Transmission Oil Change At Central Import In Toronto, ON

Transmission Oil Change At Central Import In Toronto, ON

Your vehicle’s transmission plays a big role in how your car drives. Whether you have a manual or automatic vehicle, regular transmission maintenance is key to keeping your car shifting smoothly and lasting longer. At Central Import in Toronto, ON, our trained technicians are here to help with expert transmission service, including full transmission oil changes.

What Does Transmission Fluid Do?

Your transmission fluid does more than just keep things moving. It:

  • Lubricates, cools and cleans the transmission system
  • Helps the gears shift smoothly
  • Protects important internal components from damage
  • Reduces the buildup of metal shavings and debris

Over time, transmission fluid can break down or get dirty, which makes it less effective. That’s why it’s important to change it according to your owner’s manual or manufacturer’s recommendations.

Signs You Need A Transmission Oil Change

Your vehicle will often give you signs that it’s time to check your transmission. Look out for:

  • Slipping gears
  • Rough or delayed shifting
  • Unusual noises when changing gears
  • A burning smell
  • Transmission warning light on your dashboard

If you notice any of these issues, it’s best to book a transmission service right away to avoid bigger (and more expensive) problems later on.

Our Process: Transmission Oil Change

At Central Import, our trained technicians follow a detailed process to take care of your vehicle. Here’s what’s involved in a typical transmission oil change:

  1. Remove the old transmission fluid carefully from the system
  2. Inspect and clean the transmission pan
  3. Replace the transmission filter (if needed)
  4. Refill the system with new automatic transmission fluid or gear oil (for manual transmissions)
  5. Test drive and check for proper shifting

By cleaning out the old fluid and debris, we help extend the life of your transmission and keep it performing well.

Our Customer Reviews

Terry and his team took stellar care of me. Super approachable, friendly and fast service, all while keeping the job as cost-efficient as possible. I feel lucky to have found such an awesome shop!

Hello Pluto Oct 10, 2025

Amazing customer service, very nice people

Nazanin Esmaeeli Oct 10, 2025

Central Auto Imports is my go-to place for car service. They’re always fair, efficient, and accommodating and the prices are reasonable. Desmond and Terry are excellent dependable, friendly and trustworthy. Highly recommend.

Kristina Noskova Oct 10, 2025

Brought C300 Benz to Central for the first time to have the front axle shafts replaced and they quoted me a fair price. When they began work they kept calling me back with bad news. Terry was empathetic and explained everything clearly and laid out all my options. Ultimately, what would have been $3200 job ended up costing close to $6000. It would have been even more but Terry, found ways to save money and offered me some discounts on labour if I chose to get all the issues fixed at the same time. Work was done fairly quickly considering I brought my car in around labour day weekend. Now my car is working just fine with no complaints. Even though I wasn't expecting to pay almost twice the price I was initially quoted, I still had a decent experience all things considered. I believe they were fair, honest and treated me with care. I would take my car back there again.

I had a great experience at Central Auto with my Mercedes ml350. The team was upfront, honest, and never tried to push extra services I didn’t need. They explained everything clearly and only recommended what was truly necessary for the car. It’s refreshing to find an auto shop that values honesty over upselling. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy service.
