At Milex Complete Auto Care – Mr. Transmission of Bradenton, it is simple to keep your vehicle road ready. We offer a free performance check to motorists in Bradenton, Samoset, Memphis, and the surrounding areas. When you bring your vehicle in for a free performance check, our highly skilled car repair mechanics will assess your vehicle. We’ll use that information to help you make an informed decision about what kind of services and repairs you may need. Our performance check is designed to catch issues before they become serious – and expensive.

To start, we’ll have a look at your transmission fluid. The fluid is often the first place a technician can identify transmission problems, from regular wear to more severe damage. If your transmission is in proper condition, its fluid will be red and clear. Transmission fluid that is discolored or has an unpleasant odor may indicate the need for a closer inspection.

Next, we’ll perform a road test. This involves two separate steps: the stationary test and the driving test. We take this opportunity to check your vehicle for slipping noises, unusual shifting, and late or early shift patterns. By observing your vehicle in both idle and active states, we’re able to provide you with a more accurate diagnosis.

Our last step before making any final recommendations is an inspection while your car is on one of our lifts. Putting your car on a lift gives us a look at the underside of your car to thoroughly inspect more major components that may need replacement or repair. During a bay inspection, your car repair technician will check for the following:

Our last step before making any final recommendations is to check for diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) from your vehicle’s onboard computer system. Your vehicle’s computer system is constantly monitoring vehicle performance for any issues. If you notice a light on your dashboard, it means your vehicle’s computer has identified an issue that needs attention. A light on your dashboard alerts you to the problem, but running a diagnostic scan to retrieve trouble codes is the only way to know exactly what’s going on.
After completing our inspection, we’ll provide you with a report of the repair services you may need, along with an estimate. If the results of your performance check suggest an internal problem with your transmission, we recommend moving forward with a full internal inspection from our team of mechanics.


Preventative maintenance helps you stop transmission trouble in its tracks by replacing your vehicle’s transmission fluid and filter.

Your transmission requires repairs to the exterior. This service does not involve removal and disassembly of the transmission.

If your transmission is leaking but has no other internal problems, our repair team will remove the transmission to replace all of its leaking external seals.

If we’ve determined that your transmission requires an internal inspection, we will remove the transmission and disassemble it to determine which of its component parts needs attention and replacement. We’ll only perform this service if the performance check shows it’s absolutely necessary, and we’ll only replace the necessary parts to get your transmission working properly. Your repair technician will only make repairs upon your approval. Once our work is completed, your transmission will be reinstalled.
