Transmission problems — harsh shifting, slipping, delayed engagement — get worse when ignored. For Meadowdale drivers between Lynnwood and the Edmonds waterfront, Tom's B&M Auto has serviced automatic, manual, and CVT transmissions since 1985. We use the vehicle-specific transmission fluid your manufacturer requires, not a universal substitute that accelerates wear. Written estimate before any work begins.
We check transmission fluid color, smell, and condition; inspect the pan for metal particles; road-test to evaluate shift quality; and check for external leaks at the pan gasket, cooler lines, and axle seals.
We quote the correct fluid type and quantity for your specific transmission — not a generic ATF. CVT, DSG, and sealed automatic transmissions each require different fluid; we match to manufacturer specification.
Post-service road test to verify shift quality. Transmission fluid services completed same day. Major repairs quoted after diagnosis with a written estimate.

Using the wrong transmission fluid is one of the most common causes of premature transmission failure. Toyota WS and T-IV ATF are not interchangeable. Nissan NS-3 CVT fluid cannot be replaced with a universal CVT fluid. We stock manufacturer-specified fluids for all major makes and never substitute.
We see CVT failures regularly on Nissan and Subaru vehicles where the fluid was never changed or changed with the wrong product. CVTs are expensive to replace — a $120 fluid service at 30,000-mile intervals prevents a $4,000+ replacement. We'll tell you where your vehicle stands.
Manufacturer-specified ATF, CVT, or DSG fluid — not universal substitutes.
Nissan, Subaru, Honda CVT fluid service with correct NS-3, ATF HP, or HCF-2.
Most transmission fluid services completed same day.
Transmission service includes fluid condition check, metal particle inspection, leak check, road test for shift quality, drain and refill with manufacturer-specified fluid. CVT service uses correct brand-specific fluid. Major transmission repairs diagnosed with written estimate before any work begins.
