Q: How much can I expect to pay for a transmission repair?
A: The price to repair a transmission depends on several factors. These
include determining the cause of your transmission problem, the condition
and type of transmission in your car, and the type of service that needs to be
done. AAMCO offers an External Diagnostic Service to identify how to fix your
problem and keep your costs to a minimum. The AAMCO External Diagnostic
Service includes checking the level and condition of the transmission fluid,
road testing your car, and a diagnosis of the external transmission controls.
This service determines if there is a transmission problem, and if the
problem can be corrected with an external repair or adjustment. Contact
your local AAMCO center to have an External Diagnostic Service completed.

Q: How long does it typically take for a transmission repair?
A: Minor services can sometimes be performed the same day since they do
not involve the removal of your transmission. Major services or transmission
rebuilding could take several days so that your transmission can be properly
removed, reconditioned or rebuilt, and reinstalled.
Q: What do I do if I can’t drive my vehicle to the nearest AAMCO?
A: AAMCO centers have towing available. Contact your local AAMCO center

(1800-GO-AAMCO). Many AAMCO centers can often arrange for towing after
hours.
