Your engine and transmission are the backbone of your vehicle. When either one starts acting up, you’ll feel it, whether it’s a rough idle at a stoplight, delayed shifting when merging onto I-94, or warning lights glowing on the dashboard. At Five Point Auto Care in Romulus, MI, we provide transmission and engine services to keep your car running safely every day.

How Engines & Transmissions Work Together

The engine generates power. The transmission transfers that power to the wheels. Without one, the other can’t do its job. Think of them as a pair: The engine burns fuel to create motion and energy, and the transmission controls that power and controls your vehicle's speed.

When the engine struggles, the transmission often must work harder. When the transmission slips or fails to shift properly, the engine can overrev and wear down faster. That’s why staying up to date on maintenance for both systems is essential. If you recognize any of these symptoms, don’t wait and have the engine or transmission checked out by a certified mechanic:

• Knocking or ticking noises
• Rough idling or misfiring
• Poor fuel economy
• Smoke or unusual smells
• Loss of power or frequent stalling
• Delayed or rough shifting
• Slipping gears
• Fluid leaks under the vehicle
• Vibrations or clunking while accelerating
