What Does Transmission Repair Entail?
The transmission functions to direct power from the engine block to the driveshaft. Because of its numerous moving parts, a transmission can’t sustain more wear and tear than most other components on your car due to friction and heat. The most common indicator of transmission failure is a transmission fluid leak. When this happens you’ll notice a puddle of red colored liquid underneath your vehicle. Another sign of transmission problems include noises such as buzzing, whining or humming noises. If your transmission overheats due to low fluid or fluid breakdown, you’ll notice a burning smell emanating from your car. If you are experiencing any of these transmission trouble signs, it’s a good idea to get it inspected by a skilled mechanic.
Transmission Flush

The Transmission Controls the Gear Shift
One of the best methods for keeping your import car’s transmission running smoothly is a transmission flush service. Different from a normal fluid change, a fluid flush will actually clean out your transmission before adding new fluid. Using specialized machines, the old fluid is completely removed. After which, a cleaning solution is pumped through the transmission to remove any leftover residue or blockages. The vehicle is then filled with brand new transmission fluid.

A Transmission Flush is An Exclusive Transmission Service We Offer That Helps Clear Buildup in Your Fluid Tanks
Why Get a Flush Service?
Most auto shops only provide fluid changes. This is when the transmission fluid is simply drained into a pan and the transmission refilled with new fluid. This does not completely remove the fluid. In fact, about 60% of the old transmission fluid can remain after a fluid change. This old fluid will mix with the newer fluid. Here at European Plus, we want your imported and European cars to run the best they can, which is why we offer a transmission flush to fully clean out your system instead of just a normal fluid change service that won’t remove buildup. This will help to prevent clogs in the drains and future damages, providing you with a smoother gear shifting experience.
The transmission is one of the hardest working parts of your car. It’s moving parts can wear down over time from heat, friction and contaminants. Changing the transmission fluid regularly can help keep it working properly and improve the performance of your import car. Our ASE certified mechanics provide transmission service in Hopewell and Pennington, NJ such as a transmission flush for your import car.

CV Joints
CV Joint Repair Auto Service

Call Our Transmission Service Experts For CV Joint Repair Today!
The CV joint plays a critical role in transferring the change made by the gearshift to the wheels. Basically, whenever a driver increases or decreases their speed, the power of the vehicle is transferred from the transmission and differential to the CV joints, which powers the tires to move. CV joints are the direct link from the engine to the wheels, so they receive high levels of stress and strain, wearing down faster than other parts of your vehicle. If you are needing CV joint repair or transmission service in Hopewell and Pennington, NJ for your European import car, call European Plus today at 609-737-7226.
Signs of CV Joint Damage

The CV Joint Is Located Under the Car By Your Tires
CV joints are located under your car near your front wheels and have an odd look about it, kind of like an accordion. It’s also very important to your suspension, as it helps your car to turn corners, and helps your wheels move from side to side and up and down. If your CV joint begins to leak fluid or crack then it can cause you several problems. It can cause your car to make loud clicking noises when turning, produce grease on the inside edge of the tires which makes it harder to make turns, or have excessive vibration when driving.
- Protect Rubber Boot Cracks: While CV joints are extremely strong and last over 300,000 miles, the protective boot (the thing that looks like an accordion) can crack, spilling the grease it has inside and allowing road debris and dirt to enter it. With no lubrication for the CV joint, it disintegrates from corrosion.
- Loud Noises: Popping, clicking, or grinding noises whenever your make a turn are indications or a badly worn out CV joint.
- Greasy Tires: Noticeable when the CV joint is severely damaged, you will see dark spots of grease splatters on your wheels and the underside of the car.
Differential
Differential Auto Repair Service

We Provide Differential Replacement and Repairs As Part of Our Transmission Service
If an engine creates the power to generate a car, and the transmission transfers the engine’s power to the rest of the car to make it move, then differentials spin the wheels of the car to keep it in motion. Your differential acts as a final gear in your car by helping your vehicle’s wheels rotate at different speeds and the differential is how your wheels get power in order to move your vehicle. If you are noticing tire damage, having trouble controlling your car, or hearing grinding noises, bring your European import car into the European Plus shop in Hopewell and Pennington, NJ for transmission service involving differential repair. Call us at 609-737-7226 to book an appointment.
Signs You Need Differential Replacement

The Differential Helps The Car’s Wheels Move
When your car is taking a turn, your outside wheels spin faster than the wheels on the inside of your vehicle because they have more ground to cover in the same amount of time as your inside wheels. Your vehicle’s wheels spin at different speeds, especially when you go around a corner or a turn. Your vehicle’s wheels would be forced to rotate at the exact speed if your car did not have a differential. Several things like fluid leaks or a fluid that hasn’t been changed in a long time, wear and tear or abuse of your car could be ruining your differential or making it malfunction, indicating you need transmission service involving differential replacement.
- Vehicle Feels Low or Dragging: If you feel like your tire pressure is low, your car is lower than before, of that it is sluggish when you are driving at low speeds, these are all signs of a failing differential.
- Clunking Noise: A severe sign of differential damage, this is when the axle gets shifted around whenever you accelerate, and especially when you are just driving at a constant speed.
- Whistling Noise: Difficult to hear, this is often the first sign of differential trouble, as the axle where the differential sits is not lubricated and causing that whining noise.
- Tire Tread: Whenever you turn a turn a corner differentials are supposed to readjust the speeds of the wheels to prevent them from getting damaged. A failing differential won’t do that, leading to worn down tires.
