    When it comes to transmissions, your fluid level is essential. Too much or too little fluid can affect pressure, cooling abilities, and lubrication. In order to best care for your vehicle, it's important to know what to look for, so from our shop here at Ray & Roy's Repair, Inc. here are a few tips.

  • Choosing the Right Fluid for Your Transmission
