The Car Lab Auto Repair Center recognizes how vital it is to keep MG vehicles operating with peak transmission system efficiency for their quick and responsive driving characteristics. When transmission fluid maintenance is delayed, it generates three well-known problems that combine to speed up the ageing process of vital transmission elements. Our specialists with MG transmission system expertise adhere to manufacturer-approved procedures to guarantee your vehicle satisfies all standards. Following a systematic process allows us to ensure your MG vehicle’s transmission operates with peak performance.
Initial Consultation: Our transmission fluid replacement process begins with an extensive consultation to evaluate your MG’s transmission operational performance. Our team actively listens to your concerns about shifting problems, noises, or hesitations. We examine your vehicle’s service record since we need to know about past transmission work and fluid modifications that impact replacing the transmission fluid.
Pre-Service Inspection: Our technicians must conduct a complete inspection of the transmission system on your MG vehicle before beginning the fluid replacement procedure. As part of the inspection, we examine every gearbox component, gasket, and seal while scanning for fluid leakage or broken parts. Our technicians collect samples to examine the fluid level, color, texture, and smell. Our evaluation allows us to identify potential transmission issues that need repair before the procedure.
Transmission Fluid Drain: After the inspection is completed we drain the old transmission fluid by removing the drain plug that allows the fluid to empty into a clean container. Our technicians thoroughly check the fluid for metal particles, sludge, and debris and examine it for internal transmission problems during this step. The transmission pan receives a complete cleaning process to guarantee that the new fluid remains contaminant-free.
Filter Replacement: Transmission filter replacement is a crucial service for properly maintaining MG transmission systems. When we drain out the previous fluid, we thoroughly inspect the old transmission filter for signs of wear and dirt before installing the new component. We perform component cleaning procedures around the system to stop contaminants from entering the transmission fluid circuit, thereby preserving its peak performance standards.
Gasket Replacement: Transmission gaskets deteriorate naturally, resulting in fluid leaks. We check the pan and its mating surfaces for problems before dispatching the old gasket. The surfaces are smoothed with a gasket scraper before we apply the new gasket or gasket sealant, as laid out in MG’s guidelines, to achieve both seal efficiency and leak prevention.
Reassembly and Refill: Our technicians reassemble the transmission pan and properly fill your MG’s transmission with the fluid its manufacturer recommends. They measure the fluid level precisely before making necessary adjustments.
Final Inspection and Test Drive: Our team drives the vehicle to check transmission performance following fluid maintenance procedures, then executes a final inspection focusing on its shifting mechanics and operational stability. A full inspection follows the test drive to verify the fluid level and confirm no leakage occurs. Your MG’s maintenance records are added through detailed service documentation, including fluid types used during replacement and component replacement details.
