Diagnostic Tablet on engine transmission sensor

Our Twin Falls drivers have been experiencing issues with their transmissions and there are a few things that we here at Craig's Automotive Muffler & Performance feel are important to know so that you are more comfortable and confident if you are, indeed experiencing a transmission problem of any kind. First, if you drive a vehicle manufactured in the past few decades, there’s a good chance your transmission has a variety of sensors attached to it which monitors all kinds of things - fluid pressure, vehicle speed, temperature, air intake at the engine, and so on.  The first thing to check is your Transmission Sensor, which is a much more affordable fix than replacing your transmission!
