Frequently Asked Questions
What is a fluid exchange?
Due to the friction and heat within your vehicle, your transmission fluids and other fluids within your vehicle will begin to break down. Once this starts, you will find its performance degrades and won't perform as you expect it to. This will also lead to deposits that will impact the drivability of your car and damage your transmission, resulting in repairs that could cost you thousands of dollars. To prevent this, make sure you are performing fluid exchanges. A fluid exchange is a preventative procedure where you replace the existing fluid in your vehicle with new fluid.
How much does it cost to flush all car fluids?
Depending on the fluid you are looking to flush in your car, the price can vary. Prices for flushing your engine can start at $50, while transmission fluid flushes can cost anywhere from $100 to $200. Power steering fluid, antifreeze/coolant, and brake fluid flushes generally start around $60 but can increase due to the cost of replacing fluids. How frequently you should change these fluids varies depending on the type. Engine oil should typically be replaced every 6 months or 5,000 miles, while brake fluid should be changed every 2 years.
How often do you change transmission fluid?
The longer you drive your car, the more likely your transmission fluid is to begin breaking down. This can lead to issues that can require costly repairs, so you want to be sure you are replacing your transmission fluid regularly. We recommend changing your transmission fluid every 50,000 to 100,000 miles.
