One of the key components of your Lexus is your transmission, sending energy from the engine to the drivetrain, and helping to switch gears smoothly and efficiently. This is why it’s so important to ensure it gets regular service to ensure it continues to work correctly. Read on with the service experts here at Lexus Downtown as we take a closer look at what goes into transmission service, and why it’s so important.
Transmission Service
In order to function properly, your transmission uses a special lubricant and coolant. Much like an oil change, getting your transmission serviced involves a system check and fluid change, to ensure the transmission fluid hasn’t become depleted, and remains clean.
Service Benefits
Worn out transmission fluid can do damage to your vehicle, by causing the transmission parts to overheat or grind when changing gears. Having it regularly serviced ensures your Lexus’ engine will run better and last longer. Likewise, a transmission that is running correctly will help your engine make smooth and efficient gear shifts, and can enhance overall performance and fuel efficiency.
Regular Service Intervals
It’s recommended that you have the transmission on your Lexus serviced every two years, or every 50,000 km if you drive more than the average. Our team of certified Lexus service experts would be happy to advise you on the best time to get your transmission checked the next time you book in for your regular service interval.
