Was turned away today for a routine service on a 2006 Scion xb transmission drain and fill. I asked…read moreabout removing some bolts that had previously been installed in ft lb instead of in lb. On my transmission pan. Initially I asked for a flush, but when I mentioned I have 210k miles Steve started acting like I should throw it away, and the work wouldn't be worth it. I couldn't even convince him to drain and fill my fluid. I was recommended to this business by their neighbor John, and Steve put a clutch in for me on another vehicle. That car was a 2007 jeep compass manual that nobody else would touch. Clutch failed less than a year later and I placed no blame on the business who installed the part. These things happen. Will not be returning to him in the future.

I was visiting from out of town, and saw a window of opportunity later in the week to head back…read moreover Mt. Hood with warmer temps. I had "lost" reverse and first on my 2010 Nissan Sentra 6-speed. I was able to roll into first, but reverse had no grab whatsoever. Steve was considerate regarding my time constraints, and fortunately, discovered the linkage had been crammed with a prickly cone (neighborhood squirrels or chipmunks the culprit). I was within 1.5 mile radius, so was provided a ride home and back. I got the car back later that afternoon. And the cost did not break the bank. Very good customer service, resulting in one very happy camper!

Trans Medic rebuilt my transmission on my diesel truck 3 years ago upgraded it to a stage two. Then…read moreI got a check engine light for my torque converter they replaced the torque converter and charged me nothing even though it was past the warranty by a few thousand miles! So I couldn't recommend this shop more. Amazing experience!

UPDATE: Ownership…read morechanged and the new Owner, Nash, upon hearing of this review, wasted no time reaching out. This new Owner didn't have ANY obligation to myself, whatsoever. But Nash wanted to still make this right. Upon talking to Nash the next day, he wanted to send an employee an hour to my house to pick up the Van and take it back to his shop. After receiving the Van and looking it over, it was determined the transmission needed removed and rebuilt. Nash rebuilt the transmission and had his employee deliver it back to my house, without asking a single cent. I am blown away by this generous new Owner, who didn't even own the shop when it was rebuilt before. I haven't really driven the Van since receiving it back yesterday. But on a short test drive, it ran without issue. Thank you Nash! Original review: I had my 2001 Honda Odyssey transaxle rebuilt by Trans Medic about three years ago for $2,400. Unfortunately, my experience has been frustrating from the start. This van was a highway commuter. So it wasn't a lot of hard shifting or stop and go. Ilive an hour away, so every trip to their shop means a two-hour round trip and arranging for someone to follow me. After the rebuild, I had to make not just one, but two extra trips because the shift solenoid wasn't functioning. From day one, the van still had a hard shift into first gear, but I lived with it. Now, only 30k miles later, the transmission is again having trouble engaging in D3 and D4. The D4 and check engine lights started flashing, and a P1753 code pointed to a TCC issue. I replaced both the TCC and shift solenoids myself to save on labor costs--both looked very old and oxidized, which makes me wonder if the originals were ever replaced during the rebuild. I bench tested the solenoids I removed, and they were both operational and within spec, meaning the issue clearly runs deeper. Despite my repairs, the same shifting problems returned almost immediately. Now I'm getting a P0740 code, and the lights are back on. Yes, Honda Odyssey transmissions, within a few years of my 2001, are known for problems, but this should not be happening again at just 30k miles. The shop's 12-month/12k-mile warranty is useless in situations like this, and when I called today, I was told to bring it back--something I'm unwilling to do unless they commit to a no-cost rebuild. And would be again, two people in two different rigs, making two different two hour round trips. I'm glad others may have had better experiences, but for me, the quality and follow-up were deeply disappointing. I came here based on reputation and all the solid reviews. I harbor no ill-will or anger, just total disappointment. Now I'm getting rid of the van As-is and stressed out. After also replacing front tires, brake pads and oil change, the same day I did the solenoid swap. That was $400 tossed away. And to those reading, NEVER buy a 2001 Honda Odyssey.
