Amazing quick affordable honest service…read more My transmission was repaired and an axel was replaced for $2,014 including taxes, saving me over $4,000 than if I bought and installed a refurbished transmission from the dealer. My car was disabled on Friday Jan. 21, 2022, and towed to this great place, he ordered the parts on Monday, and my car was repaired and ready to go on Tues. I highly recommended Delaware County Transmissions to my my neighbor Liz Turner and everyone. They are near Eagle Road in Havertown, PA. The longer version: My car stopped moving forward and I was told it was probably the transmission, this happened on Friday Jan. 21. Bill from Bob & Joe's towing recommended Delaware County Transmissions when I asked him for someone that could repair my transmission. I had been waiting in my car since 11:00 a.m. and AAA (Triple A) Towing was taking a really long time to come get me (over 2 hours). Wilkie Lexus told me the repair would cost me over $6,000 to get a refurbished transmission. I was looking to see if I could get a better price as I didn't want to invest that much money in my 2004 Lexus ES-330. I spoke with a wonderful man who handles sales and is a founder of Delaware County Transmissions, he told me that he has been repairing transmissions for 32 years. I had my car towed to him by C & K Towing (works for AAA. Turns out that both towing companies and Delaware County Transmission are located in the same industrial complex not far from Eagle Road and the Manoa Shopping Center in Havertown, PA. By Tues. my car's transmission was repaired for just over $2,000, including the cost of replacing my Axel which had broken because a large hose or pipe of my transmission had broken or cracked. He was honest, and the repair was done quickly and professionally, and I saved almost $4,000. I was so very impressed with this man, and his business, and I already recommended him to my good friend and neighbor, Liz Turner, who wrote down the name of his business in case she ever needs someone to work on her car's transmission. I thank God for leading me to Delaware County Transmission, I was very pleased with their service. They even washed and detailed my car, and it has been riding very smoothly ever since. Praise the Lord, and God bless this company!

It's hard to find a shop you can actually trust, but these guys are knowledgeable, professional,…read moreand genuinely care about doing the job right. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Delaware County Transmissions to anyone in the Havertown or Delaware County area.

I wish I could rate this place zero stars. Where do I even begin, this shop ruined my car…read morecompletely I brought my Nissan 350z here in the beginning of this summer in May of 2019 for a transmission rebuild and was informed it would get done in 3 days. Fast forward to 4 weeks later and it finally was finished, incorrectly I might add. I was driving it to work the next day after I received my car back, mind you I already spent 2600 on the rebuild. When I was driving it back it would come out of gear so I took it back to the shop on that day. They informed me that my computer in my car was broken and it had nothing to do with them. Then they told me they would send me to their parts guy to get the computer so they could "make things right" their parts guy gave me the wrong part and I could not get a refund. They told me it was my fault and my car was not their problem anymore. After I got the correct part I got it installed at Nissan and I still had the isssues. I was informed that the transmission was not rebuilt correctly and they refused to honor the 3 year warranty that I paid for and did not offer to fix my problem. I would avoid this place at all costs. They are liars and thieves and I am seeking legal action. I seriously would avoid this shop they ruined my Car completely and took my money for a service they did not perform. I had to buy a different car because they destroyed mine. Please do not go here

Brought in my 2005 Mercedes for a regular transmission service (oil and filter) for an estimate of…read more$250. In the middle of the job they tell me a connector is leaking and it will be another $250 to replace. I googled it and it turns out that this is pretty common and easy fix. The connector is actually $10 and everyone say it is a 10 minute job including the time to lift the car. When I pick up the car I show them a printout of the real price of the part and they lower it on my bill to $85 for a grand total of $365.78. It is clear that they basically try to take advantage of non technically-inclined people. Well, I end up paying the bill but for sure they will not see my face again and will do my best to warn others.

I will be the first one to tell you, I know absolutely nothing about cars. So when it came to…read morefinding out my issue, I was quite skeptical because I have been screwed before. My first time going in I had a noise in the front end of my car, and for the life of me had no idea what it was. I called Darren and said " Good morning Darren I am having a sound in the front of my car, and im worried it could be something serious, I will be in the area and was wondering if you could take a look at it?" He told me to bring it in WITHOUT AN APPOINTMENT, and just did a full check on my car. Finally diagnosing the issue was just low power steering fluid. Here I am thinking it will be hundreds of dollars and it wasn't even close to that. The complete honest really went along way because they could have charged me whatever it is and I would have paid it. It is hard to find this type of honest any more and I really appreciate you taking me in within a few hours of calling you, and taking care of the issue. He treats it like it was his car and that's why I will never take my car anywhere else but to Darren's Automotive Powertrain. Thank you!!

When my regular mechanic noticed during a routine inspection a leak in my transmission in my 23…read moreyear old Neon, I did an internet search for an honest, reputable transmission shop. My search came up with Automotive Powertrain. I was able to get an appointment today and was impressed with the courteous, professional manner I was treated. I asked Darren if I could wait for my car and he said it was going to take time to examine and determine what was wrong. He mentioned they provide free van service so I could leave my car and when service was completed, the van would pick me up at home and take me back to the stop. Jeff took me home and I waited a few hours before Darren called to say the coolant lines were leaking, the gasket needed to be replaced, and they would take it for a test drive before he would call me to say it was ready. Darren said it should be ready today and also gave me a price quote. Around 3:00PM I spoke to Darren and said if my car would be ready today, I would have to leave within the next 20 minutes to take the bus to the shop before they closed at 5:00PM. Darren said the van was leaving to pick me up. To my surprise in about 10 minutes Jeff was outside my house in my car! He wanted me to test drive back to the shop. Darren said there would be no charge if I brought my car in two weeks later to see if there were any leaks. I told Darren I was so glad I took my car to Automotive Powertrain. These people are the most honest, hard working automotive repair shop I have had the pleasure to deal with.

Listen. LISTEN. If you are considering hiring this "mobile mechanic," please pause, take a deep…read morebreath, and maybe lie down, because what I'm about to describe is not for the faint of heart. This man rolled up to my driveway in a van that looked like it had already lost a fight with a tornado, a raccoon, and possibly its own sense of self-worth. He hopped out, spilled an entire soda, and said, "Don't worry, that happens." Sir. SIR. Why is that your greeting?? He opened my hood, nodded like he was understanding the secrets of the universe, then poked a totally random part and said, "Yep, that's your problem." When I asked what the problem was, he said and I quote, "Mechanic stuff." Thirty minutes later my car was making a new sound I can only describe as "haunted dishwasher screaming into the void." I asked him if that was normal and he said, "Cars make noises." Then he charged me an amount of money so offensive I think it might be a hate crime against my bank account. He drove away. My car died. In the same moment. Like they were spiritually connected and my car couldn't continue living after witnessing whatever he did to it. If you hire this man, may the automotive gods have mercy on your soul because he WILL NOT. i would give zero stars but, Yelp refuses to let me express the true depth of my suffering.

Basically we were side swiped. I put out a project on yelp asking for a mechanic. Dave messaged me…read moreand said he would come out that night to take a look. Hours go by and he never showed. Finally that morning he came by. Told us the issues and told us what parts to get. We paid him $250 to buy the parts and $200 in labor. Not only did he get junked parts but none of them were good. I asked him to at least refund us for the money we paid in the parts. So he stopped responding. DO NOT USE THIS MECHANIC. He took our car parts and sold them for cash and our car still isn't running. We've had to have another mechanic take a look and begin to work on the car. This was a very unpleasant experience I wish on no one.

I had a tune up there cost me nearly $600 didn't change 1 coil!!! Months after I had them replace my water pump which cost me just under $500 they failed to put my timing belt on correctly and since I knew nothing about cars, they allowed me to leave their shop with a crazy ticking noise as if I had a Diesel engine and I made sure to bring it to their attention that's not a sound I ever heard prior to bring it in. They insisted that I take it to who did my oil change?!!! Days go by I'm on my way home from work and boom! Long story short I ended up having to get a new engine because they failed to pay attention to detail. Cost me $3,000.00!!!!! Joe (the mechanic) insisted he would never let me leave with an unsafe vehicle because he knew I had children. Thanks for nothing.

Earlier this week, my vehicle was struck by a delivery van and declared a total loss by the insurance company. The initial valuation was low but I put a lot of work into my car this past year. I didn't keep any of my receipts but fortunately Lou does! He was able to make copies of all receipt documentation for the work that he did on my car so that I could show the insurance company. Awesome customer service!
