If your vehicle has a continuously variable transmission (CVT), it operates differently from traditional automatics. CVTs offer smoother acceleration and better fuel efficiency, but when they develop issues, they require specialized attention. At Milwaukee Transmissions, we provide expert CVT transmission repair for drivers across Milwaukee.

We understand the unique mechanics of CVTs and how to keep them performing properly.

How CVT Transmissions Work

Unlike standard gear-based systems, CVTs use a belt-and-pulley setup that adjusts seamlessly to driving conditions. There are no gear shifts you can feel—just steady, controlled movement. That smooth ride is a big benefit, but it also means problems can sneak up quietly.

Common CVT concerns include:

  • Sudden RPM increases without acceleration
  • Humming or whining noises
  • Jerky or sluggish performance
  • Overheating after extended driving
  • Warning lights related to transmission issues
  • These systems require a different diagnostic approach than traditional transmissions, which is why working with a transmission-focused shop matters.

What We Do During CVT Service

We start with a complete evaluation, including a fluid check, scan of stored trouble codes, and real-world test driving. Based on what we find, we may recommend:

  • CVT fluid replacement or flush
  • Repairing worn pulleys or belts
  • Replacing failed solenoids
  • Addressing overheating problems
  • Full CVT transmission replacement if needed

We use CVT-compatible fluids and parts, ensuring the repair is done to factory standards.
