Lino's Automatic Transmission was recommended to me by my "primary auto healthcare provider"…read more(mechanic) -- someone I trust implicitly. Because of the confidence I have in my "PAHCP," I felt comfortable taking my SUV to Lino's. My vehicle had been experiencing a shudder in the transmission -- a lack of smoothness when changing gears. Lino's checked it out and, rather than jumping straight to replacing the torque converter, suggested starting with a transmission fluid change and a high-quality additive. I had already done some online research and asked about a product called Shudder Fixx, but the mechanic explained that it can cause sludge buildup and recommended a better alternative. That's the route we took, and I noticed on the way home the shuddering has completely stopped. While inspecting the vehicle, the mechanic also noticed (and showed me a photo of) a damaged CV joint boot -- it had a hole that would soon cause the joint to lose lubricant and fail. I saw it for myself and agreed it needed replacement, so they handled that repair as well. Lino's is located on 29th Street in McAllen, just north of Business 83. Parking can be a little tight, as the lot is usually full of cars, but you can pull into the first gate and park where possible. After check-in, they'll move your vehicle as needed. The waiting area isn't fancy, but it's clean, air-conditioned, and comfortable, with a TV and remote available. Lino's prices are fair, and their service is honest and professional. I wanted reliable, and that's exactly what I got. I'm very happy with the service I received at Lino's Automatic Transmission and will definitely return if I need transmission work in the future.

I was sure I had ruined my transmission by letting my problems with it go unattended for so long…read more And so it should have. But apparently there was a leak and my transmission fluid was nonexistent. I filled it up halfway and showed up at Lino's the next morning. They spent a couple of hours looking for the leak but couldn't find it. I was asked to drive my car around regularly for the rest of the day, and bring it back the next day. They did find the leak, fixed it, but were unable to explain why I hadn't ruined the car. The cost to fix the leak was small compared to the alternative of having to fix or replace the transmission. They recommended I drop by any morning in the next few weeks or so so they could check my car's transmission again. I'll be there. Whew! Hopefully I can keep my 21 year old Subaru Forester running a while longer. Thanks, Lino's. I really appreciate your straightforwardness and help. - Kevin Shropshire

The mechanic Abel ran diagnostics and drove the car to see what was wrong. He cleared the errors and told us what he thought was wrong with it.

Very honest people her at Young's and didn't even want to charge us for the hour we were there since they only diagnosed. We gave some but still walked away better than we would've at the dealer.
