Galeana Kia - Kia transmission service near Naples FL
Many car owners believe that the fate of their transmission is in the hands of fate. The engine's essential maintenance is the oil change, which calls attention to the fact that drivers have some control over how long their engine lasts. The great news is that there are ways you can keep your transmission running at higher performance and cut down on expensive repair bills in the future. Even if you have an automatic transmission, you're the one who's controlling when the transmission is activated. Many people are very rough on an automatic transmission and shift before their vehicle is at a complete stop. Don't! Ensure your vehicle is at a standstill before putting it in park. And of course, you can be very light on the shifter and show it some respect. Hard handling of the shifter sometimes leads to broken transmission cables or other repair bills. Just like you check your model's oil levels, be sure to check transmission fluid, too. While it lasts longer than oil, some conditions might lead to low transmission fluid. Don't drive your model if it is low on this essential fluid. Ask our Galeana Kia service center professionals near Naples, FL, for more tips on keeping your transmission running at peak performance.
