicle to tow larger-than-average roads on a regular basis, this activity will place excess stress on your car’s transmission. Most cars, trucks or utes will have a maximum towing capacity, and it’s important to adhere to this recommendation for maximum safety and longevity of your vehicle. Each vehicle also has a transmission cooling system to help counter the effect of excess stress, but if this is not matched accurately to your maximum towing capacity, your car can overheat, leading to a further need for transmission repair.

Are you are doing heavy loads with your vehicle? We recommend getting a transmission service done. Our team can assist you with automatic transmission cooling upgrades, which help to protect transmission systems on big cars, trucks and trailers from overheating. Professional attention to your transmission can also improve performance and towing efficiency.
