He inspected my vehicle thoroughly and also very transparent on any future preventative maintenance I may need. 10/10! Also while I waited Austin made me feel very comfortable w/ the pricing and overall what to expect from the visit. He displayed great communication, empathy, also made sure that everything question I had was answered! Great Crew to say the least I'll recommend them to anyone especially if you need a transparent & honest assessment of your vehicle

Austin informed me he tried to do a check on my car re: accident. I had purchased my car & knew there had been a minor accident/repair before I had bought it. NOT slavaged. I bought it from a Carmax.

They credited the diagnosis fee to the service performed which is nice. They offer a decent warranty on their work. They are also flexible to offer parts options to help lower the total cost of repair. They say all of their techs have senior experience, and they were able to get my car in quickly- some other garages have wait times of up to a week. I checked their hourly rates, they are in line with other garages I have used in the past. They seem to have a very smooth and efficient system set up, they handle a lot of cars with the large garage space they have, and they do a good job communicating and providing updates. Convenient location for South Austin customers. They even sent me a follow up message after the repair- that was a first for me! I would recommend this garage for service and repair work.

This guy that he sent had to come back because break line and components came off next day while driving. I have pics and texts to prove. My GM 6.2 V8 come to find out common problem for that motor lifters went out so I went to him for the engine replacement. His price quoted was pretty good so I gave him a shot. My car was not even drivable this whole time (we had to wait on engine and things for months) yet I get a call the day he test drives it for the first time and he tells me I need new steering column. The car did not go in for steering issues. It was completely fine. He blames it on wear and tire from my lift and big tires. I call the people who did my lift and I called covert Cadillac certified mechanics and gave the history of car and lift and all and they called BS. My fault for not driving to Frank's place to see for myself. So I pick it up after engine replacement and steering column replacement. I get not but a mile down road from his shop and no acceleration and engine is just revving up loud . I coast off the road to luckily a gas station right there. What looks like oil and grease is splattered all over undercarriage and side and back windows. I have pics of all this. Transmission line came off. I won't give any more specific on this because I'm in process of filing the lawsuit and taking him to court. So He has a guy come meet me, I took video of his mechanics actions and what he did and Frank telling him on the phone I'm good to go, needless to say he screwed up. I get home and next day the car does it again right as I drive out of my home. I call Frank to get it towed back to his shop which is about 45 min to an hour from Lakeway. Frank gets car back, now he tells me I need new transmission. After transmission I go back to car to pickup and I go to open my door and there was mechanic grease all over headliner and seats, spilled oil on my rubber mats, bird shit all over the outside and dust and pollen caked the interior. He left windows cracked. I took pics of everything as proof. He decides to offer me a detail, so he sends me down the road. He paid for it yet I waited 3 hours. What I'm paid for my time in work you could say was a bigger loss. The fact alone my car was in that condition when he called to tell me it was ready is reason alone you shouldn't use him. I've included pics with this post. I could go on with several other smaller things I asked him to do while he had my car for engine replacement and transmission repair that I needed done. He never fixed them. I again have proof where he acknowledges he forgot so now I have to reschedule to have him finish the job. I also recorded most of our phone conversations that prove he apologizes for messing up. It came to the point where I was recording the convos because prior to me doing that it was just word salad on his part and I knew it this point I needed to document for the court. You would be amazed how many texts I have where I have had to constantly follow up and check on him after he would give me a supposed timeline or update with a promise he would keep me updated. I'm convinced all these reviews on here that are high stars aren't legit whatsoever. I have meticulously documented everything with pics, texts and phone conversations. If you're smart and reading this don't give him your business no matter how well quoted he may be . He may try to defend himself with a reply like some others he's done to on here. I've got it all though m, the truth. I was always extremely nice in all my texts to him, I was at the mercy of his screw ups and didn't want to be a jerk. No matter what when your rude or a jerk you run the risk to be even more screwed over so I chose to take high road and he knows it. I've verified and shown all my proof to several different master General Motors Master technicians and they all came back with resounding response that Frank was at fault. So now it will be in the courts hands and I will update this once it's over. For anyone that would like to know more you can contact me. I've got all you would need to run as fast as you can from this mechanic. I've even documented some new mechanics that showed me what things he did that they couldn't believe from when he did the engine replacement. His shop spliced so many wires and I took video the moment the mechanics found these issues and they talk on camera about it. I've asked Frank over the last several weeks and really last 6 months to send me an itemized list of repairs like a receipt. His reply was he texted me the cost every time he had to charge me for something. Last thing, he never once showed up on time for any of the jobs that he did. I have proof of his reasons for being late and apologies for every one of them. What kind of professional does that. All the more reason to believe these reviews are fake

I brought it to another place who quoted me similar but "alluded" to the fact that I would need a new transmission (I was warned transmission places would do this). Neither of these answers made sense to me or were cost effective to the value of the car- so I was at a crossroads of whether to keep the car I love, or say goodbye because of the cost of the repair. Two weeks of my life that I'll never get back. Austin Transmission and Clutch Specialists saved the day- the third mechanic that I went to- and they approached my car in a professional and methodical manner. They found the part at an after market place for a quarter of the price and got it in the car the next day. They saved me a ton of money AND I am totally going to go them for my brakes and other stuff. They approach car care the way I need them to. They made phone calls on my behalf to see if the recall on the car was still valid (I sat in the office with them while they did this) and informed me of what the solution was. They went above and beyond on customer service- these local Austin guys are the real deal. Take your car here. I do.

This location has once again helped us in a last minute time of need. I took my van in after it started smelling like smoke and shaking down the highway. We are new to town and so I googled if any Christian Brothers were nearby. They got me in for a diagnostic that same morning. There was a miscommunication and we thought the van would be fixed by early Thursday morning (because we had a Dr appointment in Houston Thursday afternoon) but then found out it wouldn't be. Wes called us back late Wednesday and said his tech made it a priority to get the van fixed and we would have it back Thursday morning!! They have our deepest gratitude for this.

My first experience was OK. They replaced a sheared off stud on one tire…read more That experience was why l went to CB when my AC was blowing hot on Thursday. They said they needed to keep the car overnight and it should be fixed Friday. However Friday afternoon around 4:30 they said they couldn't get the part until Monday morning between 8-9am. I said l cannot be without a car all weekend please come get me. I also said l have to work Monday can you be done by 12 or 12:30? He said yes. At about 8:00 Monday they texted to say the part was there and to be there by 9. I arrived about 8:45. Then he said it would be 2:00-2:30 before it would be ready. I said that won't work for me, I have to be at work by 1:00 and you told me Friday that it would be finished around noon. I cannot be 2 to 2.5 hours late to work. He said he would do what he could but it would be 2:00. I was not happy and said so. I said please make it 1:00, l don't want to get fired. I don't appreciate being lied to Friday. Had l known he was going to bait and switch, I would have had the work done at my regular shop. They were supposed to fix AC and replace a leaky gasket. He texted me at 12:24 to say the AC was fixed. I said please pick me up so l can go to work. He said no it won't be ready until 2:30, as they need to finish putting it together and test drive it. I said then why tell me the work is complete? I need my car ASAP. He was noncommital. Finally at 2 they texted me to say its ready and driver was on the way to get me. I paid $2400 for new compressor and freon flush and refill. He said they didn't do the gasket replacement to get it done faster. So all work requested was not done and they had my car almost 3 days. After i left I looked for my wheel lock, and they had not put it back in my car. So l had to go back and ask for it. They said they couldn't find it and would call the technician who worked on the car. Eventually Martin found it. He was very helpful. Nathan the shuttle driver was also helpful. Sadly I will not be back because of the poor communication of the guy with dark curly hair. I'm being generous calling his lies poor communication. Apparently having 2 bibles in your waiting rooom doesn't mean you won't lie to customers. I was disappointed, as l was planning to have them do more work on my car. My regular shop doesn't offer shuttle service and is further away. Needless to say l will be going back to the old shop that doesn't lie. Buyer Beware of Christian Brothers Auto repair. In addition they gave me a list of suggested repairs that was about $4500. Bear in mind the majority of items had been done recently and were visible on CarFax. One example was a $120 oil change that wasn't due for another 3300 miles. I wouldn't trust these people to be honest about your vehicles service needs.

I truly wanted this to be a positive experience, but unfortunately it was not…read more I brought my 2017 Volkswagen Tiguan (about 79,000 miles) to Austin's Automotive Specialists in November 2025 for an oil leak. After their inspection, I approved additional repairs and paid $2,006.64, picking up the car on Nov. 17. Within days, the leak was worse. Instead of one leak, I now had two, along with a strong burning-oil smell while driving. I returned on Nov. 21 and was told it was just leftover oil and that everything had been cleaned. That same evening, I discovered the car was leaking from three different places. I brought the car back again on Dec. 2. After no communication all day, I called and was told they found another leaking gasket and wanted an additional $400. I was also told that "oil leaks are tricky on Volkswagens," but a properly diagnosed repair should not turn one leak into multiple new leaks in a matter of days. At this point, I declined further work. I paid over $2,000 and ended up with a car in worse condition than when I brought it in. I requested a refund in writing and never received a response. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this shop.
