Always an excellent experience here! Recently took my mothers vehicle over to get checked out prior to a cross country drive. They very clearly have the customers best interest in mind. Fair pricing, no pressure to add unnecessary work to the vehicle, and happy to answer any questions I had about what was being done. A great, local family owned business that we will continue to use for years to come. 10/10 will always recommend.
Matt stayed in touch, was kind, friendly and processional. Both he and his lead mechanic, Larry are clearly knowledgeable and skilled in their work with transmissions. I feel confident that this transmission will last for many years longer than if I had paid more for a factory built transmission that was put in at another auto shop that didnt have the expertise of Thurston County Transmission. This was the best choice to address my transmission problem. I am very grateful.
Great service! Prompt, honest service at a great price, I will definitely be coming back in for any and all transmission issues. These guys were super helpful when I brought my 20 year old Tacoma in for transmission help. Many thanks!
These guys have done great work both times I’ve used them and were quick to refer me somewhere trustworthy when the work I needed wasn’t in their wheelhouse. Matt is always straightforward on how the price works and does a great job of keeping you in the loop if anything changes. I always recommend their shop to anyone who asks and will 100% be using their services again.
Matt was very thorough in sharing different options. He did not push for expensive repairs. And offered a super generous rate for the diagnosis. Great service!
I was told to come here expecting to spend thousands on a rebuilt transmission but turns out all I needed was maintenance. Im super glad I chose this place because they were honest about what needed to be done and completed the work quickly. I am very satisfied with their service and highly recommend anyone having transmission issues to come here because they will take very good care of you!
Dropped off the truck to get diagnosed. Friendly service. Hopefully my transmission does not need to be replaced.
My car had a bad idle one morning and they diagnosed a stuck valve on it. They were straight up on the estimated price and duration of the repair. It was quality work and had a great customer experience throughout the whole process. Would recommend to anyone and will be a return customer.
Unfortunately i don’t recommend this place of business. The owner is very unprofessional and my car completely stopped working. Very poor quality. I will not be taking my review down because you continue to threaten to sue me.
Very knowledgeable and good guus took good car of my wife car and it tuns better now then when new
Fast and Quality Service. Matt helped me out over the phone and got me in the day of when my reverse went out on my truck and drive was acting odd. Called me a few days later with a diagnosis and within about a week Larry had everything done and had me on the road again. Also told me about other stuff they saw that wasnt the transmission that I should get looked at. Wouldnt hesitate to use them again!
They are a very busy shop for good reason. You may have to wait a bit to get an appointment or to get work done, but you will not be disappointed.
Very honest and helpful, not many shops left like this...definitely would recommend coming here
I had my brakes done at Thurston County Transmission and the service was great! Everyone was friendly and the price was fair.
Great service,better prices none better
Thurston County Transmission is always so fast and fair. I Will forever take all my vehicles to them for diagnostics and repairs.
I have used Thurston County Transmission for the last 27 years and they have always provided quality service at reasonable rates. I wont trust anyone else with my vehicle.
From the first call this shop has exceeded expectations. Matt is professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. He explained what to expect and kept me updated throughout the process. As this is a big ticket expense, I was happy to have a team with so much experience rebuilding my transmission. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone in need of transmission work. They also were a better price than the other two shops I priced, and provided a better warranty.
Friendly and when I needed a new battery they had what I needed. Wonderful business and great customer service.
Hello, i don’t recommend this place for repairs. The owner is very I’m unprofessional, my car no longer works, I’ve asked to work with him and he just continues to threaten to sue me. I’ve noticed he’s done that with others as well. Just save the heart ache and go somewhere else. Update: here is proof i did come to your place of business.
Honest, dependable and customer service at its finest. Jason and I would like to thank you very much for a fine job. Just got the car back yesterday but if anything did happen, I know they stand by there work. Thank you
We were on the road far from home and had transmission problems with our 2018 Ford Escape. We limped it into their shop. We were desperate .It was determined our transmission was in need of total rebuild. They called Ford for us and determined it was covered under warranty but must be taken to a Ford garage to avoid a high repair bill. They helped us with arranging a tow truck and a rental car so we could be on our way. The whole staff was kind and helpful above and beyond . It was well worth the minimal service charge for diagnosing the problem. They could have easily taken advantage of our situation but their honesty and integrity was exceptional . I would highly recommend them to anyone .👍
My brother took his truck here to have them look at the transmission and they ended up blowing his engine and haven’t made it right yet! Definitely stay away
Matt and the guys are great. They were one of several transmission shops that I called and right over the phone Matt gave me a quote that was a couple thousand dollars cheaper than everyone else’s and stuck to it. Honest guys through and through. Gave me a brand basically brand new and upgraded transmission for cheap than the others and with a lifetime warranty. Would recommend them to anyone
Took my vehicle in for some work and they ended up blowing my engine. Refused to make it right or even try to work with me. Terrible customer service. AVOID AT ALL COST
Old fashioned honest service. They could have told me my transmission was shot and needed a new one, but was honest and told me that it was a sensor. Appreciate the honesty and information. I will schedule all my services here from now on. Thanks!
These guys are great. Took my ram 2500 in, my 48re transmission was having issues. I called them and they were able to get my truck in the same day. I had an aftermarket extended warranty which usually adds extra hassle but these guys handled it perfectly. They were able to get the transmission built for what I wanted to do with the truck and still have it covered by the warranty. I really appreciated that I was updated on the status of the rebuild often. To top it all off they got the truck done earlier than I was expecting and they found a water pump leak the day before I picked up the truck and had it replaced and covered under the same warranty deductible. I am very happy with the end result, my truck feels like it got a new life. If you are looking for a reliable, reasonable, honest shop take my advice and look no further.
Now, this is a story all about howMy life got flipped-turned upside downAnd Id like to take a minuteJust sit right thereIll tell you how my truck had to be brought in for repair.In eastern Montana is where I drove and playedOn the prairie was where I spent most of my daysChillin out maxin relaxin all coolAnd all shootin off with a camera at storms that were coolWhen a couple of gears that were up to no goodStarted making trouble in my neighborhoodI got in one little jam and I got scaredSo I took it to a shop where the prices were fairIt was fixed with a wrench and I drove day after daypacked up my suit case and moved awayu2028I revved up the truck and made it without a ticket.I got to Yelm and said, I might as well kick it.First class, yo this is radDrinking orange juice out of a Bel-Jar glass.Is this what the people of Yelm living like?Hmm this might be alright.But wait I hear more gear trouble and all thatThis is the trouble I don’t need where I’m atI dont think soWhere to go, oh I know whereu2028I hope theyre prepared for this truck with careWell, when I showed up Matt came outThere was a dude really knew what he was talking aboutThese guys at the shop are the coolest I have metThey were fair and straight forwardNo hidden fees and honestly was what you getI sprang with the quickness like lightning, disappearedI left the shop and had no fearI was told we will get that truck in to gearIf anything I could say that this service was rareBut Matt said Nah, forget it - ‘we just care’I pulled up to the shop it wasn’t lateu2028And I yelled to Matt Yo homes how’s she running?’I looked at my truckI was in total repairA smooth running transmission fixed with careSeriously though. You want something done right with nothing hidden, AND they will tell you everything that is wrong under your vehicle, these are the guys you want to take your car or truck too. Not only did they fix my transmission, they also fixed a bad axle. For as much work that needed to be done the price was more than fair and it was honest pricing right up front. I seriously can not believe a transmission could shift so smooth.
I am absolutely thrilled that I found these guys!! I did a lot of shopping around to find the best of the best after my transmission started going out(three months after buying it!). They got me in quickly and kept me up to date on how it was all going. They were very clear on the price and even gave a Military discount! Which you don’t normally find at auto shops. It took two weeks, which is totally fine when it comes to something as important as a transmission. They even provided a lifetime warranty!!! My car sounds better now, than when I bought it! They are all very friendly and one of the guys even showed me how to pop my hood. I could not figure it out for the life of me! I wouldn’t give my money to anyone else. Come here!! You won’t regret it!!
The gentleman was very nice and helpful with everything, even helping save us some money. Rare breed indeed if you need help this is the place to be.
These guys got my vehicle in their shop right away when most shops turned me away due to the type of car I had. They gave an evaluation and quote same day and got the clutch changed on my mini cooper faster than I could have imagined. They were very knowledgeable and professional, and have earned a customer for life! I will tell everyone I know, This is the only place to go!. Thanks to all involved.
Great place Its worth the wait knowledgeable staff and honest Theyre usually busy due to the work they provide
Im a real customer with Thurston county transmission and I have never been more satisfied with a place to work on cars its hard to find a place that is reliable trustworthy I picked up my truck today and Im so impressed I give these guys 10 Stars thank you thank you for putting Faith back into humanity. They kept me informed every step of the the price was fair and they looked at the whole truck and told us things that we knew were needing fixed and told us what we could do later.and what needed done now thank
Great customer service, great warranty. These guys stand behind their work. I was referred by coworkers who all had great experiences as well!
Great guys that stand by their work. I tip my hat to these gentlemen.
They know what theyre doing and they are very fair! Matt is terrific, honest and will be forthcoming about any repairs needed and the costs. Im shocked and grateful to know that there still are some honest auto repair services! Thanks Matt!! Highly recommend this business!
Took my vehicle there due to transmission issues and was quickly greeted with a smile and kept my vehicle the same day to diagnose it and get a quote. Called me that afternoon and came up with a plan and price I could work with. Definitely worth the amount I paid for the transmission rebuild. You will not find any other place that will offer lifetime warranty on the transmission rebuild after the amazing job they did. Thank you for an amazing experience.
Thurston County Transmission was awesome. I have been driving for over a week now and my car is running terrific no more slipping of my clutch. Matt the Manager even went the extra mile with some parts he needed to get my car repaired and back to me as fast as possible. The price was very reasonable much cheaper than what the dealer wanted. I will definitely use them again if I need transmission work done on my car.
They worked on several of my cars from rebuilding transmissions to replace axles. Thurston County Transmission is the best repair shop in the area. I have been a customer for years and will continue to do so. Prices and warranty on their work is worth every penny.
I cant tell you how long it has been that I have had troubles with shifting into 5th gear. I gave them a call and he wanted to look at it right away. I dropped it off at night and put keys in night box, he called me the next day with an estimate to fix. The service, friendliness and quality of their work is worth it. They seemed so busy and still made me a priority. I cant thank them enough for having my car back and running!
This place is top notch. I have been dealing with an intermittent issue with my truck for several years now. I’ve already taking it to multiple shops that were not able to resolve the issue. Thurston county transmission was able to identify the issue and resolve it promptly. Super honest group with great customer service. I highly recommend them!!!
I love the service and diagnostic skills they possess for all mechanical issues. Few places show the integrity these folks have demonstrated over and over to our family.
They did my 88 yotas w56b 5 spd transmission full rebuild over a year ago and did an excellent job, cost me both my arms and legs but did a very solid job and even repainted it for me. Deffinetly a quality shop I absolutley recommend but only if you got a full wallet
We just moved to the area a month ago and upon arrival, the transmission on our family minivan needed work. After researching my options, I took the van here and was impressed from the very beginning with the service my family received. What I appreciated the most was the amount of communication between them and myself while my van was in the shop. They always called when the said they were going to and gave me detailed information in regards to my vans needs. I highly recommend Thurston County Transmission!
If you are looking for honest, extremely courteous and top notch auto mechanics; look no further. I had a unique situation when it came to rebuilding my transmission and I’m so glad I chose this family owned company to help me through it. They truly care about this community they serve and stand behind their work 100%! I will not take my vehicle anywhere else! I’m now a customer for life at Thurston County Transmission. Thank you for everything you guys did for me! My Honda now drives beautifully again!! 🙏😁
My ‘go to’ shop! These guys are super solid, trustworthy, and reasonable . They have always gone out of their way to make sure I’m a happy customer and I’ve always appreciated the extra care and attention. Thanks for making the roads and drivers a happier place!
Best place around for knowledgeable, quality, and honest work. The service is like no other! Matt was Amazingly friendly, and caring. I had gotten a quote from a different place of $5000 and Matt then quoted me $500 and the final bill was within $3 of his quote. Big difference huh!?? I am so thankful I took my friends recommendation and saw Matt and I will definitely be back!!
This place was recommended by a family friend, so I checked the reviews and decided it was a good place to go. IT IS FANTASTIC! We are super pleased with our rebuilt transmission (lifetime warranty) as well as the phenomenal customer service - thanks for everything guys!
I brought my car in for a Transmission diagnostic my car was there for two hours. The shop manager told me that I might have a pump seal leak. He quoted me a price of 1500 to 3000 and tried to get me to believe it needed to be overhauled. He charged me @ $60 for an incomplete diagnostic. I took my car to Aamco where it was properly diagnosed in just a couple minutes for free. The complete job, including having a new fuel pump cost me @$1350 at Aamco. I would not recommend Thurston county transmission for your car repairs.
I have dealt with many auto shops over the years and the quality of service I received today was by among the very best. I will be referring others to this amazing place. Thurston county tranmission owners: you hire great people and run a first class business!
These folks are super helpful and very professional. They stand behind all their work and will make sure that everything is 100% done before they send your vehicle with you. Its one of the last places around where you can get a transmission built from the ground up with 35+ years of experience backing their skills up. You will not be disappointed!!!!UPDATE: Found myself in need of car car again and I didnt hesitate to come see these folks again!! Affordable, quick and done right! I wont go anywhere else!
Mike was really personable and my whole experience with them was swift and enjoyable. I will continue to go to them for all my car troubles. Thanks, guys!
I will forever be a loyal customer. Our Mini Cooper repair was going to cost thousands and they MANUFACTURED a part that saved us and its still working great! We also just got our Ford Freestyle repaired for a good $1k less than we expected due to their hard work finding the best deal in parts and creative work. I hate getting cars worked on because I feel like I have to be weary of being taken financially. I trust these guys and it feels good to know Ill get the best deal I can with QUALITY work.
I have written only one other review...ever. I went to Thurston County Transmission to have the transmission in my Mustang serviced because of the reviews that I read and I was not disappointed. R.J. at the front was knowledgeable, friendly and professional. Every detail from time quoted to cost were right on. I always hate when you have an appointment and your car sits for an hour before they pull it in a bay. Not the case here. Larry, the owner, has more knowledge and experience than probably anyone in town. I had complete faith that my car was in better hands than my own. Often times, I feel like I should just do the work myself. Keep up the good work.
Great place, honest assessment, and quality service.
My car was making a ticking sound so I went in and had it diagnosed. They were fast and friendly. I highly recommend
I had my transmission service done on my Mercedes Benz. I am totally satisfied with their quality service and fair prices. They do extraordinary work and go above and beyond what they have to do with no extra charges. They found other problems in the car by using their state of the art computer system while test driving the car. The technicians are very proficient and honest.
Thurston County Transmission is Awesome. A friend had recommended them as professional, knowledgeable, friendly, efficient and reasonable in costs. And they proved to be all that… and more. There is a collaborative system at their shop where the front desk/appointment manager and the mechanics work together to efficienlty solve the problems that are presented. I observed them all working together in order to quickly solve different customer’s personal needs and problems. It is obvious the whole crew take pride in their work and do their best to save the customer any undue costs. My vehicle’s problem was due to a mistake by the service department of a major Dealership. The mistake was shown and clearly explained to me. I then informed the Dealership of their service mistake and I have now been reimbursed by the Dealership for the costs I paid to Thurston County Transmission. Additionally, knowing this company is able to work on most other mechanical problems other than transmissions, they are my “Go To” place for any future repairs.
Great service!!! They fit our van in short notice and were able to get us back on the road quickly. They were straight forward, and very accurate with the estimate vs: invoice. Before having a dealer do anything, I would always check with these guys first. They follow up with any questions or concerns promptly and value customers. Thank you Thurston County Transmission for helping us during an unfortunate break down.
This place is great. They know what they are doing and customer service is incredible!
This is our go-to transmission shop. Theyve rebuilt a transmission for my Ford Expedition, they rebuilt the transmission in my brothers diesel box truck, and have performed routine transmission service for us on several occasions. Recently, I took my Ram diesel work truck in for a suspected rear main seal leak, and a transmission service. As soon as the truck was on the rack, it was apparent that I had more problems than a leaky main seal, and Matt called me right away to recommend I sort out the engine issues before spending money on transmission service for a truck that might be out of commission for a couple of months. I wish the shop that rebuilt my engine had been as honest and conscientious as TCT.
Let me start this off by saying this company has put together a super team, from the front office to the people in the shop. Everyone just wants to get you back on the road with a life time warranty.I had a trans rebuild on my truck back in June. A few days ago i had a transmission code come up. I called the shop at 4pm and they allowed to bring it in the next day to get looked at. While it was at there I went to the gym, I came back after my work out to the shop and took the truck home with me codes read and cleared with the most likely culprit taken care of. on my drive home the truck seemed to replicate the problem, I called them back and made an appointment to leave it with them the next work day.I have no doubt in my mind that I will be taken care of, the people in the front and nice and educated and they stand behind the work they do with a warranty they respect.**update**Month or so later truck still was giving me codes. Truck went back with them. NOW THIS IS THE IMPORTANT PART!! This time the truck was left at the shop and hooked up to monitors while Larry and his team kept a close eye on it. I cant express how much i appreciate this team. the problem was not even necessarily their fault but are still willing to work with me to get it fixed. The ECU (main computer) is grounding its self, or lack of grounding, has caused the problem. If you have any transmission problems these are the people you need to see. It has been a few city bus rides to get to and from the shop for me but I made a good choice by picking the right shop to do the job.
My 98 4Runner wasnt shifting properly and brought it in to TCT because of all the great reviews on here. Definitely lived up to the reviews! Great customer service from Jason. Took a couple hours for diagnosis and had my 4Runner back the next morning. Shifts great now! Very satisfied with their work. Thank you!
I am a Systems Administrator and web developer who was online looking for someone to help me with my BMW. I read some great reviews of Thurston County Transmission and decided to take a chance. Could not have been more pleased and impressed with my experience. Rather than taking advantage of a situation many shops regularly abuse, Thurston County Transmission chose the honest path and in doing so has earned a customer for life. I will recommend Thurston County Transmission to anyone looking for a trustworthy vehicle repair of any magnitude. I will do my best to send as many others their way as possible, as it was so very well stated in another review - the world could use more people like Larry at Thurston County Transmission.
We were fortunate to have our school bus towed to Thurston County Transmissions. The staff and the technicians handled the repair of our vechicle expertly and quickly so we could get the bus back into service at our school. Jason the repair coordinator explained the process and answered all the questions I had. I would highly recommend this business. They not only do transmissions but many other engine repairs as well.
The transmission in my Honda CRV stopped working when out of state and I had the vehicle towed back to WA. I called all the transmission shops and found their information to be most helpful. They had a tow truck sent and I paid an affordable fee. After removing the transmission it was determined it needed to be rebuilt but I did not have the funds. We discussed options and price and agreed on something I could work with. I received excellent help from Laurie to find a company to get the additional funds I had not managed to get myself. When I took the vehicle back for the 2 week check it still had some problems. They kept the vehicle/test drove it and duplicated the problem. They put in an additional part at no charge. When I returned for the next 2 week check there still were some concerns so they kept the vehicle again/duplicated that problem and put in another part with no charge. I received excellent service from everyone at the shop and would highly recommend Thurston County transmission to anyone.
Larry Collins is an absolute artist when it comes vehicles. His work is second to none and his knowledge is even greater. After dealing with Shady mechanic shops in Lakewood Ive come to love and trust that they tell me how it is and are honest. Thanks TCT! YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!
I had my transmission repaired by Thurston County Transmission. I was referred there by a friend of mine that ran a shop south of town before he retired. I repaired office equipment when I was working. Thurston County Transmission is warm and courteous and very professional. Since I had my transmission fixed, and by the way, they did a great job on the rebuild and even updated the parts, I have had other work done by them also. If you are looking for a competent shop to work on your vehicle, you really need to give these people a try. They are fair and will show you what they find straight up. I have been totally pleased with all of the work they did on my vehicle, and I am sure you will be happy as well. Great shop, good people.
Thurston County Transmission in Lacey, was able to diagnose my Honda Passport’s transmission problem and got me up and running again. A few weeks ago I started having problems where the car would shudder, especially at traffic lights, which felt very embarrassing I took the car in and after checking they let me know that transmission fluid was leaking from faulty hoses. They topped up my fluid and replaced the hoses. I do appreciate their honesty and integrity. I was expecting a considerable quote and bill instead I got exceptional customer service and professionalism. From start to finish they were flawless. I am most happy to recommend this company to all my family, friends and colleagues.
Cannot recommend these guys enough. They are extremely friendly and provide very reliable service and repairs. They truly have a customer focused mindset.
Honest / Experienced / Hardworking Team.The transmission in my 1993 Dodge 250W truck required a re-build. Thurston County Transmission was recommended by an Auto repair shop to do the work.From my first meeting with Jason to schedule the work to my last visit with Larry and Jason, when I picked up the truck, their teamwork and honest no-nonsense inspection and explanation of the work / cost associated with the rebuild was easy to understand even for a non-mechanic like me. They back their work with a Life Time Warranty. Truck now runs great. Ill recommend TCT to anyone who wants a job done thats built to last
Matt and the mechanics did amazing job on my transmission in my f 150. Very detailed.
I recommend Thurston County Transmission. They are nice, friendly and have great customer service.
The best experience Ive ever had with a transmission company. Its my second transmission in my truck and they fixed all the problems from the first person that did my transmission. Because I dont make any money without my truck they sped me a long so I can get back out working. Thanks to Larry Im a lot more comfortable with my transmission and my truck
Saved us thousands of dollars compared to the dealer. Turns out we needed much less work done than we had been told by the experts on the west side. I had already paid for a full work up on our transmission and had a print out from the dealer of what they said absolutely needed to be done. I wisely decided to pay Thurston County Transmission for a second opinion and am so glad I did. HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU CHECK THEM OUT!!!!
More knowledgeable and thorough than anyone Ive ever gone to! Very pleased! Takes a long time but well worth it. Small business that deserves to have a good clients!
Friendly, honest, fast and economical. The dealership wanted $7,500.00 to do work on our vehicle. We got a second opinion from Thurston County Transmission (TCT), thankfully we did, TCT did the work for under $3,000.00 and saved our transmission in the process. It is nice to come in contact with a business that cares about customer service. I highly recommend them. Thank you for helping us!
As a former mechanic and life long car enthusiast I am very picky and not usually happy when someone else works on my cars. I did some research before I brought my car in and I am glad I did. The 5 star rating is well earned. I felt like they treated my car like it was their own and did a great job. I am very satisfied TCT is on my short list of places I will take my car.
Best shop around! Rj was very understanding and great to work with. I will absolutely come here for all my auto shop needs. Can’t recommend these guys enough!
Jason was awesome! I had my transmission go bad on a road trip to Spokane (would not shift past 3rd gear) and had to get it serviced before I could drive it safely, and feel safe in my own car. It took about a week to fix everything wrong with it (sensors, rebuild solenoids, replacing fluids) and to wait for the parts and the kits to come in. Which was fine with me. And when it came time to pay, he explained everything he did, and also taught me a bit about what each component does. Also I paid $20 less than the estimate!Ill be going to him for my transmission servicing from now on 😊- Casey
We came to Washington from Oregon and our diesel engine dually broke down on a Thursday afternoon on our way home. We had a state track meet for the kids that we could not miss that weekend. They were so understanding and actually worked on our vehicle after closing just to make sure we would be on the road back home by Friday the NEXT DAY!! Outstanding service, fast and professional... I recommend Thurston County Transmission for any of your transmission needs.
I brought my 2005 GMC Denali in for transmission trouble. They got back with me within a two days telling me exactly whats wrong with it. There is no hassling with them. They get the job done in a time efficient manner. I received my truck back in a weeks time. They also give a life time warranty on the transmission which is definitely a plus in these days and time. I really appreciate the hard work.
I was having issues with my car and had so many people telling me it was this, it was that. Everyone thought they knew what was making a horrible noise in my car. I took it to Thurston County Transmission and within an hour they figured out exactly what was going on with my car. I had them do the work and the price was just under what the estimate for the work was. My car is excellent shape after that and has restored power and better gas mileage. I would recommend Thurston County Transmission 150%. They absolutely know what theyre doing and are good at it!
This place was recorded by Mikes Automotive I needed my alternator replaced on my 06 Ford escape and it requires the front differential to be removed so a transmission shop was the place to go . They did a great job and I got a military discount and a one year 12000 mile warranty. I can highly recommend this place.
My transmission was slipping on my 2016 Honda Odyssey I really thought I was gonna new a new transmission. 470$ later it was a faulty 3 gear switch. Thanks so much for being honest any where else I’m sure I would of paid for a brand new transmission. : )
I had my trucks transmission rebuilt here and so far everything has been great. Jason had good communication about everything they did and showed me what was wrong. It was in and out of the shop quickly and they worked with me when I brought them parts to add(trans cooler and temp sensor bung). I did not feel cheated in the end and the trans shifts nice and firm now. Thanks!
I have used Thurston County Transmission for all of my automotive needs since 2013 when another local repair shop recommended them to me. I was not disappointed. Everything from oil changes, brakes and tune-ups to complete engine, transmission and rear differential rebuilds. They have always been professional, fair-priced and most of all . . . HONEST. I had the complete drivetrain rebuilt in my classic 1970 Oldsmobile Cutlass Convertible. Larry worked with me to choose all the right performance parts and even did research on his own time to help me build the car of my dreams. I will continue to take my vehicles to Larry and his team at Thurston County Transmission because I know the job will get done right. Keep up the great work, Larry!
This shop is great. Through job, technically sound, and great prices. They review the truck and stood by the warranty and were so nice in their customer service.I would definitely recommend them. Thank you so much.
I was referred to Thurston county transmission by a friend; I dropped my truck off, after about an hour I was informed what was wrong with my trucks transmission. I called in to see how the repairs were going, they were very informative on how far along they had gotten and very thorough in telling me what the next step was. They called me throughout the repair and I felt assured that everything was going to plan. My truck was done on time. Thank you Thurston county transmission. I will recommend you to my friends.
These guys are over the top great. My 2005 Volvo XC 90 transmission quit. Took to a shop on the west side of Olympia was quoted $12,000 dollars before tax .They recommended consider cutting my lose What!After talking with Matt at TCT had my car towed to their shop. About a Week and a half later my car is fixed with tax for $4500.00And it runs better than it ever has.Thank You Matt and all the great folks at TCT. You saved me $8000.00You guys are so honest, and trust worthy.I dont normally right reviews but this one was well deserving.All these other great reviews really speak to TCT serviceIf you have a transmission issue look no further. We are lucky here in Olympia to have the best.Thank you again TCT.Duke
I have received one of the best experiences I have had in a long time. TCT performed the work on my Dodge,on time and for what was stated in regards to cost. I found them very patent with my needs and understanding. I was kept informed in all aspects, I would highly recommend there services for your auto care needs. Great job guys
Fast and convenient! Their prices were better than most and they have way more knowledgeable technicians!
I know Larry personally and can attest this guy is a serious transmission engineer!Most rebuilt transmissions have parts from multiple other broken transmissions - and you really have no idea how many miles are on them or how long they will last. Thurston County Transmission makes sure they know the history on every component they use, and rather than rebuilding to factory specs Larry and his team build the transmission better than ever before, with tried and true solutions that are better than the original. Thats just a couple examples of the pure quality you get from Thurston County Transmission.
Great awesome work trans has been holding strong and there always friendly and willing to help will always take my trucks there
This has been my best experience of getting my car worked on. Jason is so helpful and really takes the time to make sure everything is fixed properly and that you know what is going on through the whole process. They do fast great quality work. I would recommend them to anyone.
Its been a few years since Ive used them. My wife had a Dodge 1500 4x4 with 100k+miles. The transmission was shifting just a tad hard. Wanting to preempt any damage we went in to have it looked at. They took it on a test drive then came back. Get this, they said it doesnt need any work. The miles on it may actually cause a transmission flush cause it to get worse, so dont worry. NO CHARGE! In this day and age its so common for shops to do work thats not really needed just to get $. Not this place. They were honest.
Very knowledgeable and fair with great customer service
This company is awesome. They did some major transmission work on my car and now its running beautifully. The mechanics were very upfront and honest about cost and about what was wrong with my vehicles transmission. (Of course, the giant hole in it was a dead give away that somethings was wrong...) :-)They were so thorough, they even did checks of other systems since they had the opportunity, and discovered my clutch was about to go out, then they fixed that as well, quickly and cost efficiently. We were very happy with Jason and his team, and very much appreciated that these guys are good people, incredibly knowledgable and experienced in the auto repair field. I would definitely recommend this business to friends and plan to return for future repair needs. Thank you for all you did for us, Thurston Co Transmission!
After several years of service from this company, the issues in our vehicles still existed. We had been thinking it was time to find another shop that was honest and reliable to actually resolve our issues. Jason was a big part of the fault of the company. His attitude and the way he treated me was disrespectful and beyond rude. Recently I referred my mother since her vehicle broke down near the shop only to have her treated horribly as well. Once again after a day of having the vehicle back the same issues happened Jason was again so awful and off putting. The owner was requested to speak to and he was even worse and hung up on my mother. I just cant fathom why people would want to run a company this way and drive away paying customers. We will never trust them with our vehicles ever again and have moved on to a shop that treats us with the upmost respect and actually cares about their customers. Worst experience ever!!! If there was a zero star rating, that would be correct. So unfortunate and waste of money and time!!
The customer service has far exceeded any shop in the county. There were no surprises and the transmission was done in just a few days. You have gained a customer for life.
