How to Decide Between a Transmission Repair and Transmission Replacement

The decision to repair or replace your transmission depends on several factors. Minor transmission issues may be repairable at a lower cost, while extensive damage or an older car with a lower market value might make a rebuild more cost-effective. However, for newer, more valuable vehicles or if you rely heavily on your car, a replacement transmission may be a better long-term investment.


At our transmission shop in Lakeland, FL, our expert technicians will thoroughly diagnose your transmission problem and provide you with a transparent breakdown of your options, including repair costs and replacement estimates.
