Alan Doherty | Owner

I started working at Everett Transmission the day I turned sixteen in 1974. I started as a remover and installer of transmissions. Soon I got involved in the tear down procedures and then the rebuilding of the units. I personally have rebuilt over 20,000 transmissions. I have been the owner of Everett Transmission since 1994. Transmissions are not a job to me, they have been in my life day and night for 42 years. My hobbies revolve mostly around mechanical things such as motorcycles, go fast boats, ski mobiles, dirt bikes, Corvettes, and Porsches.

4 Tips for Keeping Your Transmission in Strong Health for Years to Come

by Everett Transmission & Auto Repair • 12 August 2025

Your vehicle’s transmission is responsible for delivering power from the engine to the wheels—making it one of the most critical components for smooth driving. Whether you drive a compact car or a heavy-duty truck, preserving your transmission can help your vehicle stay reliable for the long haul. With proper care and driving habits, you can keep your transmission performing at its best. Here are four tips for maintaining transmission health over the years. Check and Change Transmission Fluid Regularly Transmission fluid lubricates, cools, and powers the components inside your transmission. Over time, fluid can break down or become contaminated, reducing its effectiveness. Make it a habit to check your transmission fluid level and condition regularly. If the fluid is dark, burnt-smelling, or low, it’s time for a change or top-off. Follow your vehicle manufacturer’s maintenance schedule for fluid changes, and be sure to use the correct type of transmission fluid for your make and model. Avoid Overloading Your Vehicle Carrying loads that exceed your vehicle’s recommended capacity can put unnecessary strain on the transmission. The extra weight forces the transmission to work harder, generating excessive heat and increasing wear. Whether you're towing a trailer or hauling cargo, be mindful of your vehicle’s limits. Using your vehicle within its rated capacity helps prevent premature transmission wear. Take Action if You Notice Warning Signs Catching transmission problems early can save you from extensive repairs. Warning signs may include slipping gears, delayed shifting, strange noises, or fluid leaks. These problems often signal issues that can worsen quickly if left unaddressed. Prompt diagnostics and repairs can preserve the integrity of your transmission and prevent breakdowns. Always Come to a Complete Stop Before Shifting Between Drive/Reverse A damaging habit for an automatic transmission is shifting between drive and reverse while the vehicle is still moving. Doing this can cause significant damage to the transmission’s internal components. Always come to a complete stop before shifting into reverse or drive. Taking this simple precaution greatly reduces stress on your transmission system.
