The right direction being Steve and the team at Cottman Transmission behind them. From the moment I met Steve, he cut aside all the sales techniques and focused on my vehicle. Too often, automotive repair shops focus on finding problems, just to gauge their customers for extra money. This was not my experience with Steve. Steve took it upon himself to research my vehicle, and figure out the best solution. The service I received was very prompt, and the timeline was very accurate. Throughout the whole process, I received numerous updates as to how my vehicle was coming a long and the adjustments that would be needed. All in all, I would highly recommend the service found at the Cedar Park location's of The Austin Automotive Specialist and Cottman Transmission for all of your automotive needs.

‼‼$40,000 in DAMAGES -- Engine Destroyed, Vehicle TOTALED by Capitol Automotive's Negligence‼‼…read more In March, I took my BMW to Capitol Automotive for a simple oil change -- and they completely totaled my car. They failed to reinstall the control valve inside the oil cap and used a cheap, poor-fitting aftermarket oil filter. This caused severe internal damage -- metal shavings were found in the oil, and the engine ultimately failed. BMW confirmed the failure was due to poor oil control caused by that missing valve. To make matters worse, their handling of the situation has been completely unprofessional and unethical. Instead of standing behind their work, they've shown how untrustworthy and careless their process truly is. Instead of owning up to their mistake, they've now resorted to accusing us of spreading lies about their business -- which is not only false but completely immoral. Trying to discredit customers rather than taking accountability for their own negligence is beyond unprofessional. It's embarrassing, and it says everything about the way they operate. This was not a small mistake -- it was complete carelessness that totaled my car. What should have been a simple oil change turned into a $40,000 disaster. Do not trust Capitol Automotive with your vehicle. Legal action is already underway.

Then, Tuffy told me I had an oil gasket leak (quoted me $435), I took it down the road to Auto Spec and they took me under the car- no leak at all. It's funny because now the website and phone lines are down.. I think this place needed a money grab to stay in business. Stay away if they ever come back open.

Be careful, the philip, the guy at the reception can overcharge you. If you get an estimate from…read morethem please make sure that you are taking some time to do research and ask for estimates from other auto repair shops. In my case I was charged at least more than $300 than the official Toyota. Moreover, I was charged for materials that I provided and I should be charged only for labor. Also they added a ridiculous surcharge for "shopping" for the required parts. But unfortunately I found everything out when the work was done. So please don't believe them. Philip agreed to refund $220(that's why 2 stars review instead of 1)for overcharge and mistake charge for material that I brought. But I still believe that at the official Toyota in general I would pay much less than at tuffy. I also brought their ad voucher for a 10% discount for any work that was over $300" but he refused to provide the discount, it's about $150 that I could get for my ~ $1500 bill with them. As Steve Jobs used to say: " One more thing" - when I told Toyota about my car and what was done - they told me that most likely I don't need half of replacements that was done by a tuffy. So probably I lose even more money than I think. Bottom line: BE CAREFUL and take your time to make sure that you will not be overcharged and make sure that you really need the work that they are offering. I don't know about the other brands but if you have a relatively new Toyota - it's much better to go to the official Toyota for repairs.
