Questions
How do I check my transmission fluid level?
Check with the engine running, transmission in park, and at operating temperature. Use the dipstick to verify fluid is at the proper level on both sides.
How often should I get a transmission fluid change?
Most vehicles require changes every 30,000–60,000 miles. Consult your owner's manual or schedule our External Diagnostic Service for personalized recommendations.
What's the difference between a transmission service and flush?
A service replaces half the fluid via the pan. A flush uses a machine to exchange all old fluid with new, preventing mixing and contamination.
Do you offer free towing?
Yes, we provide free towing within 100 miles when we perform repairs. This service eliminates additional costs for customers needing urgent transmission work.
Can you repair all vehicle makes?
Our technicians service all domestic and foreign makes and models, including specialized Road Ripper transmission upgrades for performance vehicles.

Friendly and informative employees. Didn't make feel like I didn't understand anything mechanical. Bill was able to give "possible" advice as to the sound that shouldn't be. And it turned out, that's what it was.

This place is swamped everytime I come there. Shop is always organized and mechanics are busy. Very organized and managed shop. Great place to do business.
