I am Sooo Happy with how over and above the guys and gals were on my old vehicle. 1) I was on a road trip and was planning to leave town in a few days, and they accommodated to my schedule, even though they were currently booked. 2) after looking at my problem, (my O.D. Light was sometimes flashing on my E350 diesel) they decided that I was good to go and they didn't even charge me for the inspection !! Unbelievable service and super friendly staff. Even though they were so busy, they talked to me like I was the only person there. Thank you !! Shout out to Doug at the front desk :) read more

I love my Yelpers but I was actually referred to these guys by a mechanic in Oakland that I Yelped but, unfortunately, doesn't do automatic transmission cars. He recommended Jeff at Schuck's so I called and took my Jetta in for service. My regular mechanic looked at the car, after I was having occasional (rare) trouble getting the car into reverse. The service (not check engine) light was also on. My mechanic charged me a fortune to flush the transmission but couldn't clear the light. He said only the dealer could do that. Not correct. When the trouble started again, I called Schuck's. I live in Oakland so it's not super close but they're walkable from BART and even dropped me off, in the morning, so I could catch the train to work. They kept the car a couple days and couldn't replicate the reverse issue. The car ran fine for them. They diagnosed the service light codes and cleared them. They recommended we not do any work right now since there didn't seem to be any issues and just monitor the situation. LOVE that! No unnecessary repairs! No taking advantage! Yay for honest mechanics!!! Will update again if/when any trouble starts and we have to do repairs. For now, I'm happy to walk away without shelling out unnecessary cash! read more

This is only my second Yelp review I typically never take the time to do this. I have found my GO TO shop for my family, friends and all of you. I had to take the time to say how HAPPY I am with the service I received from Schuck's Transmission. I came in with a rear transmission seal that was leaking and the two gentlemen and the young lady at the front took care of me. They were able to give me a spot on quote and knew what the problem was. They went above and beyond and made repairs and sealed the yoke rather then charge me for a new one. Replaced the real seal, new transmission filter and gasket. The undercarriage of my Toyota Tundra was covered with transmission fluid and they took the time to wipe it down. I have lived in the tri-valley for 56 years and places like this are hard to find and I wished I discovered this shop sooner. Please try out this shop and let them work magic for you. Great price, professional and first class work; I promise you will be as happy as I am. Thank You, Ken Grant read more

My '99 VW Golf was having some serious transmission issues (i.e., revving really high, jerking into gear, etc.). Though I thought that the transmission might be shot, it turned out that the car had been leaking transmission fluid (for far too long). I appreciated Schuck's honesty and transparency throughout the entire process. Rather than trying to sell me on a transmission rebuild, they did what they could to get my vehicle up and running again without any unnecessary costs. My car runs so much better now, and it cost me less than $500, as opposed to $3800! Thank you, Robert and team! It is so refreshing to deal with an honest repair shop. If you have transmission issues, I would definitely recommend Schuck's. read more

Everyone was so helpful and considerate. I felt confident leaving my truck and they were great with giving me updates on the repairs. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend to friends and family. read more

Just picked up my 67 Chevelle. Jeff and his entire staff are AWSEOME! Explained to Jeff my existing issues and they address them with my transmission. They also fixed my shifter and adjusted my carburetor! Runs like a champ! I will bring my business and recommend to my friends, to Shucks Transmission! read more

As honest as auto repair gets. The employee helping me with a transmission leak suggested a cheap patch up job that would have no issue holding up in lieu of buying an entire gasket replacement. No issues since then for a VERY reasonable price. Thanks guys! read more

I took my car to Schucks to inspect a leak in the transmission. Unfortunately they found other problems as well. Jeff was very honest with me about the potential cost of repairs, which potentially saves me from spending money that could be a waste on an older car. I appreciate the honesty! read more

I took my vehicle to Shucks Transmission for transmission work after reviewing the online business referrals. Initially I was a little apprehensive since this was not a personal reference. Based on the good service and workmanship provided, I would definitely recommend the business. The thing that stuck with me the most was their honesty and the fact that they honored their warranty without issue. read more

If you need a gearhead that knows his stuff then come here. I have had the misfortune of needing transmission work of two Ford Explorers (a '95 and an '06) and the good furtune of being referred to Schucks. The '95 had already been to a quick and shifty guy in Pleasanton and after three years of return visits to the guy it was still screwed up. Larry over at Larry's Automotve referred me to Shucks and they got it right the first time. That was about six months ago. A few weeks back the front differential on the '06 also needed work. Schuck's worked on that and it's been running fine every since. I seriously hope I never need to see a transmission shop again--but if I do, I will be coming back. read more

I was not happy that I had to rebuild my transmission, but I was impressed with the service experience I had here. Jeff was really friendly and helpful explaining everything that was wrong and what needed repaired. They showed me exactly which parts failed - it was incredibly obvious. It was a learning experience for me, and I did not have to worry about my truck at night. I am very happy with the performance of my truck since the repairs at Schucks were completed. read more

I can't say enough about Schuck's! Quality work, they keep you updated on the repair and are super easy to work with. In addition to that they are extremely nice people. I highly recommend them! read more

The girl in the office tells you stuff to get you in the door. The service manager allows subpar work. They don.t use pan gaskets but use squirt owe gasket. Which pissed me off. I went there with a pan gadget leak... Guess what.... Month and half later it's leaking again. Was also told they would do a transmission full fluid replacement but lied... And only dropped the pan.... I don.t even know if I got a new trans filter and my magnet cleaned.... with that much deception. read more

We have been taking our cars to Schucks transmission for years & still same great service... the staff here in dublin are friendly & total professionals. if there is a problem they will fix it & get you back in your car quick!!! Highly recommend them!! read more

My son had a check engine light come on and it was because of the transmission, Jeff's team looked at this and evaluated that the transmission needed to be replaced. He was very honest and told us the good and the bad and how much we should be expecting to pay. Jeff spent time talking to me and my son and my son could not afford to get it repaired at this time, but Jeff was very honest and reliable in the service he gave us. I would definitely recommend them. read more

This was the first time I have been to this shop. I can't say enough about Jeff and his crew. Total professionals. Went beyond my expectations. I had my transmission replaced at a reasonable price and before they put the new transmission in I asked Jeff if he could try to find a engine oil leak I could not find. He called me and told me it was the o-ring on my cam sensing unit. I asked him how much to fix it and he said it was already fixed (no charge). He said we were there anyway so we fixed it. Wow, now that is customer service. Now my van is back like new. If you are needing your transmission replaced or any auto repair work, this is the place. I will always used this shop from now on. Thanks to Jeff and Alex and the crew!!! read more

Called , got me in within the week. Robert was very curious and professional. He kept in contact and asked my permission to proceed at all steps. Car was done in the time frame they quoted. Very nice experience! I highly recommend. Mary N. read more

A+ Customer service. Fast, quick, reliable, honest and not going to rip you a new one in your wallet. Recently - last week my car was not driving well and leaking fluids. Unable to drive my car and no one open to look at it I had it towed to Shucks Transmission. My car was left in the parking lot and key left for in the morning when the shop would re-open. I got a call from Ed Schuck the next morning letting me know everything he was going to do to the car to find out what was really going on with it. A few hours past and I got another call from Ed - Thank God - it was only a cooling line that broke from my transmission and a easy fix. He was so informative broke it all down for me in language I could understand and took care of fixing my car quick. If I ever have any issues again - Cross my fingers I don't - I will take it to Schucks. Thanks again to the team at Schucks Transmission for getting me and my family back on the road again. read more

I've brought both of my Toyotas to Schuck's. They are the shop that honest mechanics send their clients to for transmission work. You never have to worry about whether or not your transmission was serviced and/or repaired correctly. Transmissions are their specialty, but they also do other mechanical work to the same standard of excellence. Do yourself a favor. If you keep your cars and trucks as long as I do, get the transmissions serviced by people who know what they are doing. It's one of the most difficult things to get right, mechanically, so go to the experts. Great work at fair prices. What more do you want? read more

So your transmission just took a dump, yea I know, huge expense, tell me, I just dropped 6K. BLOWS! However if you want to take away some of that huge pain, then you need to go to Schuck's. Jeff was awesome fixed me up and went out of his way to lower the cost as much as possible. (My secret). Got the 3 year, 100,000 mile warranty cause I am running my FX35 till it just won't run. 2005 and hoping for another 12 years and another 190,000 miles. It was a little more expensive cause its AWD and Infiniti has all the computer controls housed in the tranny (damn progress), AND they found my front drive line was jacked, so that added to the cost to be replaced. No more steering wheel shimmy (wasn't the tire balance, checked that, wasn't out of alinement, checked that) Jeff found it! Painful find but Infiniti's are spendy. So long story short, (Sorry) take any transmission problem here, to SCHUCK'S. Hey if a bird dumps on your car SCHUCK's will even give you a free wash. THANKS SCHUCK'S! read more

While working on my 1956 Chevy Bel Air, my retired mechanic friend noticed that my car's transmission had a few leaks ('normal' for the Powerglide). I have used Schuck's in the past and called them. Jeff remembered my car and said I could bring it in the next day. Since the car and I were already in Castro Valley he agreed to let me drop it off that day. 2 days later 'Betsy' was leak free! Jeff and the entire team at Schuck's are the best! Friendly, excellent, personal service! They have no peers! I recommend Schuck's enthusiastically! read more

I looked up this place in yelp, read the previous comments and decided to give it a try. I must say, I am very pleased with the service. Everyone was friendly, all smiles. The team worked very quickly and efficiently. My Jetta was in and out in 2.5 hours, transmission service complete, and the price wasn't too bad! Definitely would recommend them if you are ever in need! read more

These guys (and girls) have the utmost integrity. I've brought my Audi S5 and my T&C mini van multiple times. Not only do they treat me with respect and do amazing work, they don't recommend expensive repairs if they're not necessary. I trust this shop and recommend them to any of my friends and family. They came recommended to me and they delivered. Plus, they always give my dog treats and love. That's a plus! read more

Like other reviewers say, Schuck's is the best. This is a busy shop and there is a good reason why. They do good work, and they stand behind it. They rebuilt the transmission on my 1966 Mustang and did an outstanding job. When it developed a small leak a couple months later, I called and they said "there should be no leaks" and that I should bring it in. They fixed it right away and told me that they made the mistake of using a modern gasket on the pan rather than a cork gasket and these cars only seem to like the cork. When I asked what I owed they told me "this is all part of it" and there is no charge to take care of this. They also told me to bring it back if any other issues come up. Bottom line, if you need transmission work Schuck's is top notch. read more

My regular mechanic recommended I go to Schuck's due to my transmission leaking oil. I had never been there before. Though the shop was inconvenient to me being about 30 miles away, I'm so glad I had them work on my car. They put in a gasket and o-ring as well as replaced a couple of sensors (check engine light identified them) and basically serviced my transmission. All the things I put down are listed on the invoice and I don't really know what any of them are. I'm just glad I went to Schuck's because my car is running smoothly, shifting flawlessly and sounds like it just came off the dealer's lot!. Thank you Robert and crew for a job well done. I recommend anyone looking at his yelp page to choose Schuck's. You can trust them and they will do a great job. read more

I had my transmission go out on my work truck last Thursday. When I arrived I was greeted with a smile. I was in and out in just a few minutes. 4 days later at most I got a call saying my truck was ready to go! I arrived and they pulled my truck up for me. They replaced all necessary and updraded as they saw fit for durability. I would highly recommend you bring your car or truck here to get your transmission fixed. Very high quality organization!! Its a transmission shop that provides the quality of service of a high end reataurant! read more

Schuck's is awesome! They replaced the transmission in my 2001 Acura MDX. They did an excellent job, and my car is running so well! Thank you to all of the great people at Schuck's! Thank you for exceptional service. read more

I brought my 1992 Coachmen Catalina Motorhome in for service a few years back and was really pleased with the flexibility with working on the motorhome platform. It's remarkably hard to find someone in the Tri-Valley who can work on a Class C's brakes or do a proper tune-up. read more

I dont trust many people or many mechanics . Howerver this place is different . You can trust these guys . thats rare in the world and this business. I bought my wife a bmw and the trans seemed to be making noise . I thought oh boy this is gonna be trouble . then I went here and after taking a look told me the exhaust was just rattling and told me the tranny was fine . I appreciate honest people so had to write a yelp. read more

We own a 2003 Honda Odyssey and had to replace the Transmission in 2011, took it here and they said they would rebuild it for 3,200. Get it done now fast forward to 2013 and guess what more problems with the Transmission call and are told since we are returning customers we would "get a break" only 2,600. What a joke. Don't go here. Find a better place. We found a place in Union City that would do the work for 2,400 plus 3 year warranty. Not like Schuck's who gives you one year. read more

I took my truck here at the recommendation of my mechanic as my truck would not shift into higher gears (t would shift into second, but rarely into third or overdrive.) Schuck's wrote an estimate for $2,500 to $2,700 for a rebuild of my transmission. I then had my truck towed to another shop where they replaced the TV cable, replaced the rear main seal (as a precaution) and got me back on the road for $600. I have now driven the truck over 1,000 miles including a 500 mile trip largely on freeways and another 500 miles of short distance driving and all is well. Schuck's had the wrong diagnosis and could have cost me $2,000 which I did not need to spend. read more

If you own a classic and like the way it looks, dont take it here!

If you want timely, professional, fair, and efficient transmission repair, this is your place. From my first conversation with Alex to multiple discussions with Jeff, I could not be happier with the communication and repair of my transmission (2014 Ford Raptor). When I dropped off my truck to get a diagnosis, Jeff was upfront and honest with me about the process. Once determining an issue between fourth and fifth gear, he suggested dropping the pan to look at the fluid to see what it looked like. After finding metal particles in the pan, the best course of action was to do a rebuild. Again, Jeff is a great communicator, explains the entire process, and gave me updates to ensure I knew the cost. Although you never want to spend money to replace a transmission, I can honestly say it was money well spent. My truck shifts better than new, and I am confident that I will have years of spirited driving ahead. Thank you, Jeff and crew; you're the best! read more

Still driving just beautifully by keeping the overdrive off (I'm not driving on steep roads anyway), can't tell you how happy I am to have saved the $$$ instead of listening to the recommendation from this place. read more

Brought my car in a few weeks ago after experiencing some issues with the transmission during a road trip. It took about 2 hours for the initial diagnosis, and I was told that I needed a part from the dealer; we scheduled for a week later. I brought my car in at 7AM and was called back about 1PM. They removed the transmission pan, replaced a faulty sensor, and serviced the entire transmission. This included a fluid drain & fill, gasket & seal replacement, and transmission cleaning. Everything (parts/labor) came in slightly UNDER estimate, which was already an amazing deal. The entire experience was wonderful and entirely on point. I HIGHLY recommend Schuck's Transmission. The best part is definitely that all this was done weeks ago and my car is running great. Fingers crossed nothing else goes wrong anytime soon, but now I know where to go if it does. read more

I have the highest respect for the service that I consistently have receive from Schuck's Transmissions. Both Ed and Jeff are honest and fair when diagnosing the problem and necessary repairs. I was very fortunate when a friend referred me to Schuck's Transmission Service. My 2008 Cadillac STS was making a grinding sound when turning and it was getting louder. I had only taken my car to the dealership for routine maintenance, but of course, now my warranty had just expired! I was worried about getting good serrvice for a decent price. The professional service I received, quickly put my worries to rest. In no time my car was running great again! And since I still had money in my purse, I had my son's cars in for repairs also. Both cars were 10+ years old. One they could fix and the other, they honestly told me, was not worth repairing. I recommend Schuck's Transmission Service for all your automotive repairs. I have complete confidence that they will give you great service and not take your money if they can't! read more

Great place and great customer service. Always recommends the right thing. No rip offs as in no extra charges like other places do, to the point charges and recommendations. read more

I have a 13 year old car and I'm so glad I was able to find such a great shop to help keep the thing alive. My transmission went out, and instead of buying a new one from the factory, they opened it up and rebuild the inside for cheaper. They also did a coolant flush. These guys do it all, and it's so nice working with them. Try them once and they'll feel like family. read more

I'm super happy with the very thorough diagnosis Schuck's gave my Volvo XC90. It is nice to get such one on one personal attention and have someone take the time to really explain and help me understand how my transmission works. The shop is very clean and nicely maintained. A+++ read more

Good, honest customer service. My car was towed here because I suspected an issue with the transmission. They ran a free diagnostic to determine the problem wasnt with the transmission, and did me the courtesy of getting my car over to another shop nearby that I was considering for engine repairs. I really appreciated that they seemed to care and weren't just trying to make money off my situation. read more
