- Transmission ServiceSince the brand was first established in 1933, Nissan has been responsible for creating a variety of popular vehicles for motorists all over the world. Known for their innovative style, cutting-edge performance, and electrical vehicles, the brand has been responsible for popular models such as the Infiniti, Altima, and Maxima. Each vehicle that comes out of their facility is meticulously crafted to properly represent what the brand is all about. But because of this particular approach to auto manufacturing, a Nissan vehicle can’t go through a regular transmission service. That’s where we can help.
- Transmission RepairManual transmission, standard transmission, or stick shift: these are three different names for the same type of drivetrain. For many car enthusiasts, there’s nothing better than shifting gears and being an integral part of the driving experience. However, problems can arise, and before you know it, you’re at a repair shop needing a manual transmission repair. If you live in Hartford, CT, or the surrounding area, there’s only one name you need to remember when it comes to your manual transmission repair – Capitol Transmission. If you’re having a rough time shifting or feel your car slipping out of gear, it’s time to see the under-car experts. Leave the headaches and costly repairs of a dealership behind. Our family-owned business puts the customer first, not the bottom line. We promise to only make the necessary repairs to your transmission with quality parts and fluids that won’t break the bank. We’re here to make sure you’re getting the best performance out of your car every single mile. Don’t let a manual transmission repair sideline your life. Let the transmission experts at Capitol Transmission put you back behind the wheel where you belong!
- Transmission Fluid ServiceOver time, transmission fluid collects foreign particles that can cause your transmission to generate more friction and heat. Eventually, this amounts to sludge build-up that interferes with the performance of your transmission. A transmission flush removes old automatic transmission fluid, grime, and sludge from your car’s manual transmission and replaces it with fresh fluid. The transmission specialists at Capitol Transmission in Hartford, CT, know the importance of a transmission flush and are here to help. A proper transmission flush helps maximize the lifespan and performance of your automatic transmission. More importantly, it’s preventative maintenance that can save you money and headaches down the road. A manual transmission is one of the more expensive parts to replace, and who wants to do that? Stop in for an inspection, and our highly trained professionals will analyze your transmission fluid and advise you on whether a transmission flush is necessary or not.
- Transmission ReplacementCame across this business on Yelp after searching far and wide in the area for auto shops that provide great service and priced reasonably, with no sacrifice to quality. Needed my car towed for a transmission replacement, and Paul was very accommodating and informative from start to finish. The job was completed quickly and Paul even went so far to replace other worn out parts at no charge. Would recommend this shop to any and everyone going forward. Only bad thing I can say is rating them 10 stars is not an option.
- Clutch Service/RepairAnyone who drives a car with a manual transmission knows the importance of a clutch. With every gear shift comes a press of the clutch while releasing the gas. So, what exactly does a clutch do? It connects your car’s engine to the transmission. Pressing your clutch separates the transmission from the engine and allows the vehicle to stop without stalling. Sounds simple, but many parts make up a clutch, and over time, the parts can wear out. Variables like terrain, driving style, and frequency of driving all factor into the life of your clutch. How do you know if you need a clutch repair? If you experience a high rev of the engine with poor or no acceleration, a burning smell, a spongy or hard pedal feel, it’s time to make an appointment. Contact the transmission experts at Capitol Transmission. Our mechanics are highly trained in clutch repair and replacement and will have you back on the streets of Hartford in no time.
- Differential Service/RepairA differential may not be a car part you’re familiar with, but it’s crucial to the safety and stability of your vehicle. As part of your vehicle’s powertrain, the differential allows two wheels to turn at different speeds. Front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive, all-wheel drive, four-wheel drive, all vehicles have a differential. It makes turning your car smoother, more stable, and safe. If you start experiencing a whining noise, tire damage, difficulty handling, vibrations, or gear grinding, it may be time for a differential repair or rebuild. That also means it’s time to turn to the trusted professionals at Capitol Transmissions. Our team has helped drivers in the Hartford, CT, area repair, replace, and even upgrade differentials for over 80 years. When it comes to differential repair and rebuild, our certified mechanics are the best in the business.
