BEST place - COMPLETE Transmission service AKLND?

michael.benn, Jun 25, 3:39am
Where in Auckland can I get the best complete transmission service (flush, new filter, the works) for a decent price and a very good job! Want to get my Accord's transmission done, asap.

Otahuhu Automatics.

Any more!

I'm trying to extend the lifespan of my Accord's automatic gearbox.

-It's been acting up a bit lately.

I've had it (the accord) since end of march and this is the first time it's done this sort of thing; I'm assuming the transmission needs a good flush at the very least.

Apparently we're not allowed to use tinyurl links. Yep, you better believe it. So here's the post they deleted, without a tinyurl. You'd think they'd have better things to do, but apparently not.

Checked my fluid . it's a brownish color. Apparently not good.

Tinyurl's have always been banned as they are considered a security risk (you don't know what the link is until you click on it and spammers could use them to hide the real link). Hence them banned.

I'll be taking my car here-

They seem to know what they're doing and they're in Henderson, not too far from Glen Eden.

If anyone has heard good or bad things about them, do tell.

+1 for Otahuhu. Auto

Just had a full flush and so on - $280 or so. Car goes a LOT better! Never had it done - just topped up the fluid. Worth the $. Am happy.

Should I still get a flush as well! =S

What does a general automatic transmission service contain!

They're not far from unitec, is all.

When unsure about tinyurls, put preview. before. IE preview.tinyurl.com/hyarr

I know how to but if you read it correctly that is trademes point of view, perhaps think first. Hence the term "as they are", meaning not me. Trademe make the rules not the members and that is how trademe sees it. You and me know how to, not to mention other similar services like tinyurl but not everyone is clued up which is why trademe place a generic ban on the sort of links.

Anyone want to comment on the actual thread.

Got it done at Mt Albert Automotive - Guys were brilliant there, car is driving a hell of a lot nicer. Top notch. Cost was $249 GST Inclusive.

So no more problems with it shifting up and down now.

michael.benn, Jun 30, 4:45am
It does still kick down after changing up every so often, but the changes themselves are way smoother, and it doesn't feel like it's straining anymore.

michael.benn, Jun 30, 4:45am
It's a much smoother drive.
