Master AutoTech Tooele diagnoses, services and repairs automatic and manual transmissions for drivers across Tooele, Grantsville and Stansbury Park. We tell you whether you need a fluid service, a repair or a rebuild before any work starts, and back the work with our 12-month / 12,000-mile warranty*.
Stop-and-go traffic on Main Street and the climb up Settlement Canyon heat transmission fluid and wear it out faster. Our shop is on North Main Street near downtown Tooele, so we’re easy to reach before a small shifting problem turns into a rebuild.

What Tooele Drivers Say
“Jason, Heather, and the whole crew took a deep dive into my old Bronco and found the solution that NO ONE else could. I couldn’t be happier. I drive 45min one-way to bring my vehicles to this shop. Price and service are second to none.”
Daniel Frederick
“Outstanding Service!!! This was my first time taking a car to Master Autotech, and i can safely say that I’ve found my new shop. I tried getting my clutch replaced at a couple other shops first, but they didn’t seem to want the job. (They were) super easy to work with right away, and they made room for my car immediately. I got my new clutch, as well as a couple of other things that I’ve wanted done for a while. I will definitely be going back!”
Gregor Dzierzon
“I am so excited to see an amazing business like this in Tooele. It’s a refreshing change of pace for sure! “5 ⭐️’s all day long!!!”

How Often Should You Service Your Transmission?
Most automatic transmissions need a fluid service every 30,000 to 60,000 miles; check your owner’s manual, because some “lifetime” fluids still benefit from changing. Towing, stop-and-go traffic on Main Street and climbing Settlement Canyon heat the fluid and break it down faster.
| Driving condition | Recommended fluid service |
|---|---|
| Normal commuting | Every 50,000–60,000 miles |
| Towing, hauling or mountain driving | Every 30,000 miles |
| Manual transmission | Every 30,000–60,000 miles |
| CVT | Follow the manufacturer schedule closely |
Signs You Need Transmission Repair
Catching transmission problems early can mean a repair instead of a rebuild. Watch for:
- Slipping gears or RPMs that climb without acceleration
- Rough, harsh or delayed shifts
- A delay before the car moves in Drive or Reverse
- Red or brown fluid under the vehicle
- A burning smell after driving
- Whining, clunking or humming noises
- The check engine or transmission warning light
How Much Does Transmission Repair Cost in Tooele?
Transmission costs range from a fluid service to a full rebuild, so diagnosis comes first. Price depends on the transmission type (automatic, manual or CVT), what failed, and your vehicle. Many shifting problems are solved with a solenoid, sensor or fluid service rather than a rebuild. We’ll explain every option and price before we start.
Need to spread out the cost? Master AutoTech offers several financing options, including the Goodyear Credit Card (6-month special financing on purchases of $250 or more), the Synchrony Car Care credit card, the 1stMILE Mastercard, Snap Finance, Acima, Surepay and RC Willey financing.
