Transmission fluid is the life blood of your transmission
Transmission fluid/filter change
by certified professionals
At O’Neill’s, we use all OE manufacturer fluids. Three things that make transmission work smooth: fluid, vehicle software, and friction component. It is critical to use the manufacturer fluid. Generally, a transmission service replaces about 1/3 to 1/2 of the fluid inside the transmission, which is adequate for a regularly-maintained transmission. For more severe instances you may consider a transmission flush.
A transmission flush is intended to replace nearly 100% of the fluid in your transmission. It requires a specialized machine that pumps new fluid through the transmission’s lube and cooler circuit, replacing the old fluid.
If the transmission needs to be flushed we remove the cooler line hoses to remove the old fluid. The transmission is already a hydraulic pump. So we use the transmission to pump the old fluid out while filling it with new fluid.
A word of caution: these flush machines do not require replacing the transmission filter in order to exchange the fluid. If you elect to have the transmission flushed, we will have the filter replaced as well, provided the filter is accessible. Some transmissions, like those used in most Hondas, are not accessible and cannot be replaced without disassembling the transmission.
Your decision to consider a regular service or fluid exchange can be determined by the condition of your transmission fluid.

I have complete trust in O’Neill’s. Twice this year I have had major repairs done on my two Honda Odyssey mini-vans. One van needed a tranny replacement, and the other van needed a lot of front-end work. Both times I have found all of the guys – front office and techs – to be very considerate and honest, especially this last time when they could have easily recommended a couple thousand more in repairs but explained that the fears I had were not warranted. The struts were fine for quite a few more miles, and it was not time to work on the tranny on this one. Another shop in town had recommended these repairs when I had some tire work done… I knew I could trust O’Neill’s and am glad I can. Both vans run beautifully, and I know they are in good hands for any future needs.

Wow! Needed a new transmission. They installed a re-manufactured unit — and to boot replaced the water filter, serpentine belt, and another belt without any additional charge! I have never experienced that before!

Great customer service and saved me a bunch of money! I was so pleased with the service I received. Tedd kept me aware of what was going on and got my car in quickly for needed service. Shaun diagnosed the problem quickly and found a way to fix it without having to buy an entire harness ($600 + labor). The total bill was under $300. !t was a great experience and I will return the next time I need something done. I was glad to hear that they provide more than just transmission repairs!
