In a transmission flush, a machine is used to drain all the transmission fluid from your vehicle, clearing the torque converter and cooler lines of grime and contaminants that can lead to transmission problems. During this process, a special solution is run through the lines until they are cleaned, and afterward, new transmission fluid is pumped into the transmission system. The experts at Cincinnati's Northgate Transmissions strongly recommend that you bring in your vehicle for regular transmission flushes, and here's why:

• Costly Transmission Replacement Can Be Avoided: Replacing your vehicle's transmission can represent a significant financial investment. By removing contaminants in the transmission fluid that can damage the system, a transmission flush is an excellent preventative measure that will help you extend the life of your transmission.
• Regular Flushes Can Prevent You From Getting Stranded: If your vehicle is running on old transmission fluid that needs to be changed, this could cause your vehicle to shut down. If a shutdown happens at an inopportune time, it could leave you stranded.
• Your Vehicle Will Function More Efficiently: Old transmission fluid can cause your vehicle to function less efficiently. A flush will clean out the system and restore fuel efficiency to the level it was at when your vehicle was new.
