I have found this establishment through Yelp. To my surprise, Steve the owner, didn't charge for diagnostic test. I have an 2008 Acura TL with 277k miles and thought it was a transmission problem from my previous mechanic but Steve told me it wasn't the transmission. He replaced engine amounts and axel assembly. Even with the repairs, I STILL felt a shudder from the 2nd to 3rd gear on low RPM, BUT it wasn't as bad as before. Not too sure what or how it can be fix completely but at this point, I will just live with it. Steve went above and beyond with my repairs. Steve is wonderful guy to do business with and his price is fair and he will make sure you are satisfied. For sure he got my trust for repeat business in the near future. Thank you Steve and his crew. read more

Jeremy was extremely helpful. I needed the wedge pin/cotter pin/wedge bolt removed from the striking lever in the tailshaft of my Datsun 620 transmission. After Nissan said they couldnt do it, I stopped by Dyno-Trans. Jeremy grabbed the tailshaft and said "follow me" he then proceeded to pry it out which proved unsuccessful. We discussed that another option would be to drill a hole big enough for a punch to fit so he could drive the pin out. He got to work and in a couple minutes he had the pin out. Jeremy also installed the striking rod seal and O-ring. He then tapped the hole and plugged it. The last thing that Jeremy did was clean it in their huge "dishwasher". He walked me through every step he took to get the job done, which was great. Thank you to Dyno-Trans Transmission and a very appreciative shout out to Jeremy! My truck lives to drive another day. read more

We took our Silverado there for a transmission issue, and they did great service in a timely manner. After we had our service I had to take back because I thought it the transmission was slipping again. They looked at it twice at no charge, and it was not slipping. Great work will take our vehicles there from now on. read more

They did a great job on my Toyota sienna van. Went above and beyond to make sure that I was satisfied.

I was getting a loud ticking noise from my engine on my 96 F150 and called 10 minutes before they closed late on a Monday and asked if i could stop by - Steve was not only kind enough to pop the hood and take a look - but he was able to quickly diagnose and repair the issue. Can't say enough good things about my brief but incredible experience here and I can see why they have such great reviews - I'm proud to be the 100th review and i know where to go if i have any issues in the future. Thanks so much Steve. A true gentleman and professional. P.s it was the valvoline on cal oaks that messed up.. not Temecula pkwy read more

Was referred to Dyno-Trans by a tech at Jiffy Lube. I wanted to have my transmission flushed but Jiffy Lube was unable to as my car doesn't have a transmission dipstick. Took my car to Dyno-Trans after playing phone tag for a few days. (Totally my fault due to my schedule). I believe the gentleman's name at the counter I spoke to is Steve. SUPERB Customer Service. Steve has the most welcoming and warmest disposition of anyone I've spoken to at a vehicle repair shop. After giving my transmission a clean bill of health Steve called to let me know everything looks great but to have it's service done in another 20000 miles. They could have just as easily told me it needed service now and kept it. But they didn't. Super Happy with this experience here. If you're apprehensive about taking your car somewhere because you either don't know very much about them or you have trust issues, like me, Take Your Car to Dyno-Trans Transmission. I'm sure I asked 1000 questions in person and on the phone but I was never once met with derision or frustration. Thank You Steve and Dyno-Trans. See you in 20000 miles! :) read more

We recently had a transmission self destruct. We had it towed to Dyno Trans from a referral from another auto repair shop. Dyno did a repair to the transmission, but it soon failed. Had it towed again in the middle of the Christmas, New Years holidays. Steve got the Ford Explorer into the shop and did a great job on a complete rebuild of the transmission. Although low on staff due to COVID-19 illness, Steve had his shop make best effort to complete the repair as soon as possible. To top it off, Steve paid our rental car expense. Dyno-Trans, has my recommendation 110%. A top notch, honest business. read more

My friend and I Stopped here when our Nissan Juke was having transmission issues heading to Joshua tree. The technician who helped us was so informative helpful and kind. I could not recommend this company enough. They were able to give us the help we needed so we could be on our way. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. read more

Steve knows how to run a businesses and keep customers. I've been recommending to Dyno trans for about 15 years after I met him in 2006 when my F-350 blew its transmission guys out on Hwy 79. He's serviced my 4x4 F-150 a while back and I recently came back to have service done on my wife's car and he still treats me great, ALWAYS better pricing than anywhere and always communicates well with what does or doesn't need to be done. Thank you Steve, I only recommend you! read more

Came to Dyno-Trans as a referral from another repair shop and I can see why my normal mechanic trusts them. Steve was honest and up front at what I was looking at for repairs and didn't push an expensive repair on a car whose time had come. Can't vouch for their job quality, but my mechanic does, and I definitely trust this crew to tell me what I do and don't need when it comes to repairs. read more

So I took my truck in for simple service using an on-line coupon. Everything was great until Steve starting pointing out the numerous leaks, which I appreciated. Steve reminds me of my uncle that owns a body shop in New Mexico where the two share a loyal customer base and vendors respect the business. Dyno-Trans is a great small business but has that personal touch. For instance, I mentioned to Steve that I was getting hungry because I did not anticipate this long of a service. In his reply, he opened up his lunch room and fridge. Who does that? Despite spending more time and money, my experience with them was most positive. I will be taking my truck back when I upgrade my trans. He and the Dyno crew deserve my business. Go Broncos read more

They helped me tow my car to check my transmission on my vehicle they did charge me 75.00 for the tow but they did the entire tranny check for free..My transmission needs to be replaced :(. Thank you guys for the free diagnostic service. read more

Steve was communicative, honest, and very transparent. I really enjoyed checking out the decor inside as I waited for the work on our old Honda Odyssey to be completed. I will definitely be going to Dyno-Trans again and recommend you do to if you need transmission or minor repairs completed. read more

I had them install a transmission cooler on my SUV. They mounted it securely in front of the radiator and connected it to the transmission with a combination of metal lines and hoses. Shorty there after one of the connecting hoses broke while I was towing my utility trailer on Interstate 15 and all the transmission fluid drained out. I had my SUV towed to a nearby shop and they replaced the broken hose and the fluid. Dyna Transmission had reused one of the original hose lines (two years old) and it had split open. When I called them and told them the story, they were appreciative of the information but they made no offer to pay any of the costs I had incurred. I could not recommend their shop. read more

Steve and the team at Dyno-Trans took great care of me and my 2006 F-150 with a blown transmission. I knew the day was coming and when it did, based on all the 5 star Yelp reviews, I had no doubt where I was taking it for repairs. Steve was welcoming, honest and the price to rebuild was more than fair. Picked up the truck today and couldn't be happier! They washed it too.... Feeling valued as a customer is the #1 way to earn my Loyalty & Business, I'm a customer for life.....Thank you Steve & Team. read more

Brought my 4runner 02 when it started slipping, Steve was incredible great price on getting back and running. Its great to have a honest and great mechanic my 4runner is so smooth now and runs even better. So glad I brought my truck over to Dyno-Trans. read more

If you're like me, you get unlucky, or use your cars enough that things break (a lot). Going to the wrong shop is very easy, something I had to learn the hard way until I arrived here at Dyno-Trans. Dyno-Trans sets itself apart from the typical "yeah there's oil on your pan going to need a new valve body and so you may as well get a rebuild on your transmission" treatment you get from your typical "stealership" oriented service centers. I trust Steve and that's the most important quality of a shop you need - Trust. I trust Steve and the people he's chosen to work on my vehicles. I trust Steve to keep my car going when I break my transmissions or blow my diffs and I trust him not to take advantage of me in the process. No other shop will get my business after my experiences here. I wouldn't refer anyone of my friends or family anywhere else but here. Thank you Steve and all of the guys for keeping my crap-boxes alive and running! read more

Brought my 2019 Silverado 2500HD in after multiple unsuccessful visits to the dealership. Since it's still under warranty I was just looking for acknowledgment and diagnosis of a shift shuttering problem that GM refuses to acknowledge. Steve took the time to first look up on the internet for any occurences by others with the similar problem. He then took my vehicle for a test drive to verify my concern. He agreed with my concern and wrote up a report for me to take back to GM. I offered to pay him for his time but he just said to come back some day when I was out of warranty. That is hard to find these days. He has made a future customer! Than you Steve. read more

Man this was by far the easiest shop to work with. Honest and fixed the car in a timely manner.

This is one of those places that you find and think its too good to be true. In short: Honest, Fair, Knowledgeable and accommodating. Pretty much the perfect shop that anyone hopes to find. I dealt with Steve who is a pretty stand up guy, who knows his field and is in it to make long time customers. Long story short, my 2004 Chevy Tahoe developed the a leak in the transfer case. I took it to another highly yelped reviewed shop in Murrieta and they gave me a heart attack inducing $3,000 estimate to buy and install a remanufactured transfer case. The place seemed very busy with mostly regular maintenance customers; I asked about replacing the rear half and they said they didn't repair, they swap for a new part (convenient for them, but not so much for me). This triggered an intensive research on my part to understand my problem and find a solution. It turns out this problem is known commonly as the "transfer case pump rub". Several online postings and youtube videos, show the procedure for replacing the rear half of the transfer case. A $200 part plus labor job. The labor is intermediate to advanced and better done with experience and a lift. After having the parts sitting in my garage for about 2 weeks, I decided to look again on yelp and found Dyno-Trans. I spoke to Steve, described the problem and he knew 20 seconds later what I was talking about. He had no problem installing the parts I had purchased online, and took it in on a Thursday and had it ready Friday morning. I could have not have been more pleased, his price was very reasonable and even gave a 10% discount, which he didn't have to do at all. Like I mentioned in the beginning, Steve is in the business for the long run and definitely not looking to make a quick buck on unsuspecting customers at the expense of his reputation. From now on this place will be my go to, for honest and fair mechanic work in the Murrieta, Temecula Area. If you are still reading and thinking about giving these guys a call, don't hesitate. I went from a $3,000 estimate to a $540 parts and out the door price. I can't thank these guys enough, the best I can do is share the knowledge with fellow consumers looking for an honest skilled shop. Thank you again Dyno-Trans. read more
