Transmission Additives & Maintenance: Your Guide to Smooth Shifting

Published on: 18/03/2025

Transmission additives can help reduce wear on components, but caution is advised as some may harm your transmission. Before using additives, identify the noise source, consult the owner's manual, choose a reputable brand, and follow instructions strictly. Transmission service intervals vary: automatic transmissions need fluid changes every 30,000-60,000 miles and inspections every 15,000-30,000 miles; manual transmissions require fluid changes every 30,000-60,000 miles and inspections every 15,000-30,000 miles; CVTs need specific manual recommendations for fluid changes and inspections every 15,000-30,000 miles; heavy-duty trucks need more frequent service, especially for towing or hauling. Considering a manual valve body swap for shift issues is not recommended due to compatibility, cost, performance reduction, and increased shift harshness. Instead, tune your transmission, replace worn components, upgrade the torque converter, or install a transmission cooler. Always consult a qualified technician for accurate diagnostics and recommendations, and refer to your owner's manual for specific advice.

At Truck Transmission Specialists (TTS), we are dedicated experts in heavy-duty truck transmissions for brands like Ford, Dodge Ram, GMC, and Chevy. Transmission issues like slipping gears often indicate your truck is overburdened, prompting the need for immediate attention to prevent costly damage. Overloading your truck can severely strain its transmission, much like running a marathon with ankle weights, potentially leading to overheating and breakdowns. To avoid such issues, heed your truck's weight limits, ensure even load distribution, and maintain regular transmission service, including fluid changes and inspections. Upgrading to heavy-duty components can also benefit frequent heavy haulers. If your check engine light appears, use a diagnostic scanner to read common trouble codes (e.g., P0700, P0730, P0740, P0750) and consult TTS for accurate diagnosis and repairs. We're committed to maintaining your truck's smooth performance and longevity.
