Audi Transmission Service in Fremont – FAQs
There are differences among automotive service technicians, just as there are differences amongst chefs who specialize in preparing certain regional and geographical cuisines.

Our Audi service mechanics specialize in Audi: It's what they do, day in and day out. If you have questions about your Audi's 8-speed tiptronic, S tronic dual-clutch, or manual transmission system, reach out to a member of our team today. Until you do, here are a few answers to commonly asked questions we frequently receive.
When and How Often Should You Check Your Audi Transmission Fluid?
Our Audi service professionals recognize that for some drivers, oil is as far as they go when it comes to checking and maintaining their vehicle's engine fluids. If you've landed on this page, then you generally know that transmission fluid, whatever it is and does, is vital to your vehicle's engine life. Naturally, knowing when and how often to check your transmission fluid is equally important. We recommend that you check your transmission fluid once a month if the vehicle is new to you. Once you learn how often and how much your Audi transmission burns its transmission fluid based on your typical driving habits, you’ll know how often you should check your Audi’s transmission fluid level.
What happens if you let your Audi's transmission fluid run completely out? Your engine's gears won't spin. If your gears can't spin, your car won't move. But at this point, you'll need a wrecker to tow you to our Audi service center located at 949 North Elston Suite 1. So before you get to that point, we've prepared a list of things to be on the lookout for. If you notice any of these warning signs, schedule an Audi transmission service appointment ASAP:
Unusual noises during gear shifts
Hesitation during gear changes
Acceleration delay
Rough transmission shifts
Leaking transmission fluid
Illuminated check engine warning
What Causes Transmissions to Slip?
First, let’s define slip. When your transmission slips, after you’ve shifted gears from, say, park to drive, your transmission “slips” out of the gear you placed it in. It may slip from drive into neutral, which could be dangerous. Now that we’ve defined our term, let’s jump into possible reasons why.
So, what causes transmissions to slip? Your Audi’s transmission has a lot of moving parts. This fact makes it nearly impossible to determine the exact cause without our certified Audi experts performing an in-depth inspection of your vehicle. So if you notice your transmission slipping out of gear, contact us to schedule an appointment as soon as possible. Here are a few other general reasons your transmission may be slipping:
Low transmission fluid
Defective solenoid
Faulty transmission clutch
Damaged gears
What Color Is Audi Transmission Fluid?
Most Chicago drivers know transmission fluid is normally red. But did you know that a lighter red hue indicates newer fluid? Or that dark red transmission fluid means your transmission is in good condition? The color of your engine’s transmission fluid can reveal a ton of information about the state of your Audi’s transmission.
What to do if your transmission fluid is brown? If your vehicle’s transmission fluid happens to be brown, it indicates that oxidation (the addition of oxygen) has begun. Schedule a transmission appointment with our certified Audi service professionals in Chicago, IL right away.
If you notice your transmission fluid has become dark-brown, black, or pink, you should receive transmission service immediately. We recommend you refrain from driving your Audi until an Audi expert inspects it. Transmission fluid turns dark-brown or black once it becomes contaminated by too much oxygen (oxidation). Pink transmission fluid means that your transmission, coolant, or fluid cooler is damaged. Contact Audi service in Chicagoat (312) 628-4850. We’re located at 949 N Elston Ave. Chicago, IL 60642.
