Beyond the basic categories of manual and automatic transmissions, there are many types of transmission when you consider variations between models, engine sizes, and other factors.
It may not seem important to your day-to-day driving, but it’s good to know just what type of transmission your vehicle has when you will need to have it serviced. You can check your owner’s manual, which is likely to have information on your transmission, or you can look inside your driver’s door: There should be a sticker with details such as engine specifications, including a “TR” symbol with a number. With that number, the technicians at Tire Works can tell you just what type of transmission you have, or we can use your vehicle identification number (VIN) to identify it.
