It was Alex at Talcott Transmission. He took me on priority and provided me with a thorough assessment including an accurate price estimate for a few options. We decided on a course and he did excellent, on-time work with a great result. He fully stands behind his work. The shop is a no-nonsense very large garage with many projects in progress.

His experience with MB, Audi, BMW, VW, ET AL, is unmatched by anyone in the Hartford area. He makes annual trips to Europe to be factory trained. No matter what the issue is he's seen it, diagnosed it and fixed it. Uber professional, his shop is immaculate. When I went in for my first oil change and to investigate a leak, he spent well over an hour and a half going over every aspect of my vehicle and advising on cost/timing of repairs. I think he charged $115. Incredible. Do not hesitate to get your vehicle repaired here.

The shop after looking tru the glass is immaculate clean with several cars being done at once. New cars and someone's beautiful 60's caddilac. Obviously these guys are trusted with car people . The car now runs perfect and they also did two additional repairs no charge that I'm sure others wouldn't have spent the time. Not typical for me to write reviews but If you need a serious transmission repair this is the place.

Despite a parking lot full of jobs waiting (and a phone that would not stop ringing), Rick took my car in and did the job in about 75 minutes.

I mentioned that the sliding doors were on the fritz as he was wrapping up - he took a few extra minutes to look them over and suggested possible issues.

I'd had another auto guy tell me I needed new brakes, new transmission and engine mounts and a bunch of other repairs, so decided to get a quote a 'south street auto' Kevin the owner said I only needed brake bracket parts and cleaning, and something with the power steering but that my brakes were almost new and the engine looked great. I asked him to do everything on the car while I was there to make sure it was safe for my college aged son to drive and it all totaled $414. I saved a few thousand by coming here. I noted that every guy that came in was a 50-70 year old local who had obviously been taking their cars there for years. This is now my go-to auto place. Kevin could have told me anything was wrong with my car and I'd have no clue but he obviously runs a honest and extremely fair priced.

After glancing at some quick reviews, Bill's looked like my best bet - BEST decision I could have made. They did anything and everything to try to keep costs low when diagnosing my clutch issue and gave daily updates on their progress with pictures! They understand the expenses that vehicles incur and genuinely attempt to keep costs low and affordable. After this major fix, I had another issue and immediately went back to Bill's. The issue was unrelated to their previous work, but Joe (who specializes in Jeeps) drove to Mass to get the part for me that day! They made me feel like a priority both times I have been here, and will take the time to give you the details about their diagnostics. I can't recommend this place enough!

All I can say is that Jim is the most dedicated, trustworthy guy I've had the pleasure to work with in years. He takes pride in his workmanship, delivers when he says he will, discusses all repairs in detail, AND charges fair prices. Jim's knowledge of Bronco's saved many hours or labor charges because he knows the trucks like he knows the back of his hand. I had an extensive mechanical overhaul performed on my 73 Ford Bronco, in addition to rebuilding the transmission, and I am completely satisfied because the work was done right!
