### WHAT IS A MANUAL TRANSMISSION?
Manual transmissions have a driver-operated clutch and a movable gear stick. Think sport cars or big trucks with a dozen gears.  Most vehicles’ standard transmissions, aka stick shifts,  allow the driver to select any gear any time, but some, such as those mounted on motorcycles and some racing cars, only allow the driver to select the next-higher or next-lower gear. This transmission is often called a sequential manual transmission by the manual transmission specialist. Where you can only go from 1st to 2nd or 2nd to 3rd or 1st again. You cannot go from 1st to 3rd in a sequential transmission.
### How Does a Manual Transmissions Work?
Here is how a manual transmission works. The flywheel o is attached to the engine and the clutch disk is in between the pressure plate and flywheel. While driving, the clutch disk spins with the flywheel.
As the clutch pedal is depressed, the throw out bearing is pushed in, making the pressure plate stop applying pressure to the clutch disk. This makes it stop receiving engine power so the gear can be shifted without damaging the transmission. When the clutch pedal is released, the clutch disk is re-engaged and to receiving power from the engine again.
### Repairing Manual Transmission Components
Manual transmissions are characterized by gear ratios, selectable by locking selected gear pairs to the shaft inside the transmission by engaging the clutch manually with the driver’s left foot. That means there are different components that could fail or wear out and need repair or replacement. For example, most automatic transmissions have epicyclic (planetary) gearing controlled by brake bands and/or clutch packs to select gear ratio while a manual tranny’s gears are changed by the driver engaging the clutch and changing gears with a gear shift stick.
Unlike manuals, automatics allow the driver to manually select the current gear; these are called manumatics, but they are not a manual transmission at all. A real manual transmission is operated by computer, while most manual transmission repairs requires replacement or repair of mechanical components (not computer sensors).
Modern manual automobile transmissions typically use four to six forward gears and one reverse gear, although automobile manual transmissions have been built with as few as two and as many as eight gears.
### Repairing Manual Transmission in Heavy-Duty Trucks
Heavy-duty trucks and other heavy equipment usually have at least 9 gears so the transmission can offer both a wide range of gears and close gear ratios to keep the engine running in the power band. Heavy vehicle transmissions have dozens of gears, but many are duplicates, introduced as an accident of combining gear sets, or introduced to simplify shifting.
Some are referred to by the number of forward gears they offer (e.g., 5-speed) distinguishing them between automatic or other available manual transmissions. Similarly, a  is referred to as a “5-speed automatic.”
### DOES MY MANUAL TRANSMISSION NEED REPAIR?
If you hear a noise, don’t assume it’s the transmission. It may be worn CV joints, loose or broken motor mounts, flywheel or clutch repair problems. A Technician will conduct a test drive to verify and diagnose the cause of the noise.  to our customers. Call My Transmission Experts for a manual or standard transmission repair appointment. If you already checked the error code your vehicle is giving, check out the most common  for a better idea of what the problem is.
The most common problem in manual transmissions is that the fluid is often neglected. It is imperative for you to understand that the oil needs to be changed on a regular basis to . The manufacturer has a schedule for every car and you should check to see what your cars schedule is. Or you can give a call at any of our manual transmission shop and we will take a look for you.

Do not ignore oil leaks. Replacing a leaky seal can protect your transmission from failing due to loss of lubricant and the replacement of a leaky input shaft seal may prevent oil from contaminating the clutch, creating additional problems. Waiting and neglecting a leak will only cost more money in the long run.

# Change Transmission Fluid Flush
## We Will Change Your Transmission Fluid For You
### **Change Your Transmission Fluid Regularly and Don’t Forget to Flush**
We worry about our car engine’s oil, but what about changing transmission fluid? The importance of proper transmission fluid lubrication and occasional transmission flush cannot be overlooked. Similar to engine oil your transmission is constantly creating friction and without lubrication, it will start to cause problems. Keep in mind that the transmission’s job is to provide engine power to the wheels. This means that transmission fluid, a magenta-colored liquid that coats gears and  inside the transmission needs just as much attention as an engine’s oil. Sadly transmission fluid replacement is neglected by many, resulting in severe transmission problems and costly repairs. If your car has 80 to 100k miles we suggest you read the manufacturer’s suggested oil change intervals and get your fluid changed before it’s due and we are there for your car’s transmission fluid change Houston TX.
### TRANSMISSION OIL CHANGE & REPAIR SERVICES WE PROVIDE:
* Automatic transmission fluid change
* Complete automatic transmission fluid, filter and gasket service
* Manual transmission oil change
* Transmission fluid change or flush
* Front differential service
* Rear differential service
* Transfer case service
* Auto transmission flush service
### WHY DOES MY TRANSMISSION FLUID NEED TO BE CHANGED?
Today, most cars have an  that run on automatic transmission fluid, or ATF for short. Pressure changes within the ATF cause the transmission to switch gears. This is also how gears change in  . On a relatively simple drive from your house to the office, the transmission and the fluid do quite a bit of work. Fluid temperatures soar to 175 degrees Fahrenheit (79 degrees Celsius), which is perfectly normal for ATF. Should the fluid temperatures remain at 175 degrees Fahrenheit, ATF would mimic the Energizer Bunny and keep going and going for 100,000 miles or so.
Unfortunately, that temperature rarely stays in the optimal range.  The oil can heat beyond acceptable limits often due to variable driving conditions, stop-and-go driving, hauling a heavy load, driving long distances or up and down mountains. The higher temperatures, ATF begins to break down, and your transmission begins to shift gears roughly, slowly or both, that is when transmission fluid flush is needed!
We offer you hassle-free transmission fluid replacement in Houston TX.
### HOW OFTEN SHOULD I CHANGE MY TRANSMISSION FLUID?
Most manufacturers recommend transmission fluid flush and filter change every 30,000 to 60,000 and others 80 to 100k. The frequency with which you should change your vehicle’s transmission fluid depend on the vehicle’s specific make, model, quality of transmission, and transmission fluid quality. If your transmission fluid level is low you should take it in for service right away. Give us a call today if you need help figuring out when your next change is due and for best transmission fluid replacement Houston.

# Differential Repair & Service
## Differential Repair, My Transmission ExpertsDifferential Repair, My Transmission Experts**Differential Repair Services**
### Local, Trusted Mechanics in Houston, Katy, Kingwood & Montgomery TX
At My Transmission Experts, our techs are certified and specialize in differential transmission repairs. We have the experience, diagnostic equipment and technical know-how to diagnose and carry out differential repairs properly, effectively and quickly.
### HOW DIFFERENTIALS WORK
The differential has a few primary jobs:
* Directs the engine power to the wheels
* Acts as the final gear reduction in the vehicle, slowing down the rotational speed of the transmission one more time before it hits the wheels
* Transfers power evenly from the engine to all drive wheels and it varies the amount of torque.
### WHAT IS A DIFFERENTIAL?
A differential divides the engine torque allowing each wheel to spin at a different output speed.
The differential can be found on most vehicles, including many all-wheel-drive (full-time four-wheel-drive) vehicles. The all-wheel-drive vehicles need a differential between each set of drive wheels, and between the front and the back wheels as well, due to the front wheels traveling at a different distance during a turn.
Part-time four-wheel-drive systems do not have a differential between the front and rear wheels. However, they are joined together so that the front and rear wheels turn at the same constant speed. It is for this reason these vehicles become difficult to turn and operate on concrete when the four-wheel-drive system is engaged.
### DIFFERENTIAL SERVICE: WHY IS IT IMPORTANT?
Regular differential service is extremely important. It is cost effective to follow the manufacturer recommendation for differential service. With time, high operating temperatures can cause the  in the differential to break down and develop a gunk like texture which fails to lubricate the gears. Again, regular service of the fluid can prevent premature wear on the gears and can help reduce wear on drive-wheel tires.
### MAINTAINGING YOUR VEHICLE’S DIFFERENTIAL
Old differential fluid is removed and replaced with new lubricating fluid based on your vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations.
### WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO SERVICE A TRANSFER CASE?
The  is a unique gear box found in four-wheel and all-wheel-drive vehicles. It provides power from the engine to the front and rear drive axles. In all-wheel-drive vehicles, the transfer case helps to shift power from one drive axle to another, depending on traction conditions. When proper lubricant is in the transfer case it allows the gears to cool and turn smoothly. Servicing this fluid at the manufacturer’s specified intervals will help prevent damage caused by contaminated or broken-down lubricant.
### WHAT DOES THE SERVICE INCLUDE?
In the transfer case a special fluid lubricates, cools and cleans the gears in the transfer case. The old fluid is removed and replaced with new fluid that adapts to vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations. To avoid any major differential repair, differential needs to be service at proper intervals.
