The transmission is perhaps the most vital element in your commercial vehicle. Without it, mobility and the ability to haul or tow would be impossible. Consistent maintenance and necessary repairs are paramount for an efficiently operating transmission and clutch.

What is the Average Lifespan of a Truck Transmission?
On average, a well-maintained transmission can last 500,000 to 1,000,000 miles. Regular transmission fluid changes, inspections, and addressing issues promptly can significantly extend its lifespan. However, it's essential to monitor for signs of wear and tear, such as slipping gears or unusual noises, and seek professional attention when needed.
How Often Should I Get My Transmission Serviced?
A general guideline is to have your transmission serviced every 30,000 to 60,000 miles. However, heavy-duty trucks operating in more demanding conditions may benefit from frequent servicing. Routine transmission maintenance includes fluid changes, filter replacements, and inspections to detect and address issues before they become major problems.
