Drive train work is one of this shop's specialties — transmission and differential repairs and maintenance that keep it dependable, rather than waiting to replace it.
Drive train work is one of the things this shop is genuinely known for. It is skilled diagnostic work — telling a bearing from a gear, a clutch problem from a shift-control problem — and it is the kind of job a lot of shops would rather hand off than take on.
That matters to what it costs you, because regular service on a drive train pays for itself more obviously than almost anything else. A differential that gets its fluid changed on schedule and gets looked at when it starts to whine is a repair. The same differential left until it lets go on the freeway is a tow, a rebuild, and a week of lost revenue.
So our emphasis is repairs and maintenance — keeping what you already have dependable — rather than defaulting to replacement. We work on manual and automatic heavy-duty transmissions and on drive axles and differentials.
Call For Service · 619·561·5317 ↗Urgent enough to get looked at now rather than next month. A whine is usually bearing or gear wear, and caught early it is often a bearing and a seal. Left alone it takes the gears with it and becomes a far larger bill.
We work on them. The point of this service is keeping your drive train dependable, so repair and maintenance come first — replacement is the answer when the numbers say so, not the default.
It varies by unit, by duty cycle and by what the manufacturer specifies — a truck pulling heavy in the hills is on a shorter interval than one running flat highway miles. Tell us how the truck works and we will set the schedule against the manufacturer's spec.
The shop is on Riverside Drive in Lakeside, so the tow is short from most of East County — and a short tow is real money on a truck that will not roll. We take work from across San Diego County.
