Kings Transmission

I sincerely regret buying my car from the dealership I did. The car is decent enough for the price I paid, but I’ll never use the dealership’s mechanics again. Just shy of a month after driving my pre-owned vehicle off the lot, the check engine light came on. The car started shaking so violently I could barely steer myself off the road.

Naturally I took it into the dealership and raised heck. There is no reason a recently bought commuter car should be malfunctioning only a month after it supposedly went through a thorough inspection! The dealership replaced the malfunctioning parts for free, but ever since that experience when I have a problem with my car I take it to King’s Transmission repair Lynnwood, which is conveniently near my office.

When I bought my first car, I had no idea what to do about maintenance. All I knew was to put gas in the car. As far as everything else I was at a total loss for knowledge. I didn’t know where to go or what to do about anything.

So when my car went out on me, on the way to work, I had no idea what to do. I called my dad, explained the noise that it made. He said that it sounded like the transmission went out.  It was a good thing that I was already in Lynnwood; I got it towed to Lynnwood Automatic Transmission Repair Shop. The people there were extremely nice and didn’t make me feel like a complete idiot. I was very lucky.

Were you in town for last month’s extreme Thanksgiving weather? The temperature dropped to a frigid 14 degrees in some areas leaving roads, walkways and cars coated with dangerous ice. In several areas entire streets were blocked off by sideways busses and abandoned vehicles. Navigating roadways in the Seattle Metro area became as treacherous as trying to cross the Arctic Circle.

And now they say more cold is on the way. What can you do to get ready for more frozen roads? Well, most people will tell you to get chains but those won’t even help in areas where the ice is thicker. One thing you can do to keep your vehicle safe is to have the transmission checked and serviced for optimum functionality in extreme weather situations like the one we saw over Thanksgiving. If you’re concerned about getting around for the rest of the winter then give yourself the peace of mind you get when you know your car is operating efficiently and safely. Automatic transmission repair, Lynnwood is ready to help you get your transmission working better than ever for the cold weeks ahead.

With the prevalence of automatic transmissions in the US, it’s no surprise that an increasing number of motorists are leaving the stick shift to behind. But in many European countries, manuals are ubiquitous and automatics are a luxury hard to come by. Spending most of my childhood in Eastern Europe, I learned to drive in a manual; they are the only cars I feel comfortable behind the wheel of.

I recently relocated to Lynnwood, WA, and the brutal traffic on I-5 has begun to take its toll on my transmissions. The other day I noticed it was catching between third and fourth, so I decided to take it in for some Lynnwood manual transmission repair. Typically I don’t have good luck with mechanics, but the staff here was incredibly helpful and even gave me some pointers for keeping the transmission running smoothly.
