Transmission and gearbox issues in Suzuki APVs can occur and are often linked to the following:

Delayed Shifting: If the transmission delays when shifting gears o r struggles to engage, it might be due to low transmission fluid o r a worn-out solenoid. Regular fluid checks and changes are vital.
Slipping Gears: This can happen when the transmission fluid is old o r low, o r there may be internal damage to the transmission. Flushing the fluid and replacing it can often fix the problem, but severe cases may require a gearbox overhaul.
Unusual Noises: Grinding o r whining noises may indicate worn-out gears o r bearings inside the gearbox. This usually requires professional attention, including replacing damaged components.
Leaking Transmission Fluid: If you notice red fluid leaking, it could be a sign of a damaged seal o r hose, which may need replacement.
Prevention & Resolution: Regularly check and change the transmission fluid, and address any signs of delayed shifting o r slipping promptly to avoid more serious damage.
