Mike Shaw Subaru Service Center is Also a Transmission Shop for the Denver Area

If you're having problems with the transmission in your Subaru, whether it's manual, automatic, or an advanced new CVT, it only makes sense to trust the experts who were trained by the factory. There's just too great a chance that the mechanic at an independent transmission shop won't be as well trained in Subaru transmissions. Fortunately, we're here to help with competitive pricing in our authorized service center in Thornton.

Below, we look at some reasons why you may be having transmission issues, how best to maintain it, and more. This is just one way that we go above and beyond to best service our customers, and it's easy to schedule your next Subaru transmission repair or service right here online.

How Do You Know if Your Transmission has a Problem?

One of the more common early warning signs that your transmission needs repair is a hesitation when going in gear. For instance, if you put the vehicle in reverse and it takes a little longer than usual to go in gear, it's time to have the experts look it over. At this early stage, the matter could be as simple as catching up on basic transmission maintenance. If you put the shifter in gear, hit the gas, and the engine revs without the vehicle moving, then you almost certainly need to have the transmission repaired.

How Often Should You Maintain Your Subaru Transmission

The maintenance that your transmission requires depends on a variety of factors including the type of transmission and the driving demands placed on it. If you drive a manual stick shift transmission, an occasional changing of the fluid and maybe a new clutch now and then will take care of it. The newer Continuously Variable Transmissions (CVT) are exceptionally sophisticated and must be maintained in a 'clean room' that's free of potential contaminants. We strongly recommend speaking with a service advisor about maintaining your Subaru CVT and only trust a certified transmission shop like what we offer in our dealership service department.
