Transmission Repair Service in Frankfort, KY

Transmission Repair Service in Frankfort, KY

By keeping your vehicle’s transmission in good care, you’ll be doing yourself it large favor for its long-term performance. However, understanding what goes into maintaining a transmission can be tricky due to the different types requiring different maintenance routines. So, we’ll go over some basic information to help you get started, then feel free to contact our staff at Frankfort Toyota with any outstanding questions.

Transmission Types

Most vehicles you find at any dealership will come with one of three transmissions. Manual, automatic, and Continuously Variable Transmissions. While all three of these types are unique, the biggest difference comes between manual and the latter two. As you may imply from the name, manual transmissions require you to regulate them yourself, and thus require a greater degree of knowledge to operate. Automatic and Continuously Variable Transmissions don’t require any extra know-how to drive with, which is why most automobile buyers opt for vehicles that come with these transmissions as opposed to manual ones.

Maintaining Your Transmission

So, now that you’re aware of the different transmission types, the next step you should take is checking to see what kind your vehicle has. This is because each one requires distinct forms of routine maintenance. The most important factor is the amount of time you can spend on the roads of Frankfort before needing to stop in at our Service Department. For a manual transmission, it's best to have it serviced roughly every 30,000 to 60,000 miles. A Continuously Variable Transmission sits at a similar range at 30,000 to 50,000 miles, however it's the automatic type that sets itself apart here as they’re able to travel for 60,000 to 100,000. This is another reason behind why they are so commonly favored among many drivers.

Our Service Department

Our trained technicians are comfortable and experienced with all transmission types, so don’t hesitate to stop by our location with whatever component is inside your vehicle. Regardless of whether your hardware is suffering from faulty parts or low transmission fluid, we’ll be more than happy to diagnose it thoroughly to find the root cause of your issues. There’s nothing worse than experiencing jerkiness as you accelerate down Route 421, which is why your vehicle may need a fresh component if its current one is irreparable. In the rare event that that is the case though, you won’t need to panic, as our Parts Department will be at your full disposal!

If 10 stars were possible that’s what this would be, but 5 is all that’s available. No games, no gimmicks just straight forward business which I appreciate. Worked with “Tree” and I can’t say enough good things about him! He was respectful and exceptional across the board! Exceeded every expectation! Wonderful experience with “Tree” at Frankfort Toyota!

Joanie made buying a new car easy and painless. Coming from out of town, I didn't want to be at the dealer all day, she communicated fast and effectively. She had everything ready by the time I got there, took less than an hour at the dealer before I was on the road with my new car! Thank again for making this such a great experience.

Much of my decision-making happened remotely, and he went above and beyond to answer questions, share details, and make sure I was comfortable every step of the way. The process was straightforward, low-pressure, and well organized from start to finish, including after the sale was complete.

We were met at the front door by Eli S. at the Frankfort Toyota dealership, Eli showed us the cars we were interested in seeing and we took a drive. Eli was very knowledgeable while showing all the gadgets in the car and how to use the touch screen. He answered all our questions thoroughly. He is a top-notch employee and I would use him again for a future purchase. We left the dealership very satisfied and with a new car.

In 2018, I contacted a friend abou car shopping. I had reviewed Consumer Reports & decided to checkout a Toyota RAV4. She asked around &, though we live in Lexington, we were referred to Frankfort Toyota & Greg Woods. Greg was knowledgeable, patient, & kind as I made my decision to purchase the RAV4. A friend contacted me a few months ago, asking for the name of my "guy" at Frankfort Toyota. I was happy to refer her to Greg & she purchased a 2025 RAV4. Unfortunately, in October 2025, someone plowed into the passenger side of my car, both airbags deployed & my car was totalled. Of course, I contacted Greg, he continues to be courteous, knowledgeable & patient. I purchased a 2025 RAV4. If shopping for a Toyota, I recommend Greg Woods at Frankfort Toyota!
