Transmission Diagnostics


We combine more than six decades of hands-on experience with modern transmission diagnostic tools to accurately identify problems that plague vehicles. Our detailed approach includes computer assisted diagnostic tools, visual inspections, and other testing techniques that will paint a clear picture of what’s going on with your car.

Transmission Drive Testing


Another method of identifying complex transmission problems is by performing a drive test, if the condition of the vehicle allows. During a drive test we can try and replicate your chief complaint to best understand the problem. Of course, if the transmission issue is so drastic that the vehicle is not able to be driven, we have other methods of transmission diagnostics, as discussed above, that will ensure we can properly identify the issue at hand.

Preventative Transmission Maintenance


If you wish to keep your transmission healthy for miles to come, do not neglect to provide it with routine transmission maintenance. The Keizer Transmission team is capable of providing scheduled transmission service in Salem for most automatic makes and models. This generally includes draining the transmission fluid, removing and cleaning the transmission pan, replacing or cleaning the transmission filter, reinstalling the pan with a fresh gasket and filling the unit with new transmission fluid. This service is often required every 30,000 to 40,000 miles, but your vehicle may differ. Check your owner’s manual to see when it is due for service or contact our team and we can help you find the answer.

Transmission maintenance and diagnostics will help ensure your vehicle continues to shift smoothly for years to come. We encourage you to give Keizer Transmission a call at (503) 512-0903 when your vehicle’s gearbox acts up or is due for transmission maintenance in Salem. We will handle your vehicle’s needs and ensure that it is safe and reliable to drive when it leaves our local transmission shop.
