As a part of Budget Brakes' commitment to its customers' automotive health and safety, this series of tips will teach Budget Brakes customers what to look for when considering whether or not to buy a used automobile.
Transmission repair or replacement is one of the most expensive automotive maladies. Doing a full check on the transmission can ensure that any obvious problems will become apparent before the purchase is made. First, Budget Brakes recommends referring to the owner's manual for directions on checking the transmission fluid. The fluid should be a shade of pink or red.
If the fluid is brown, black, or smells burnt, this can indicate internal transmission damage. Next, Budget Brakes recommends taking the car for a test drive. Pay particular attention to any whining noises during shifting as well as any delays or a sliding feel when shifting between gears. The transmission should firmly and noticeably engage each gear including park, reverse, and the first couple of gears.
Budget Brakes hopes every customer considering purchasing a used car follows these free tips from your helpful auto technicians at Budget Brakes.
