Automatic Transmission Fluid Exchange

Why Is It Important?

Transmission gears deliver power from the engine to the drive wheels, shifting automatically to provide the best power and efficiency for your driving speed.  A special transmission fluid cools and lubricates the gears.  Over time, this fluid degrades, and its lubricant qualities diminish.  Changing the fluid at the correct intervals can help prevent premature wear and damage to the transmission.


What Is The Service?
Removal of old transmission fluid and replace it with new, clean fluid of the grade recommended by Kia Motors America, or for all other makes, according to your vehicle's OEM specifications.


Automatic Transmission Drain & Fill
