Transmission fluid should generally be changed every 48,000 to 80,000 kilometers unless your vehicle is driven in severe conditions, which may require more frequent service.
Most modern automatic transmissions utilize synthetic fluid that might require less frequent replacement. Several manufacturers recommend changes at intervals reaching 160,000 kilometers with normal driving habits.
Nevertheless, we strongly advise regular transmission fluid inspections, since driving conditions can substantially impact fluid longevity. Manual transmission service typically becomes necessary between 48,000 and 96,000 kilometers.
For precise maintenance timing specific to your vehicle, consult your owner's manual or contact us directly—we'll help determine the appropriate service schedule for all your automotive maintenance needs.

Real Stories in Thornhill, ON
"The staff at MR automotive are very professional and honest. When Bobby told me my air conditioning would be a little more expensive to fix due to the previous owner crazy gluing all of the lines together - I was happy to understand the situation instead of just being presented with a huge bill to replace everything. This isn't the type of shop where you'll be told to replace things prematurely or without proper explanation and proof - which is quite hard to find these days!"

"MR Automotive is full of people who know their stuff but it's also great for people who aren't car-savvy (like me!) I trust Bobby & David to do a great job every time, they never sell me on anything I don't need, but make sure I at least understand what's going on. Thankful to have a mechanic I know and love."
