Our Petaluma drivers have been experiencing issues with their transmissions and there are a few things that we here at Glenn's Auto & Truck Repair feel are important to know so that you are more comfortable and confident if you are, indeed experiencing a transmission problem of any kind. First, if you drive a vehicle manufactured in the past few decades, there’s a good chance your transmission has a variety of sensors attached to it which monitors all kinds of things - fluid pressure, vehicle speed, temperature, air intake at the engine, and so on. The first thing to check is your Transmission Sensor, which is a much more affordable fix than replacing your transmission!
At Glenn's Auto & Truck Repair in Petaluma, CA, we know that transmissions are witchcraft to most people. More often than not, if major damage has occurred, it’s a lot more time and cost effective to just replace the entire unit and get a fresh start. Here’s what to look out for, from Glenn's Auto & Truck Repair in Petaluma, CA.
Diesel engines are known for their durability, but even the best engine has to be replaced every once in a while. At Glenn's Auto & Truck Repair in Petaluma, CA, we want you to be aware of signs that your engine is about to call it quits.
With a few exceptions, today’s vehicles get much better gas mileage than they did even a couple of decades ago, despite getting constantly heavier and more powerful. How do they do it? Here are the points, from Glenn's Auto & Truck Repair in Petaluma, CA.
Fleet cars, vans, and trucks see a lot of wear and tear. If your engine has already called it a day, then it’s obviously case closed - you need a new engine or a new vehicle. However, there are many times when an engine is about to go down, and you can get it taken care of before it kicks the bucket for good - saving you time and towing in the process.
Your tires are obviously important. However, it’s often underappreciated how much of a difference they make in the ride quality of your car, truck, or SUV, and what they can tell you about the condition of your vehicle. At Glenn's Auto & Truck Repair in Petaluma, CA, we like to keep you well informed on what your vehicle is telling you, and how to keep it in good shape. Your tires have a lot to do with that.
What condition are your tires in? At Glenn's Auto & Truck Repair in Petaluma, CA, we want to make sure you can tell. A simple visual inspection is all you need - it’s easy if you know what to look for.
My 1954 Chevy pick-up has never run better! Thank you, Glenn!!
