At Meta Mechanics, we are dedicated to providing expert auto repair services to keep your vehicle in optimal condition. Recently, we completed a comprehensive transmission overhauling on a Range Rover Velar that was experiencing significant transmission performance issues. After a detailed inspection, we identified several underlying problems that were causing the transmission to malfunction. Here’s a breakdown of the issues we found and the solutions we provided:
Issues Found During Transmission Overhauling:
- Worn-Out Clutch Packs: The clutch packs inside the transmission had become excessively worn, leading to slipping and rough shifting. This reduced the transmission’s ability to engage gears smoothly, affecting overall performance.
Solution:
We replaced the worn-out clutch packs with high-quality OEM parts. This restored the smooth shifting and overall efficiency of the transmission system. - Damaged Valve Body: The valve body, responsible for controlling the flow of transmission fluid to various parts of the system, was found to be damaged. This caused erratic shifting and improper fluid distribution, resulting in poor transmission performance.
Solution:
We carefully inspected the valve body and replaced it with a new, factory-standard part. This restored proper fluid flow and improved the precision of gear shifting. - Faulty Solenoids: The transmission solenoids, which control the flow of transmission fluid to specific components, were found to be malfunctioning. This contributed to irregular gear changes and overheating of the transmission.
Solution:
We replaced the faulty solenoids, ensuring that fluid pressure and distribution were precisely controlled. This fixed the shifting issues and helped optimize transmission performance. - Contaminated Transmission Fluid: The transmission fluid had become contaminated with metal particles and debris due to wear and tear, leading to overheating and internal damage.
Solution:
We performed a complete fluid flush and replaced the contaminated fluid with fresh, high-quality transmission fluid. This ensured proper lubrication and cooling of the transmission components, improving overall system function. - Worn Torque Converter: The torque converter was showing signs of wear, which led to inefficient power transfer and additional strain on the transmission, contributing to slipping and overheating.
Solution:
We replaced the worn torque converter with a new one. This fixed the issue of power loss and restored the smooth operation of the transmission system.
