At Meta Mechanics, we pride ourselves on providing exceptional auto repair services to Range Rover Evoque owners in Dubai. Recently, we completed a transmission repair on a Range Rover Evoque that was experiencing several performance issues. The transmission is a vital component of any vehicle, and when it begins to malfunction, it can lead to a variety of driving problems, including poor acceleration, difficulty shifting gears, and strange noises.
During the repair process, our expert technicians identified several issues affecting the vehicle’s transmission and provided efficient solutions to restore its smooth and reliable performance.
Identified Issues:
- Transmission Fluid Leak
- Problem: Our team discovered that the transmission fluid was leaking from the transmission pan, causing a significant drop in fluid levels. Low transmission fluid can lead to overheating and inadequate lubrication, which can cause further damage to the transmission components.
- Solution: We replaced the damaged transmission pan seal and refilled the transmission fluid to the proper levels with high-quality OEM fluid. This resolved the leak and restored the proper lubrication, preventing further wear on the transmission components.
- Slipping Gears
- Problem: The vehicle was experiencing slipping gears, where the transmission would unexpectedly shift out of gear or hesitate when attempting to shift. This issue can cause rough driving and is usually a result of worn-out gears or low fluid levels.
- Solution: After inspecting the transmission system, we replaced the worn-out gears and ensured that the internal components were correctly aligned. We also conducted a fluid flush to remove any old, contaminated fluid, and replaced it with fresh OEM transmission fluid, improving shifting performance and preventing future slipping issues.
- Harsh or Rough Shifting
- Problem: The vehicle exhibited harsh shifting when moving between gears. This problem can arise from issues such as a malfunctioning solenoid, contaminated fluid, or problems with the transmission control module (TCM).
- Solution: We performed a complete diagnostic check of the transmission, identifying a faulty solenoid as the primary cause. After replacing the malfunctioning solenoid, we also recalibrated the Transmission Control Module (TCM) to ensure smooth gear transitions and eliminated harsh shifting.
- Transmission Overheating
- Problem: The transmission was overheating, which can result in permanent damage to the transmission components if left unaddressed. Overheating is often caused by low fluid levels, an inefficient cooling system, or excessive strain on the transmission.
- Solution: We identified a malfunctioning transmission cooler as the root cause of the overheating. After replacing the cooler, we also checked the cooling system to ensure it was functioning efficiently, preventing the transmission from overheating again in the future.
- Unusual Noises from the Transmission
- Problem: The vehicle was making strange grinding or whining noises when shifting gears. These noises often indicate that there are worn or damaged internal components, such as gears, bearings, or the torque converter.
- Solution: We performed a thorough inspection of the internal transmission components and discovered damaged bearings and a worn torque converter. After replacing these components with high-quality OEM parts, we eliminated the noises and restored smooth operation.
