I took my 1963 Nova here it has all of the stuff out of a 2002 corvette LS1 and transmission, well my trans went out. I went somewhere else and it did not run well. I was recommended to take my car to Chino Hills Transmission and Greg, his dad and Team took care of all of my issues. At a very reasonable price. I am in love with my car again!!!! read more

Their great!!!! I did not have issues with service nor scheduling for service. They explained things to me so I understood. Always helpful & friendly. Quality work for sure. I will definitely return to them as needed. Excellent!! read more

My 2011 Jeep Wrangler's engine light was on. I took it to Chino Hills Transmission. Greg diagnosed the problem, gave me a reasonable quote & repaired it within a week. The garage was easy to find, but parking is limited. Greg & his team were very knowledgeable & helped get my Jeep up & running! No engine light!! Yay!! read more

Having your transmission go out on you makes for a really shitty day but my dad always told me if I need anything with a transmission that this place is the only option. And, now I know why. Yeah Greg took great care of me on keeping the price down but that wasn't the reason I left happy. It was a trust thing. He was straight forward, honest, and really cared. Only downside is they seem too good at their job and the secret is out because they are busy, so have a little patience and you'll be back on the road not wondering if you got taken advantage of. read more

did a nice job on my Lexus transmission. they did a lot of extra stuff as well. thank you Greg read more

Stay the hell away from this place!!! Took my truck in for torque converter and have a bigger trans cooler put in . Truck was there for three weeks what a slop job he put the trans back in my truck filthy and grease. didn't even put the trans cooler on it. What a screw job 3,000 dollars later My friend even recommended this place. ‍ read more

The Owner Gregg worked very hard to correct the issue and I am extremely satisfied in the outcome. Gregg was on top of the problem once he became aware of it and I couldn't be happier with his professionalism and great customer service. 10 STARS TO YOU GREGG AND CHINO HILLS TRANSMISSION!!!! read more

Don't even know where to begin. I did not choose this shop. My truck was at a diesel shop for a simple repair. They screwed it up and they sent it to chino hills transmission to get it "fixed" only to make things worse. My truck doesn't even shift to park and problem that I paid $4,000 for still exist. Between this shop and mad tech diesel in Rancho, my truck was gone for over two months. Come to find out, they broke the locking clip for my throttle valve actuator and didn't even mention it. Shady shop. Wouldn't even go back even if they paid me to go. read more

Rick and Greg are the best when comes transmission. Fair and reasonable priced. Great family and would definitely recommended to all

Don't be in a hurry but do trust them to do 5 star work and at reasonable prices. Will be coming back for sure.

Very impressed by the service and honesty of Greg. I took my car in for transmission service as the dealer had recommended. I had not experienced any trouble but my car had over 95000 miles. After they preformed a test run they checked the quality of the fluid and found that it was great. When I asked what I owed I was told there would be no charge as no service was done. They certainly could have charged me for the time. I highly recommend them. read more

This is a our go to place for tranny work (the vehicular kind of course) love these guy

This review is a bit overdue. Last year I brought my classic 1970 Buick Skylark Convertible in for some transmission diagnostics. My transmission was running OK, but there was little response in the performance. The transmission was rebuilt 20 years ago. I asked the guys at Chino Hills Transmission on what would be the best performance upgrade. They recommmended a fresh performance rebuild and an upgraded torque converter. The price was fair. I also asked about upgrading to a POSI (limited slip) differential. CHT found a good gear match for the rebuilt transmission and torque converter. The result was much higher performance AND better gas mileage. the best of both worlds. The staff was extremely friendly, always communicated the status of the Buick, and recommended other services at my choice (universal joints, balanced drive shift). If you have a classic or a newer model, the folks at Chino Hills Transmission should be your first choice for transmission repair and upgrades. A year later, the transmission and the other upgrades are still beating my expectations. Great job! Charlie Poirier read more

I wanted to take the time to write a review this shop was very honest and fair repairing my old trans on my 1948 caddy thanks again Greg read more

Have not had any issues whatsoever with either and I've been driving it like I stole it. Wasn't cheap but not too expensive, you get what you pay for.....needless to say, I am a satisfied customer and would definitely recommend read more

These clowns worked on my 1957 Buick i was charged 2100.00 to repair leaks in my transmission. After 8 weeks i was told it was finished, when i took it home the leak was the same .Greg told me to bring it back, he never did fix it .They are very corrupt im out 2100.00 don't trust these people to work on your vehicles. No star for this business.l read more

I took my suburban here a few years ago for a new transmission. As I am rebuilding the engine and taking off the exhaust bolts that bolt onto the heads I noticed there are 3 snapped off bolts in the head of my engine which caused check engine light. To snap 3 bolts and not do anything about is beyond lazy and not rite read more

Greg at Chino Hills Transmission has worked on my vehicles for 15 plus years. He has always done very good work. Recently I brought him my 1966 El Camino for a rebuild of my 700r-4 transmission. I was not happy with the length of time it took for the repair, nor the condition of the exterior paint from sitting outside in 90 plus degrees for several weeks. I drove the car for 5 weeks and the transmission broke, a complete break down of the gears. I towed it back to Greg's shop. A major component in the trans (rear ring gear and housing) had broken apart. Greg replaced all the expensive broken pieces and assembled the trans and got my car up and running in a couple of days. He did not charge me a dime. Even thou we could have disputed whether the break down was his responsibility under his warranty, we didn't. If you are looking for excellent transmission repair and an owner with integrity this is the place to go. If you are in need of a designated turn around time and where your vehicle is going to be stored while at the shop, then I recommend you discuss that with Greg before you start. My transmission works better than when I bought it new. read more

What a great place. We had such a bad experience with another transmission place that took 8 weeks and still didn't fix our car. This place was awesome! Two people had recommended them to us and I wish we would have gone to them sooner. They had my car fixed in one week. Highly recommend them!! read more

Great shop love the work Greg save form haven't to spend 5000 for a new Transmission and fix mine

Make sure if you use there service" I went in to have transmissions serviced and came out with other problems with the vehicle" Every thing else was working before I took it in. So just make sure you have them come to your car and show them how everything else is work at the time. Don't give my car back to me saying it didn't happen here. Buyer beware" IJS. Never again" read more

Chino Hills Transmission a family owned, and family friendly. The facility is clean, lots of cars, hot rods, trucks. I had a moderate shift kit installed in my 95 suburban, and man it shifts great. Very satisfied. I referred my neighbor and a couple friends, they to are also satisfied customers.. thanks Greg for your help. read more

I was so happy when a friend recommended me these profesionals. You won't find a better shop or better people in the repair industry, I guarantee. They did a diff and gear swap in my 16 Camaro. Work was perfect, price was right on, and their knowledge is unbeatable. Thanks so much for talking the talk and walking the walk! read more

$5,000 Lesson Learned. Upon a recommendation I took my 2018 F150 10-speed transmission in to be repaired. This was a horrible experience - they took up to 3 weeks to get it out the door, and I was told that it still made a sound but "just drive it". After 2 days and less than 50 Miles I had it towed back in. After another 2 weeks and another several thousand dollars, I picked it up again - still didn't sound right. I took it to another shop who properly diagnosed the problem, noticed mistakes that this shop made and charged me another $5,000 to rebuild the transmission properly. I could have easily bought a brand new transmission from the dealer and had the car up and running in less than 2 weeks and saved $3,000. These guys just don't know or understand modern transmissions, period. The ONLY way the work gets done is if you drop in on them and check it physically and show a sense of urgency. Stay away. read more

My Wife, my Sons and I have been going to Chino Hills Transmission for over 10 years; We lived in Ontario and now live in Huntington Beach and continue to drive there for my car repairs. Greg and his crew are the only ones we trust with our cars!!! Everyone that we have recommended has been as happy with their work as we do!!! They saved us over $3000.00 once on my Honda Civic; it overheated which caused a crack in my engine. One of Greg's guys worked for Honda at one time and told Greg that this was a recall problem that Honda was not publicizing; he had my car trucked to the nearest Honda Dealer and Honda replaced the cracked block at no charge! And they always stand behind all there work!!! read more

My 2007 Corolla runs so much better! Greg is an honest guy with honest prices. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Two thumbs up!

This place takes their time to explain what's going on with your car and are very reliable. Got my car back in great condition and running smoothly. Love this place and have already referred my friends. They also had a great experience. The owners were super friendly and the prices are reasonable! I feel confident taking my car at this great establishment! read more

Great friendly customer service here and affordable pricing. Quick work they do too. Would recommend for any trans needs

Let me first off start off by saying this is not my first time in a transmission shop unfortunately but by far this place is number one around. If I can just give anyone advice please do NOT have your trans, transfer case, what have u serviced anywhere BUT a transmission shop and this being the place to take it! I would recommend these guys to anyone I know such as family or friends. Greg will take care of you no matter what! Thanks again! (Very happy customer) read more

*** DISHONEST MECHANIC**** **HORRIBLE COMMUNICATION, INEFFICIENT, AND LONG WAIT TIMES** - I took my car to this place based on the ratings and location near my house. My car wouldn't drive over 20 mph so I had it towed to the location to have my trans looked at. I was going to look for a transmission on my own and against my better judgment listened to my fiancé who thought it would be a good idea to take it to them. - For 2 weeks I was told that my car was being "diagnosed" and that the issue could not be found by their mechanics. - After 2 weeks I was told I needed a new transmission (not really a problem for me, my car has over 230k+ miles so it was bound to happen soon) and that it would be ready to pick up in a couple days. I did not get my car back for another 2 more weeks! - The day I came to pick up my car (when I was told it would be ready) it was not ready and I was told I had to wait another 30 minutes before they were done. They ended up keeping my car another day and when I drove it home the next day, everything was fine for about 10 minutes, and then my car broke down again and started making this horrible rattling and shaking sound. - I had my car towed back to the transmission place where they said they would take a look. - Now this is the 3rd time coming to check my car and when I turn it on the rattling sound is worse and louder. - **Even another customer who was getting their car worked on recognized the sound coming from my car and said he had the same issue after they worked on his car. ** - They also charged me for another battery, which they claimed was low, but was probably because they had my car for a whole month and was draining the battery each time it was being worked on. The main guy Greg even tried to bs me and say that the battery needs to "relearn" the car since it has new oils and a new battery installed and that it takes a few miles to calibrate the idle. - My father in law came with me and we drove my car to an auto shop close by where they told us the engine was shot and we needed a new one. - Now I cant prove this obviously, but my theory is that the revved my engine too hard trying to get my car to accelerate and ended up blowing out the engine. The car was NOT making any rattling sounds when it was in my possession, the car had been in their possession for a month, and when I got it back, this rattling/ticking sound is happening and they tried to tell me that sound was always there. - Instead of being honest and saying "hey while we were working on the trans your engine took a shit" they bs'd me saying that when I take my car to Jiffy Lube for oil changes that the filter is what gets clogged and causes engine problems. Yea for high performance cars! My car is a 2005 Pontiac Vibe come on now! - What's done is done, I paid $1900 for a new transmission and will have to pay another 2 grand to fix an engine. - SAVE YOURSELF SOME MONEY AND TIME AND EITHER LOOK FOR A TRANSMISSION ON YOUR OWN OR AVOID THIS PLACE ALTOGEHER. read more

The technicians are very knowledgeable and did a great job at trouble shooting all of the other problems with my truck that affected the transmission performance. I use my truck every day and it has a lot of milage. It's so nice to have my truck back running like new again. Thanks Gregg read more

What an awful place. Brought my car in for some work and they did everything but fix my problem. They refused to acknowledge their wrongs and I had to have someone else come in and clean up their mess. BUYER BEWARE. read more

Greg is fair and honest. He and his crew replaced my Ford C-Max transmission. Two thumbs up!

Had RV for a week advised me that it was the computer 99% chance . the problem and he replaced some wires. Charge me $250. Replace computer like advised same problem out $250 for $10 worth of wires not happy. Had another shop diagnose it replace ground wires RV running right now thank you read more

This place is one of the few remaining car places I like because they use the old school way of pricing things. These days when you bring your car just about anywhere (else) and tell them you have noisy brakes they check you in for a "break check". Which costs lets say, $60. Then they find that you need new rotors, have some leak on the rear brakes (which are designed to leak like that as they wear down), etc... Then it all adds up to $600. Not here! At Chino Hills Transmission he will tell you he will look at it. Then call you back and let you know he needs to turn the rotors, not replace them. Tell you that you need new shoes in the back, but not the entire brake set up. All in all it is going to be $180. Oh... And while they were down there they noticed your neutral safety switch was loose and they tightened that down. So now you don't have to shift from park to drive, back to park to get the darn thing started. And you didn't even mention this as a problem to them! And they didn't charge you anything for it. Yeah... These places are a dying breed so get yourself into Chino Hills Transmission before they decided to change things up! read more

We have an automotive repair shop in the city of Montclair. We brought Rick a customers transmission that someone else had assembled incorrectly and it broke after 1000 miles. Rick took it apart and found that a thrust washer was assembled in the wrong place. It destroyed the transmission. They sourced a new transmission for us and delivered the newly rebuild transmission for the exact price quoted. Thanks for the great work! read more

I'm a first time customer.. the clutch failed on my daughter's 2016 Ford Focus. My regular mechanic honestly didn't want to touch it.. Ford of Upland wanted to charge an arm and two legs to fix it and as I called around, not many shops were versed on how to handle this particular model because it was a new type of clutch/ transmission unit ford tried ( it failed miserably). Kar King Auto recommended I call Greg at Chino Hills Transmission because he is a "good guy" with fair prices and oh boy was he right! Greg said "sure just drop it off" he quoted me a price immediately, welllllllll under the competitors.. he had it fixed like brand new within days and stayed true to his quote. The shop is clean, professional and welcoming. There were plenty of high end cars being worked on but I was treated with just as much curtiousness as the guy who was there picking up his luxury car, even with my lil ol ford focus. Greg shared that his dad had opened the place 40 years ago to the day.. they obviously take pride in what they do.. I will recommend Chino Hills Transmission to my friends and family. read more

Took my 2012 Ram 1500 here after AAMCO on Riverside was unable to properly diagnose and fix my issue. It did take Chino Hills Transmission a few weeks to finally nail down what was causing the error codes. But to their credit, they did so as a means to keep the cost of the repairs down. They tried to keep it simple until they had to make it complex. They also took the time to call my extended warranty company and were able to get the repair covered. Greg is very knowledgeable and personable. He's not out to take your money. He's just there to fix your car and fix it right. read more

I have had these guys work on several of my cars and would trust them with anything (which is hard for me to do in today's automotive industry). They specialize in transmissions, but apart from that i have had them work on other things as well like differential service, or changing a clutch out. From a stock Acura, to a road race BMW and a pair of bracket raced drag Nova's, they have worked on it all. They are always very upfront and honest with fair pricing for quality work. They do get busy but i have never had a problem getting work in and out. These guys have a loyal following at the track and around town here in Chino for a reason. read more
