When Your Vehicle Is Asking for Attention
Your car has its own way of speaking up, especially when the transmission starts acting out. Before things get worse, it’s important to listen for changes in shifting, sounds, and response. Early care keeps you safe, protects your engine, and saves you from bigger repairs later. Common signs to look out for:
Strange whining, humming, or grinding sounds
This is caused by low or contaminated transmission fluid, damaged gears, failing bearings, a worn torque converter, misaligned gear sets, or a failing transmission pump, all of which can disrupt proper lubrication and gear engagement.
Delayed or rough shifting
This may be caused by degraded transmission fluid, clogged transmission filters, worn clutch packs or bands, a faulty shift solenoid, valve body problems, or issues with the transmission control module, these issues interfere with hydraulic pressure and timing during gear changes.
A burning smell during or after driving
This can indicate overheated or burnt transmission fluid, low fluid levels causing excessive friction, slipping clutch packs, a failing torque converter, or internal components overheating due to clogged filters or restricted fluid flow.
Fluid leaking underneath your car
This is caused by damaged transmission pan gaskets, cracked transmission pans, corroded fluid lines, leaking axle seals, or a failing front or rear transmission seal, all of which can allow transmission fluid to escape and lead to low fluid levels and transmission damage.

They where amazing , got me in and out for the holiday thank you Kevin
Great work. Three shops befrore this one. They found my problem in 30 min.
I experienced excellent service, I got my alternator fixed and now my cars running good. If I ever need repairs I’m coming back here.
I was referred to Art of Maintaince and finally used them. Couldn’t be happier. 1 1/2 in the shop . When I was looking to book a Taxi to go home, they called Lyft and I left within 10 minutes. My van is feels brand new and I didn’t feel raked over the coals like other shops I’ve visited. Took it in and had a diagnostis done and picked the repairs. I actually can’t wait until my next round of service in January and that says alot
I seriously thought my car was hopeless when i brought it to these folks. They fixed it up “right as rain” while i was on an extended weekend away and cost me far less than i was expecting. I couldnt be happier with my experience
I had a flat tire, so I Googled tire repair, and Art of Maintenance was close, so I dropped in. They took the tire, and within minutes had it repaired and I was on my way. Great professional team!
Would definitely recommend. Kevin was very friendly and knowledgeable of what the issue was with my truck. They had me back on the road in no time.
Art of Maintenance is the best! They have serviced my car many times from oil changes all the way to fixing my exhaust manifold and radiator. My 1999 Suzuki used to sound like a tractor and I could not believe how quiet it was after taking it to Art of Maintenance. They also provide very thorough vehicle reports via text message that include pictures and make keeping track of maintenance easy!
I used Art of Maintenance when my car for a diagnostic and repair. They fixed my car quickly and there were no surprises when the bill came. I would absolutely use them again.
Clean fast shop with a nifty SMS-based order and invoice system that lets you check which services you do or don’t want and authorize them without a phone call. Was able to book a morning appointment in 3 biz days and get my oil change/AC recharge done in 2 hours, car purred like a happy kitten with a tuna treat afterwards.
Very happy.
fast accurate service, they kept me informed every step of the way
