Support for changing shift behavior
Spence & Frye offers transmission service for Pasadena drivers who notice a change in how their vehicle moves through the gears. Hesitation, a new vibration or a fluid leak is worth discussing in the context of the vehicle’s mileage and service history. Call with your year, model and engine to confirm the appropriate service visit.

Understand your service
Maintenance and diagnosis serve different needs
A scheduled fluid-service question is different from a complaint about slipping or delayed engagement. The transmission type, manufacturer guidance and existing symptoms help determine the right next step. A fluid change should not be assumed to fix a shifting problem, and service requirements vary between vehicles.
Concerns to discuss with our team
- A delay when selecting a gear
- Shifts that feel different from normal
- A vibration or hesitation during acceleration
- A leak or transmission-related dashboard message
Care for your vehicle
Describe when the change happens
Does the concern appear on the first drive of the day, after the vehicle warms up, or only while carrying a load? These details can help frame the assessment. For trucks used around Pasadena for towing or hauling, include how often they work under load and bring any previous transmission-service records.
