Transmission

USED AUTOMATIC CARS FOR SALE

The transmission is the second most expensive thing on the car to put right, so it is tested under load — not just idled in a bay — before anything is listed.

Tested under load

Every automatic is road-tested through the full range of shifts hot and cold. Flare, hunting and harsh engagement all show up under load and vanish at idle, which is why an idle test tells you almost nothing.

Conventional, CVT or dual-clutch

A torque-converter automatic is the smoothest and most durable; a CVT is the most efficient and feels different rather than worse; a dual-clutch is quickest and least happy in stop-start traffic. The type is listed on every car.

Fluid service history

Sealed-for-life is a marketing phrase, not an engineering one. Where the service record shows a fluid change on schedule, it is in the listing — and where it does not, we do one before the car goes on sale.
