    Transmission slippage can be caused by a variety of factors that are sometimes difficult to pin down. From Blue Lakes Auto Repair in Twin Falls, ID, here’s a rundown of the more common issues that may cause a transmission to slip.

    Worn/Burnt Clutches - Your truck’s transmission is packed with clutches that allow it to engage or disengage. If they’ve become worn or damaged, they won’t work properly, and your transmission will slip.
