So how do you know if you have a problem with your transmission? One way to know that your transmission needs to be looked at is if you notice transmission slippage. This may feel like a change in gear while you are driving for no apparent reason. It could also feel like your car is struggling or underpowered. If you notice any of these, or if your car starts to make a whining noise, it’s time to have your transmission looked at!

You may also want to call Terry’s Automotive and Qwik Lube if you notice delayed engagement with your vehicle. After shifting out of park and in to drive, there should be a smooth transition. If there is a long pause after shifting out of park and your vehicle is not moving forward as it should, there could be a problem. Figure out the problem quickly and bring your vehicle into a trusted expert!

Call Terry’s Automotive for all of your auto repair needs!

Terry's Automotive & Qwik Lube in Gainesville now provides the Jasper Engines re-manufactured Toyota A750E (RWD) and A750F (4WD) transmissions. These transmissions are available for the 2004-2011 Toyota Tundra, Sequoia, Tacoma, 4 Runner, and FJ Cruiser transmission replacements

Each JASPER re-manufactured Toyota A750E and A750F transmission is 100% dynamometer tested using a state of the art dyno software package eliminating the chance of shifting concerns and ensures a quality product for the customer.  All wear areas of the valve body are reamed to oversize, where applicable, and vacuum-tested to restore the hydraulic integrity of the unit reducing the chance of low fluid pressure within the transmission, causing slipped clutches.

In addition to the value-added quality re-manufacturing steps to provide a perfect product, great care is taken to ensure each A750E and A750F transmission replacement option can stand up to the rigors of everyday life.  Each transmission receives 100% new friction plates from the OE manufacturer to retain shift quality and durability. Converter linings are 100% replaced to reduce lock-up shudder and solenoids are 100% tested to verify proper operation before they are installed in the transmission.

The JASPER re-manufactured Toyota A750E and A750F transmission is covered by a three-year, 100,000 mile, nationwide parts and labor warranty.  Talk to our team at Terry's Automotive & Qwik Lube in Gainesville about your specific needs and any transmission replacement questions you might have for your Toyota, we'd be happy to answer them for you and see if a JASPER re-manufactured transmission is right for you.
