While clutch and transmission designs vary depending on your truck and how you use it, eventually, they all wear and break down. Having a preventative maintenance plan that includes your transmission service and adjustment according to the manufacturer's specifications will keep your truck running safe and secure.
Clutch and transmission life can differ due to several factors, including driving conditions, and how much weight you haul. Changes in clutch pedal pressure, unusual noises when you depress the clutch, difficulty shifting, temporary loss of acceleration, or slipping are symptoms of a clutch or transmission problem that needs immediate attention.
Correctly diagnosing and repairing transmission issues requires experience and the right tools. For example, sometimes a transmission will leak fluid but have no other driveability issues. When this happens, you can often avoid rebuilding the entire transmission by removing it and replacing external seals and selected components. However, in other cases, worn internal parts are damaged, and a rebuild of the unit is required.
Signs that your transmission needs service
Transmission and clutch life can vary depending on things like traffic, haul weight, and towing frequency. We can help diagnose problems before your vehicle becomes dangerous to drive.
Unusual noises when pressing the clutch pedal
If you notice noise from your clutch when you release or press the clutch pedal, chances are your pilot, release, or throw-out bearings are failing and will need to be replaced.
Difficulty shifting gears, or into reverse.
Difficulty shifting is likely caused by the clutch disc not moving away from the spinning flywheel. The culprit is more often than not the hydraulic system that operates the clutch, which could be leaking.
Whether your transmission needs an adjustment, repair, or total rebuild, it's critical to take your truck to a shop that you can trust.

I'm very satisfied with the work done on F250 brake system here. My brakes were a disaster, and since I was traveling through Denver with my slide-in camper in the bed, I had to take it to a semi shop. These guys did a timely and thorough repair job, and were kind to work on my truck even though it's not a "big truck". The price was good and I will 100% be back should the occasion arise. On top of being skilled & professional, they were also friendly and easy to work with.
Although I live in NC, I've been using Schroeder Truck Repair for over 16 years. Their mechanics and people are top notch. There's not a better mechanic in the country than David. From light mechanical to big mechanical jobs to welding, Schroeder has taken care of it all for me. They're a big reason my 2016 car hauler (truck and trailer) have over 1.2 million miles and is still going strong. When I leave Schroeder I know any problem is resolved... every time. Thanks Schroeder!
Great experience at a bad moment. They took our truck in their shop right after arrival, diagnosed bad batteries and lose wire on the alternator that was causing battery overcharge.They already had the right batteries, replaced them and it took them 1h45min together with diagnostics and replacement. The charge was fair as well. I wish every shop was like them. Right on point, great feedback and organized.We didnt even had to cancel our reload. We loaded on time and kept trucking. Two thumbs up!
We were Left in a bind on our Annual inspections for our trailers, I called Schroder, and Phil was very helpful in getting the inspections completed. Joey was prompt, informative, polite, and their work is top notch. They are now our go to for any of our service needs on our trailer repairs.
Experienced and well-equipped shop that takes great care of your rig. I came in with a few issues—they took me in right off the street and had everything fixed within a couple of hours, saving me valuable time. Big plus: they really know how to maintain your Carhauler!
Did great work replacing the glow plugs, harnesses, rellay on my skoolie. They don’t always work on international but I knew what I wanted done and they were happy to oblige. Everyone there was welcoming and friendly. And a solid rate for Denver. Would definitely return
