Common Questions Our Customers Ask
Q1. Is it better to rebuild my transmission or replace it with a used one?
Ans. It is better to rebuild your transmission than replace it with another used one - especially if you value long-term reliability and peace of mind. A used transmission costs less upfront, but it has major risks associated with it, such as - unknown mileage, hidden damage, and often no warranty.
However, a rebuilt transmission is thoroughly disassembled, cleaned, and fitted with new or reconditioned parts to meet or exceed factory standards. Most rebuilds also include a warranty, and because they can be customized to your car, their compatibility, and their performance, they are so much more dependable.
Q2. What are the warning signs that my transmission is failing?
Ans. There are several warning signs that your transmission might be failing. These signs shouldn’t be taken lightly, as they can lead to some major issues later on. Some of them are -
- Burning smells are often caused by overheated fluid.
- Leaking transmission fluid - if red or brown fluid is found under your car.
- Delayed or harsh shifting is a clear sign of damage to internal components.
- Strange noises like whining, grinding, or clunking when the car shifts or is in neutral.
- Slippery gears cause the car to shift all of a sudden or lose power during acceleration.
In addition to these, when your car refuses to go into gear or feels sluggish even when the engine is fine - it’s time you take your vehicle to a professional.
Why Choose Us?
We Advised Mr. Royce Gough On A Repair/Replacement | Honest Opinion | Major Savings
Royce Gough has trusted California Transmission for years, and his latest experience has made the trust more solid. When he faced an issue regarding a failed automatic transmission in his German vehicle - it needed a rebuild that would demand extensive hours and high costs. But we didn’t rush to a sale.
Instead, we explored all the available options, reviewing both replacement and repair paths to find the most practical solution. Unfortunately, the best decision was made, of course, after discussing with Mr. Gough - to let the car go!
He truly felt like we were partnering with him, not just fixing the car. That trust only deepened when he returned with what seemed like another big issue - and we discovered it, fixed it, and it didn’t even cost much. We always value honesty - and that’s why we’ll always be his first call.

We Helped McKenzie McCarthy With A Major Repair | Warranty-Backed Services
When McKenzie brought in the vehicle, he was overwhelmed by the size of the repair needed and unsure about how to move forward. With limited knowledge about automotive, she felt stressed and worried - especially about the cost.
That’s when Joe, our shop owner, explained the process in plain language. He also contacted McKenzie’s warranty company to know the coverage options and reduce her out-of-pocket expenses.
Joe went above and beyond to help him and ensure that the repair was done smoothly and affordably. He left confident and relieved, knowing he had found a trustworthy and transparent auto shop he could count on. His words say it best - “If I could a give a million starts - I would!” And… that meant a lot to us!
We Serviced Mr. Andrews' Truck Transmission | Fluid Change | Check Engine Light Support
Andrew contacted us on a Friday to schedule a transmission fluid service for his truck. We promptly confirmed his appointment for Monday morning, ensuring a perfect drop-off process. Upon arrival, our team was ready with the parts expected to arrive shortly, and we aimed for the same-day completion.
By 12 PM - just a few hours later, we contacted Andrews to let him know that the service was completed and his vehicle was ready for pickup. While servicing his transmission, our technicians also noticed a check engine light, which they documented at no added cost.
This small step showed our commitment to serve with transparency and honesty. Andrews appreciated the clear communication, professionalism, attention to detail, and thorough work - noting that he’ll be returning for future services.
We Fixed Mr. Tate’s Manual Transmission | Clutch Issues | Rough Shifting
When Mr. Tate reached out to us - he was experiencing issues with his 2015 Dodge Challenger’s manual transmission. He reported trouble with clutch engagement and rough shifting that has been going on since he bought the car 2.5 years ago.
After we had a quick conversation over a call, we booked an appointment for him with our office manager, Pam, for the same week. We took a look and identified that the clutch was worn out and needed replacement. With approval from Mr. Tate, we moved quickly - the car was dropped at 9 AM, and she was ready to hit the road by the next morning, sharp at 9.20 AM.
Joe, the owner of California Transmission, personally inspected the car to ensure everything met our standards. Mr. Tate was thrilled with our work, noting his car had never shifted this smoothly. We’re proud to have earned his trust!
