Services
We specialize in transmission repair and services for cars, trucks and RVs, both foreign and domestic.
Your nearby Cottman center's technicians know all about the latest transmission control systems, and they know how to weed out those external problems that can seem like a bad transmission.
Which means, when you bring your all wheel drive transmission problem to your local Cottman center, you'll never pay for a new transmission unless you really need one.
That's our promise to you.
Should your check engine light come on, it is important that you have it diagnosed immediately.
A 44 transmission needs to be able to handle a lot more load than many two wheel drive transmissions.
The term "44" generally means four wheel drive.
It's based on the idea that the vehicle has four wheels and all four can provide power to drive the vehicle.
What sets 44 systems apart from all wheel drive is that 44 systems are selectable; that is, you can choose whether to operate them in two wheel drive or four wheel drive.
Generally the transmission is the same on 44 and regular two wheel drive systems.
Lately a lot of shops that never had much to do with automatic transmissions are suddenly advertising that they offer rebuilt transmissions.
How did they get into the business?
They are buying remanufactured transmissions (remans).
A reman is a factory remanufactured transmission.
It was rebuilt far away, in an assembly line setting.
Then, when your car needs a transmission, the shop calls and orders the rebuilt transmission, and shop's technicians simply replace the original, worn out transmission.
If you own a four wheel drive vehicle, or something that requires a power output, such as a tow truck, you're probably very familiar with what a transfer case is.
For the rest of you, a transfer case mounts directly behind the transmission, to redirect torque from the transmission to other systems.
In a four wheel drive, the transfer case redirects torque to the front and rear axles, to allow all four wheels to drive the vehicle.
On many vehicles, it's the device that allows you to choose whether you're in two wheel drive or four wheel drive.
To help reduce that heat, nearly every automatic transmission has a transmission cooler, usually mounted in one of the radiator tanks.
Hot transmission fluid flows into the transmission cooler, where it's surrounded by coolant.
That heat is absorbed by the coolant, where it'll eventually be released to the air passing over the radiator fins.
The cooled transmission fluid then returns to the transmission to keep the transmission operating at a safe temperature.
On most cars, that factory cooler provides enough heat transfer to protect the transmission.
