Mechanic Working on a transmission

At Wayne & Sons Automotive Repair in Santa Rosa, we understand the importance of proper transmission maintenance. Commercial trucks are heavy, and they rack in a lot of miles. With this combination, it’s essential the transmissions in your trucks are always performing their best. Here’s a few things to watch out for:

bad clutch

This is a clutch gone completely wrong and something you want to be sure doesn't happen with your vehicle! So how do you ensure you are not having an issue with your clutch when most drivers simply get in and drive? What do you look for? That is a question many of our customers ask us here at Wayne & Sons Automotive Repair in Santa Rosa and one this driver did not.

gear shift

Sometimes your car, truck, or SUV stops performing quite like it used to. At Wayne & Sons Automotive Repair in Santa Rosa, we can fix that. A simple but common issue on vehicles equipped with a manual transmission is shifter bushing issues. Your shifter has a bushing on the end of it, where it connects to the actual transmission. Its purpose is to provide tight, smooth shifting.
