You might know that replacing your transmission is expensive, but you might not have a clear idea of what the transmission does and why it's so important. At Smith Volvo Cars, we want to help you understand your vehicle better so that you're not surprised about a vehicle repair. Here is some information that you should know about transmissions.

First of all, you transmission is what shifts gears for the car, and if your transmission goes bad, you'll end up paying a lot of money to have it fixed. Plus, without a transmission that's in working condition, your vehicle just plain won't run.

If you're looking for ways to make sure that your transmission doesn't break down, you should get the transmission fluid changed according to the schedule that the manufacturer puts out in the user manual. This will keep the gears lubricated so that you're less likely to break down.
