You will get an honest assessment on what your vehicle needs transmission wise. He does not claim to be the cheapest, but his work is of the highest quality. If you want cheap, there are plenty of options out there if you want it done, right Alvie is your guy. He has been local to Jacksonville for a number of years so ask around and you'll find that very few people know more about transmissions than Alvie.

The next shop I was at said word for word "the people who installed this engine did some shady things." Beware

Sadly, a couple of months ago after hiring these young guys and leaving a glowing review for them…read moreafter they replaced my front brake pads and rotors because I had sought mechanic help for squealing brakes. Needless to say after they replaced said pads and rotors the brakes continued to squeal. They suggested it would go away "shortly after driving a bit", but if not, they'd return and "oil them". When the squealing continued "after a bit", I contacted them again and heard nothing back. I tried again and was told they'd been sick, but promised to stop by that evening. They never showed. I contacted them again, but did not receive the courtesy of a response. Now I question the money I paid that did not solve the problem and their lack of responsiveness or accountability for stopping my brakes from squealing and following through with what they promised to do to make it right. I no longer recommend these guys so please disregard my earlier glowing review!

They determined I was actually having brake issues. They could have seriously padded their till that day, but provided a service that was the least expensive of the things the issue could have been. I wouldn't have known any better if they told me it was one thing and repaired something different. They kept me informed the entire time of their progress and their completion time, then followed up to ensure all was well. They told me I would need more work done to the brakes, but it could hold off. Now is the time for that work. If I were still close to their store, it would not be a question where I'd be going. Instead, I'm debating convenience over peace of mind

I was charged almost $400 and told the issue was fixed. About 10 miles after leaving, my car started running hot. I immediately called the shop and was told, "That's strange, it didn't run hot when you brought it in." I had the car towed back. Three days later, I was told the car was ready. When I arrived to pick it up, the car would not start, which has never been an issue before. Again, I was told, "That's strange, it started when I drove it this morning." While driving the car home--less than 10 minutes from the shop--the vehicle began producing heavy white smoke, which I later learned indicates a blown head gasket. My car was returned to me in much worse condition than when I brought it in. I'm not sure what was done to my vehicle, but based on my experience, I strongly recommend doing your homework and getting a second opinion before taking your car here.

They also damaged the undercarriage of my car jacking it up on the lift I even have photos. All in all going to the shop at $500 repair cost me over $1,000 of their incompetence. ​
