    Does your transmission need to be replaced?  Get a transmission replacement at NOLA Automotive Repairs where expert mechanics can thoroughly assess issues with your transmission that needs immediate attention.

    When you detect a problem with your transmission, and you get it fixed, you are doing your car and yourself a great favor.  You will be able to save hundreds of dollars on more costly repairs if you are not able to have the problem fixed right away.

    What Are the Common Transmission Problems in New Orleans?

    Maintaining your car’s transmission will bring long-term benefits.  Because the transmission is a complicated mechanical system, it can be overwhelming if you are not aware of its specific functions and how it works to help your car function properly.

    The typical transmission problems that would need immediate repair include:

    1. Leaking fluid

    One of the first things you should be checking is the level of the transmission fluid of your vehicle.  A low level or no transmission fluid causes several transmission problems that can be costly and more difficult to deal with.

    1. Grinding or shuddering

    When you get your transmission repaired, the mechanic will most likely check the clutch of your vehicle.  The way you drive can also affect transmission problems. The wear and tear of your transmission can be accelerated through improper driving, like not keeping the clutch fully engaged while driving or downshifting instead of breaking.

    1. Can’t Get Into Gear

    When your gearbox does not change gear, it is a bad sign.  There may be problems with your fluid level or you may have used the wrong transmission fluid.  Before starting a repair, you can check the transmission oil level first.  Other considerations causing this problem could be:

    • Shifting cables or clutch linkage needing adjustment
    • The computer system of your vehicle is not communicating with the shifters
    1. Gears Slipping

    When your transmission oil level is fine, but your transmission keeps slipping, the linkage parts on your transmission can be worn out.  For manual transmissions, they should never go out of gear unless you perform a shift.  For automatic transmissions, slipping gears can be caused by a malfunction in the computer system.  

    1. Clunking, whining, or humming

    Any unusual noise coming from the engine is a red flag.  Be alert when you hear something out of the ordinary.  There are transmission problems in automatic transmissions when you hear whining or humming.  For manual transmissions, you will hear clunking when you shift to first gear.

    1. Grinding or shuddering

    There might be a clutch problem when you hear grinding or shuddering between gears.  The synchronizers might also be having a problem when you hear these sounds.  Automatic transmissions can also cause a jarring sensation which means you will need transmission servicing.

    1. Rebuild or replacement

    There may be instances when a transmission repair cannot be done.  When your transmission fails or stops working, mechanics will offer or recommend a transmission replacement or rebuild.  Your mechanic should be able to tell you more about this when this is needed.

    1.  Burning smell

    Burning transmission fluid is a sign of an overheating gearbox caused by dirty transmission fluid, low transmission fluid, or leaking transmission fluid.  These can cause significant damage if they are not attended to immediately.

    1.  Noisy Neutral

    Your vehicle can be encountering transmission fluid problems when you hear loud noises when your car is in neutral.  Otherwise, the noise can be caused by worn bearings, general wear and tear, worn-out reverse idler, or worn gear teeth.

    1.  Slow acceleration response

    When you notice that your vehicle hesitates between gears or is slow to take off, this can be caused by a worn clutch in a manual transmission.  Have your transmission checked when your throttle is slow to engage.

    Facts About Transmission Repairs

    You will need to get the best value for your dollar when it comes to transmission repairs.  It is most important that when you get repairs on your transmission, it will not only be a temporary fix.

    You will need the help of an expert mechanic who specializes in repairing transmissions to make sure that you don’t just get a quick fix with an issue that you will have to deal with repeatedly within a year.

    Transmission repairs that are only minor like fluid change will only cost a few hundred dollars but you should know specifically what needs to be done with your transmission and what the problem really is to avoid it from happening in the future.  Otherwise, you will need to spend more on a transmission replacement.

    • Aston Martin calls it the 'fastest luxury SUV in the world' and 'the supercar of SUVs' but is the DBX707 worth all this hype?

It is the fastest and most powerful SUV you can currently buy (order) in SA so there is that but the reality today is that the 707 will have to dice with the Urus, the Bentayga Speed, and the Cayenne Turbo GT for hearts, minds, and wallets.

Aston estimates 65% of DBX sales going forward will be this 697 hp (520 kW) and 900Nm variant and after driving it, this might be an underestimate. If the regular DBX is in your price range, then you can almost certainly afford a DBX707.

It can hit 100 km/h in 3.3s and go to a ridiculous 310 km/h so, of course, it is properly quick but it is just as impressive when the roads get twistier and it instils an enormous amount of confidence in the driver.

If you fancy snapping up this contender for the Super SUV king title, you are going to need at least R5m making it significantly more expensive than the Lambo and Porsche counterparts but you will be driving something a lot more rare which could be the reason you hand your money to Aston Martin.

What do you all think?
