At The Car Lab Auto Repair Center, our transmission services for Bentley vehicles are carried out by professional technicians using the latest technology and techniques. Our technicians are well-trained in automotive technology to help you have the best Bentley transmission service and repair. The solutions aim to increase the operational performance, service life of equipment and gear, and overall ride comfort. Below is a brief overview of our Bentley transmission rebuild and replacement services.
Initial Consultation: Our service begins with a detailed consultation to understand the issues you’re experiencing with your Bentley’s transmission. We discuss noticeable symptoms, such as gear slipping, rough shifting, or unusual noises. Also, we analyze its service history to identify any previous transmission problems which might affect our repair or replacement solution.
Pre-Service Inspection: During the pre-service check-up, our team takes time to first look at the fluid level of the vehicle, examine the condition of the fluids, and look for any signs of leakage or damage to the car in question. We use advanced diagnostic tools to scan the transmission control module for error codes, helping to identify any underlying problems that could influence the repair strategy.
Test Drive: To evaluate real-world transmission performance, we conduct a test drive to assess gear shift quality and transmission behavior. We observe for signs of gear slippage, delayed shifts, or abrupt shifts, which assists us in pinpointing the precise issue affecting your Bentley’s transmission.
Transmission Removal Preparation: We prepare for transmission removal once diagnostics are complete. For regular checking, the vehicle is raised using a hydraulic lift, and then the transmission fluid is removed and checked for signs of metal or burnt smell that would suggest internal damage.
Transmission Removal: Our technicians carefully remove the transmission system, including all necessary parts like the driveshaft, shift linkage, and electrical connections. An engine support bar is used to secure the engine during this process, and we handle all components with precision to avoid damage.
Transmission Disassembly (For Rebuilds): When a rebuild is required, we remove all internal transmission components, such as gears, clutches, bearings etc and examine them. Every part is checked for wear or damage to identify which parts should be changed to bring the transmission back into the best possible state.
Component Replacement (For Rebuilds): During the rebuild, worn or damaged parts, such as trims, clutches, seals, gaskets, bearings, gears, etc, are replaced by new or remanufactured ones. Each part is carefully washed and greased to meet Bentley’s highest standards. The gearbox is then assembled, and it is done very cautiously.
Installation of Rebuilt or Replacement Transmission: Whether we’re reinstalling a rebuilt transmission or a new replacement, our team follows Bentley’s standards for installation. We reconnect the driveshaft, electrical components, and transmission system, verifying that all fasteners are securely tightened for flawless fit and functionality.
Hydraulic System Bleeding: To ensure that no air bubbles are retained in the hydraulic system during transmission replacement, we do a system bleed. This critical step restores proper hydraulic pressure, providing smooth gear transitions and reliable transmission operation.
