Ocean Honda said the my transmission was get hot and the fluid was "boiling over" and needed a new…read moretransmission for $7,000+. I called Brown's Transmission and the owner talked me off the ledge and encouraged me to bring the car in for evaluation. Drove the car from Honda to Brown's and was immediately greeted by Ralph. I explained the issue to Ralph and he put the car in the lift. Took Ralph maybe three minutes to take off the plastic shield that covers the transmission and a portion of the engine compartment. Ralph brought the shield to me and showed me that there was not leakage under the transmission in the usual areas (front and aft seals I believe) which was absolutely clean but quite a bit of fluid on the drivers side of the shield. Ralph pointed his flashlight in the area of the leakage and with a couple minutes found that I had a loose transmission sensor that allowed fluid to leak. Ralph tightened the sensor and cleaned up the area as beautiful he could do that we could confirm no more leakage. I was only asked to pay $40 for the Honda fluid which was flushed. Wow! Additionally, Ralph left the plastic shield off and asked me to bring the car back in a week or two so that he can confirm the leak was fixed and would reinstall the shield. This shop provided incredible service and I have now sworn off Ocean Honda will now be coming to Brown's Transmission from now on. Incredible owner and Ralph went above and beyond to help me. Thank you Brown's Transmission!

Inaccurate diagnosis of the oil leak--also exaggerated--another auto-shop confirmed. DMC told me I needed new spark plugs--which I had (all of them) replaced by a trusted auto repair shop last year, before I moved to Ventura. Their focus seems to be on sales, not service. Oh and they did not top up my oil change, at the end of the service, so when I got home and noticed a couple of days later the oil was on minimum. (New oil filter absorb the oil and needs a top up at end of serve, according to AI) Instead one of their associated told me the low oil was due to a huge oil leak from one of the gaskets. I have a slight oil leak on my garage floor. My new auto (mom and pop) car repair told me no gasket problem, slight oil leak due to something else, and not urgent. Don't be dazzled by the fancy video's and pics from the inspection. Sound great. Most of us don't know what we are looking at anyway. Suggest going to a local repair shop instead.
