What Is An Automatic Transmission?

2010-04-30T08:09:00.000-07:00

There are two basic types of automatic transmission; the front wheel drive version called a Transaxle because it incorporates a differential and a rear wheel drive version called a Transmission that does not.

Most people refer to the transaxle as a transmission it just needs to be pointed out the major difference between the two.

Just like that of a manual transmission, the automatic transmission's primary job is to allow the engine to operate in its narrow range of speeds while providing a wide range of output speeds. An automatic transmission locks and unlocks different sets of gears to the output shaft to achieve the various gear ratios. In an automatic transmission; the same set of gears produces all of the different gear ratios. The planetary gearset is the device that makes this possible in an automatic transmission.

An important part of transmission diagnosis is to make sure the engine operates properly. If the engine performances is incorrect, the transmission will receive the wrong information. Often customers think they have a transmission problem and in fact it is an engine problem. So before you make any attempt to diagnose a transmission problem, be sure the engine is operating properly.

Most of the time there have been stories told about how mechanics and different services are different for women than it is for men. I am in Greensboro from Tennessee and I did not know anyone. My transmission went out on my vehicle so I took it to Cottman's and received a warm welcome and great service from Mgr. Jody. He did not treat me as if I were an out of towner that he could make a quick buck off but as if I was just as important to him as anyone else. He even fixed another problem after the warranty had expired. I will recommend him to anyone, as a matter of fact I did just that to several of my co-workers. Thank you Jody for your hospitality.
