hand on the shifter of a car

Just because manual transmissions aren’t as common these days as they used to be, there are still many out there, and at Elite Automotive LLC in Covington, KY, our certified technicians know how to keep them running at their best.

With the advances made in the engineering of automatic transmissions, manual transmissions are getting harder to come by. However, there are still a lot of them out there - enthusiasts, or people looking for fuel mileage and durability, often still prefer them.

While there are slight differences depending on the type of car, truck, or SUV you drive, all manual transmissions work in fundamentally the same way. At Elite Automotive LLC in Covington, KY, our goal is to keep you informed, so you know how best to take care of your car and transmission.

We want you to understand more about your standard shift transmission, what to watch out for and how to know if something is wrong. We’re ready to help you with a transmission problem at Elite Automotive LLC, but we’d rather just help you keep yours maintained.

Maintaining a transmission is much easier when you know what it’s doing, how it works and how to catch issues before they become bigger ones. As a result, you’ll be able to keep your truck reliably on the road for years to come. If you read this list and feel more confused than ever, don’t worry because here at Elite Automotive LLC, we understand how to keep you going.
