External Diagnostic Tests

The St. Mary's AAMCO External Diagnostic Service is a systematic and comprehensive external evaluation of the overall performance and condition of your transmission.

• A trained mechanic will check the level and condition of your transmission fluid:
  • A low fluid level may indicate a leak.
  • Contaminated fluid has water or particles in the fluid.
  • Burnt fluid indicates damage from overheating.
  • Varnished fluid has been overheated repeatedly.
  • Normal fluid is reddish-brown and translucent, depending on transmission type, with no particular odor.
  • The mechanic will also check the level and condition of transfer case and differential fluid, where applicable.
• The mechanic takes your automobile on a road test, to experience first-hand any problems you have noticed, and to evaluate your automobile's performance.
• Your automobile will be placed on a lift to inspect the controls under the automobile for any possible cause of the problem external to the transmission.
• Finally, the mechanic will scan the computer for trouble codes*.

From these tests, the expert transmission mechanics at St. Mary's AAMCO auto repair shops can determine what type of problem you might have, and make a recommendation for whatever service is necessary. Our comprehensive approach to diagnosing the source of the problem is what sets St. Mary's AAMCO apart.
