A Trusted transmission shop to handle clutch repairs
Transmission problems don’t immediately indicate a need for a complete transmission replacement or lengthy repair. Other, related issues can be solved at a lower cost and in a faster time frame. Hoffmaster’s Auto Care provides not only transmission maintenance, but driveline maintenance and repairs, clutch repairs, and a look at the transmission filter and transmission fluid exchanges.
A transmission fluid leak or transmission filter exchange can help with transmission problems and restore power to the vehicle. Many signs of a clogged filter are the same signs you notice when you’re having transmission issues in general: rattling or whining noises, burning odors, gear shifting delays, or fluid leaks.
For manual transmissions, keeping an eye on the clutch’s maintenance is vital. Let Hoffmaster’s Auto Car handle your clutch repairs if you’re noticing:
- Clutch pedal is loose, spongy, or sticky when pressed
- Unusual noises when pressed, like squeaks or grumbles
- Poor acceleration but the engine revs
- Shifting gear difficulties
- A loss of acceleration or “slipping” gears
- Grinding noises

Minor transmission repairs, like a clutch replacement or transmission filter exchange run a few hundred dollars. The entire replacement of a transmission however, or lengthy transmission repairs, can be upwards of a couple of thousand dollars when calculating parts, labor, and length of repairs.
