The cost of a transmission flush typically ranges from about $100 to $400, depending on various factors such as the vehicle type, transmission size, location, and whether the service is done at a dealership or an independent mechanic
. More specifically:
- Most drivers can expect to pay between $125 and $250 for a professional transmission fluid flush
- The cost tends to be higher for larger vehicles that require more transmission fluid, sometimes exceeding $400 for heavy-duty trucks with large fluid capacities
- The price includes replacing all the transmission fluid (which can be 12 to 22 quarts), flushing out grime and contaminants, and often replacing the transmission filter and pan gasket
- Transmission flushes cost roughly twice as much as a simple transmission fluid change, which replaces only part of the fluid and usually costs between $80 and $250
Additional factors influencing cost include the type of transmission fluid used (synthetic fluids are more expensive), the method of flushing, and labor rates in your area
. In summary, expect to pay around $125 to $250 for a typical transmission flush, with costs potentially higher for larger vehicles or dealership services
