Your Toyota's transmission is a complex mechanism that's a fundamental part of your car. On most drives, the transmission likely doesn't even cross your mind, but this vehicle gearbox is what helps Oahu motorists zip from Honolulu to Waipahu with ease. The transmission converts your engine's combustion power to momentum to drive the wheels.
Without a working transmission, your Toyota is going nowhere. That's why if Honolulu drivers are having issues with their transmission, they need to have this vital vehicle component repaired at Servco Toyota. You can count on our team of Toyota-certified technicians to handle the meticulous details of a high-quality transmission repair. Each Servco Toyota service center in Honolulu, Kauai, Waipahu, and Kaneohe is well equipped to handle transmission repairs and all your maintenance needs.
There are various transmission types - namely manual, CVT, and automatic - but most Toyota engines are paired with an automatic transmission.
When Kauai motorists bring their vehicle in for a transmission repair, our Toyota-certified technicians take over. Typically, your transmission is mounted to one side of the engine. They'll inspect the transmission, the engine, and additional components. If a transmission repair is needed, the Servco Toyota service technicians will run diagnostics on your transmission and begin disconnecting fluid lines and work on engine mounts, axles, driveshafts, electrical wiring, and exhaust system components.
Part of a transmission inspection requires checking transmission shafts and bearings, as well as performing a gearbox inspection to check gears and gear ratios. At our Servco Toyota service centers, we want to make sure your gears aren't slipping. We'll also check if your clutch is dragging. This is the failure to disengage the clutch disk from the flywheel while exerting force on the clutch pedal.
Each part of your transmission is inspected. So is the torque converter, which connects the engine and transmission. The Servco Toyota technicians will also check your transmission fluid and make sure it isn't low or leaking.
Being one of the most major repairs, maintenance work on your transmission is often thought to be costly, but Servco Toyota makes it affordable. Take a peek at our ongoing Toyota service specials so that you can save money on transmission repair whether you drive around Oahu, Maui, or Kauai.

Q: When should I check my transmission fluid?
A: Honolulu drivers should check their transmission fluid every month or on a regular basis. Do this by pulling out the dipstick. If you see pink, clear transmission fluid that is near full, you're good to drive. Your transmission could be in trouble if the fluid is dark, carrying a burnt smell, or has bits and debris in it. That means it's time for a transmission flush from Servco Toyota!
Q: How do I know if my transmission is leaking fluid?
A: Your transmission fluid will need replacing if it appears brown or dirty with debris. It's good if your transmission fluid feels slick and oily on your fingers while showing a red-pink tint. Transmission fluid typically leaks around the front or middle of your vehicle. After pulling out of your Waipahu driveway, you may find puddles of a red liquid. That's likely leaking transmission fluid.
Without even realizing it, you and your transmission control how much power is delivered to your car's wheels. A working transmission is important for uninterrupted driving. A failing transmission will not shift smoothly from gear to gear or stay fully in gear while driving. You may notice your Toyota's engine revs up without any apparent acceleration. This means the power is not reaching the wheels. No power means you're stuck.
A transmission repair is needed to ensure a smooth drive and effortless shifting between gears. Gears slipping in and out of place while driving around Honolulu is a safety hazard. If a transmission starts slipping, it needs to be repaired immediately. Don't drive any more miles around Oahu or our Imports Service Center until getting transmission repair from Servco Toyota.
