I asked if I can come in ASAP and the guy I was talking to, I believe his name is Hasib, said to drop by anytime. I came by after work, Friday 4:30PM. I settled on getting one of their already-rebuilt transmissions installed, as long as I give them the current beat-up one that was already on my car, I said yes of course because what will I do with a bad transmission sitting in my garage lol My car was ready Sunday afternoon, ready to go to work for Monday. I've only driven it today, and there is a night and day difference, it feels like a new car! No more slipping accompanied with the screeching grinding...thank god. I've already recommended these to the people at work who have heard how my car used to sound, downside is they only work on Honda's currently, but they did mention once they start growing they will expand into other brands of cars. Will definitely be using them again if myself or family needs work, luckily half our cars are Honda! Really glad I found this shop, I did find out its family owned and operated, a father and his two sons, starting up a business on what they enjoy doing, and doing a Hell of a good job at the same time. Thanks for the help, guys!

My 2006 Acura TL broke down while I was driving on free way. Following week I started shopping…read morearound for a transmission replacement. I called a few places and the estimate given to me is costing more than the value of my car. I found Pristine Transmission on Craigslist. I spoke to the owner over the phone twice and I visited the shop twice. I was able to meet the owner on my second visit. His name is Rasul. Every review that I read has his name wrong. Rasul explained to me why Honda/Acura transmission would fail after certain mileage. He actually had a few transmissions sitting on the work bench and he explained to me how he rebuilds transmission. I am 100% sold at that time. When I picked up my car, Rasul told me that he replaced one of the engine mount because he noticed the one near the back was crack. He also attempt to rotate the tires but found out all four tires where the inner edge is peeling and advised me to take them back to the tire shop. There is no cost to me for the extra work. I waited two weeks before writing this review. Just want to say - thank you.

As a new lady client, I got very good vibes and felt that they were trustworthy with a good reputation. I even learned some maintenance tips for my car. Definitely will be booking my regular car services with Mangale Motors... thank you so much John and Jeff!

Funny thing I actually met Silvestre in the gym and right there and then he mentioned to me if I…read moreever had trouble or needed work done on my vehicles to let him know and amazing how life or in this case God works maybe like a week after our interaction I suddenly got everyone's worst nightmare, a check engine light, and Who? better to go to than to Silvestre and his shop I liked the service and how l was treated everyone is super friendly and super knowledgeable as well with Silvestre as well. Took my vehicle in and got it back that same day. The price and cost was respectable and reasonable for the maintenance and service. Can't complain about that. I definitely will return if I have to in the near future. So if you or anyone you know, need service on your vehicle come down to Silvestre's shop and he and his crew will take care of you no doubt about that.

I came for a battery problem that had to do with the lighting. The inspection was $180 which was…read morefair price, but Silvestre noted that the amount would be credited towards the repair, which was a great deal! The repair itself was done in a matter of a day, I was surprised when they call me so fast. Not only that, but battery was dead and needed to be replaced, it was under warranty and Silvestre offered to pick it up, I just had to send the receipt, saved me at least $200 for a new one. When I get there, they told me about a tire that was losing air (I've been meaning to change it). Cesar comes and talks to me, and offered me a deal. Four almost new Shelby 20-in rims with new tires, sensor change for a deal I couldn't reject (mind you I've been meaning to buy 20-in rims). The rims were fresh, and he already had two installed to move the car, they just looked so good, I ended up closing the deal. When I came to pick up the car, rims were installed with the sensors, lighting was done, and he also painted the calipers, and removed the rust from the disk FOR FREE!!! Such an amazing job from these two guys, I can't be happier with my car now. 100% recommend this shop for any repairs, they literally do everything, and I got the deal of my life with everything they did. Thanks Silvestre and Cesar I'm definitely coming back for any other repair I need!!!

I can't say enough good things about Zoom Auto Transmission Center! I recently brought in my van…read morefor a full transmission replacement, and from start to finish the experience was smooth, professional, and stress-free. David was the technician who helped me, and he was outstanding. He took the time to explain everything clearly--what was wrong, what needed to be done, and how long it would take. He answered all my questions with patience and never once made me feel rushed or pressured. You can tell he really knows his stuff and genuinely cares about doing quality work. The team at Zoom Auto got my van back to me quicker than I expected, and it's been running perfectly since. Transmission jobs aren't small or cheap, but I feel confident that I got honest pricing, excellent service, and long-term peace of mind. If you're looking for a trustworthy place for transmission work (or any auto repairs), this is the place to go. Ask for David--he's professional, knowledgeable, and goes above and beyond for his customers. Highly recommend Zoom Auto Transmission Center!

I had the car in by 8:10 AM and was out the door within about an hour. I had had the transmission rebuilt about 7 years ago and 44k miles ago. I doubt I've done anything since. The fluid was I think low. I had a fluid change and they changed the filter. I think it was the original filter! OEM Saturn! It was filthy! How that didn't get changed in 2018....?? The service today was reasonably priced. David graciously listened to me blab and tell stories :). Carlos is a worker bee with hustle! Be sure to get a cup of coffee.

My service advisor Thomas Chapman suggested bringing it by in the morning. By the time I brought my vehicle in, the shop had gotten slammed with drop off business.

I brought in a 2015 Mazda 3 and a 2017 Audi A4 to Empire for major repairs. Compared to quotes from…read moreshops on the Peninsula and in the San Ramon Valley, I saved ~35% with the same scope of work and parts. Empire communicated clearly. I got a text with a link to photos of my car's parts while they were working. Ravi used these to show me what actually needed fixing versus what could just be watched. For example, when they found a small fluid seep, they cleaned the area to set a baseline for future checks instead of pushing for an unnecessary repair. I found Empire to be fast and responsive. After I gave the go-ahead on Friday at 4:30pm, they started work Saturday morning and finished the suspension, brakes, and alignment by 3pm the same day. They are fast, know what they are doing, and charge a fair price. Highly recommended.
