Definitely not your typical mechanic if any kind of shop, that Im used to seeing anyway. Very clean, and most of the personality of those employed here are very nice. Wayne were always enlightening and just delightful all around.

Great job! Their estimate was accurate and fair. The work was great - my transmission needed to be rebuilt and it works better than ever. They even got it done early. Id recommend them to anyone.

They rebuilt my Mazda 3s transmission. Despite it being the year 2020 I got it back in a reasonable amount of time. Now the Mazda drives like a brand new car! A pleasure to drive.

I have a large family and this business has been our choice for more than 25 years. We also consult them before we go car shopping. Glenn is a born again practicing Christian and his team follow his lead. I have refered my friends and church family to them. We have no complaints.

I was referred here for a potential transmission issue. Randy was awesome!! They got my car in towards the end of the day on Friday so I wouldn’t have to go all weekend and Monday (Labor Day) not knowing what was wrong with my car. Couldn’t have had a better experience, and it turns out the issue wasn’t my transmission. Randy and Transmission Magician are the best! Thank you so much!

Was referred to them after purchasing a car to fix a oil pressure issue, the person who answered the phone was very rude and short with me for asking hours of operations. I will be taking my business elsewhere

I dont say this about many places but there should be 6 stars. I have many vehicles and all of them have been serviced by Transmission Magicians for the past 23 yrs. Mr. Glenn and his team are the most professional and polite people youll ever speak to. Great job on my 1995 Z28,1982 Jeep CJ7 ( Complete transmission rebuild),and 2016 GMC. They make every job personal and not make you feel like just a number. I highly recommend this team to anyone. Use them once and you will be like me and never have to look anywhere else again.

Ive had them do transmission work/servicing for probably about 8 years now and each time Ive been there theyve not only done a superb job they were very courteous and friendly! Just looking across the shop floor it looks very well kept, orderly and professional which to me speaks volumes. The waiting room is very nice as well.If you need any transmission work done to your vehicle I highly recommend Transmission Magicians! 👍👍🙂

Great pricing, friendly knowledgeable staff, and such a clean atmosphere! The cleanest shop and lobby I have ever seen for mechanics in my life! It is obvious they care about their business and in turn will care about your vehicle! They had my mothers car done in less than 24 hours and didn’t price gauge the repair. She says it is now driving like the day she drove it off the Honda lot! You will not regret going to this wonderful shop!

Review №26

I took my car in after I had had the transmission solenoid replaced & it wouldnt shift in any gear.After the day of waiting for them to look at it they told me the new solenoid was a Bad Part & to exchange & replace it.After doing just that...the car still has the same problem.Clearly they didnt actually get deep into seeing what the REAL problem is or even trying to figure it out.Very disappointed in this shop especially after all the great things I had seen & heard about them.

Review №27

These guys are good, real good. Many friends and co-workers told us so and we believe them now.IRandy offered to diagnose our 06 Jeep Liberty renegade at no charge.We already knew the transmission had pooped itself, so werent surprised when he said it needed a transmission. Already knowing what other options were, I Was surprised at the price he quoted for rebuilding, which is reasonable and fair.Glenn did an excellent job on a tired old 42rle (3-plug, the ones the factory oopsied).They use newer, updated parts, not the cheaper chnesium stuff.The way it drives after the rebuild is also pretty impressive.They were willing to spend a couple of minutes talking over our options - they stay busy yet have time for a customers dumb questions, not just your money. The place is clean and well kept.--------------FYI:I had a toyota E90 rebuilt at another shop several years ago, and got what I thought was an affordable low price - on a tight budget you sacrifice. That shop walked the talk. Have you ever sat on a washing machine full of bowling balls?, that was the Corolla at a stoplight. Had I known about Transmission Magicians then, Id have saved up the extra few hundred and came here. Peace of mind for your wife and kids is hard to price out, but math is math.Just my three nickels worth.Its hard to say just how impressed I am with Transmission Magicians and everyones attitudes without sounding like a bot.Im not a bot or paid endorsement, I try to leave useful and accurate reviews that myself or someones aunt Helen would understand if reading them, and not fluff or trash, otherwise its just a waste of everyones time.I would hope youd do as much.

Review №32

Thank goodness for this transmission shop. I used their service department about 2.5 years ago to diagnose a shifting problem on my wifes Jeep Liberty. They test drove, diagnosed correctly a non-transmission issue. (no charge and referred me to go to my mechanic at Pauls automotive, my trusted mechanic, to fix the issue. It was a throttle position sensor). I was impressed with the honesty of the Transmission Magician shop at that time.(fast forward to this week Dec 2018). A different vehicle. My wifes Jeep Wrangler Unlimited 4X4 Sahara was in need of a full service of the drive train. A Jeep she had purchased recently, the service involved the front and rear differentials, also automatic transmission, and the transfer case fluids needed replacement. (The 2012 Wrangler has a hybrid German/American transmission that requires a filter change in addition to fluid replacement). The shop gave me a great price estimate and the service was performed on a day I could drop the car off. The price of the work was as quoted and the vehicle was ready as promised. I was impressed with both the service managers attitude and the technical staffs knowledge that performed the service on our 4X4 Wrangler. Well done. I will use this shop for all my transmission issues in the future.

Ive heard great things about transmission magician, so i called for a quote. They will not bench build a transmission. So if you have the transmission out of the vehicle and need someone to rebuild it, they wont do it. You have to bring them the whole vehicle. The guy I spoke to on the phone had an attitude about it too. So if you can pull the transmission and flush the coolant lines and put it back in urself to save money, it will do you no good here. I gave the one star for the poor attitude when I inquired about this.

Review №35

Two weeks before bringing my car here I got into a minor accident on my driver side and Joe Hudson’s collision fixed and repainted the entire driver side of my car bumper to bumper.I took my car here to have a noise checked out. Turns out it wasn’t transmission related and I got a better quote somewhere else.My car automatically locks after a minute or so once you close all the doors and the day after I picked my car up from Transmission Magicians I noticed dings and scratches in my fresh paint all around my front driver side door. They didn’t say anything to me about it when I picked it up and they didn’t call to let me know they locked the keys in my car or give me the option to have a professional open my car. Instead they chipped a brand new paint job and hoped I wouldn’t notice.

I went to Transmission Magician late in the day after I left Mike’s transmission shop on Highway 90 where I had the worst experience I’ve ever had as a customer anywhere I was frustrated and angry because my car was still not fixed after a week, as soon as I got out of my car I was immediately approached and treated like a long time customer I was shown into a lovely waiting room that reminded me of someone’s living room after a few minutes a technician came in he was very professional very friendly asked me questions about my vehicle but what I like most was that he talk to me instead of at me I got my vehicle back ASAP the price was great if this was a full mechanic shop I would never take my vehicle anywhere else except to them And as an extra bonus I was driven home when I had to leave my vehicle at the shop I would absolutely recommend anyone having any kind of transmission problems to take it to them you will not be disappointed and you will remember that customer service does exist

Glenn Hilton does great work. Hes the one and only person who does our transmission work. Hes done 5 for us so far and we have not had problem number one out of them. His shop is immaculate, even when something is spilled it is mopped up with a mop and bucket, never with oil dry. He is very time efficient and never keeps a vehicle longer than necessary.

Took my car to 2 different locations before arriving here. Fausak on Hwy 90 couldnt find the problem after 2 visits on two different days. Also went to Pepboys in Tillmans Corner. I was told there that it was the passenger side CV axle and that it would cost over $700 parts and labor. Finally, I arrive to Transmission Magician. They take the time to really take things apart to truly find the problem. (Left front wheel bearings) Parts and labor under $250. Thanks guys... You now have all of my future car business.

Im Roxanne and I was told by a mechanic that my transmission was fried! I called around to ck prices of a used transmission at some local salvage yards and was astounded at the price! I then called Transmission Magicians and spoke with Ollie. He was super friendly and ask questions. He ask if I could possibly bring it in for a free check and told me it sounded like my brake locking up. I brought it in and that is exactly what it was! This is an honest business and the entire crew is amazing! Their reputation preceded them and that is why I chose to call here, but Ollie had me convinced that it was the right place just by speaking with him. The waiting area was amazing and comfortable and the shop and grounds were just as amazing! Alice at the desk actually became my friend the short time I was there. Just amazing, never saw this before!

The staff at Transmission Magicians is amazing, A+! My car broke down on the road as I was driving to Texas from Florida and I ended up taking it to this shop. They were able to do the work on my car and get me on the road again within a few days even tough they had many cars they were working on at the time. Randy, the manager, was specially helpful. Always communicating with me on the status of the car and even giving me recommendations on where to go eat while in town. I highly recommend this shop.

Great service and even better people. I had a 4x4 Blazer that started acting up. I took it to a shop and he said he had no idea what the issue was. I told Mr Glenn what it was doing. He had it towed to his shop and fixed in less than 2 days. He also rebuilt my Yukons transmission when it messed up. Cant say enough about him and his staff.

Broke down while out of town. Transfer case needed to be replaced. Took 5 days to repair and after picked up I noticed transfer shift lever was loose and not engaging. When I called the shop they *LITERALLY* told me they thought it was a woman’s truck and I wouldn’t be using the 4 wheel drive. WTH!! Also left bolts loose and was rude about the whole situation. STAY AWAY.

Twice I been to this shop and can not say enough about how much I appreciate them. First occasion I had a major transmission problem. They suggested that it should still be under warranty from the dealership and it was. Saving me thousands of dollars. Second time thinking it was a transmission problem. Turned out to be minor. Saving me lots of money. Both times they could have been dishonest and made money but they chose honesty. Thank you Transmission Magician.

Looking for help about my car, all I got was excuses about they had 30 cars to work on and they were one man short on help. At that time my part could have been $200.00. now I need a $3-4000 transmission. Not including tax and labor. Thanks for nothing.

I love this shop they treated me like a friend from the minute I pulled up asking a milling questions about my vehicle. They are such good people and that’s so hard to find in this field of work.Glenn was a straight forward honest person from the start and he could have totally taken advantage of my situation but he didn’t he helped me understand the problem and gave me a fair price. If I ever need any transmission work ever or any of my family does we will forever take our vehicles here. True to life honest mechanic.
