Service and work quality is great. It's hard to find a real mechanic these days. He rebuilt the transmission in our truck and when finished instead of just saying he's done, he test drove it and didn't like the way it shifted so changed more parts and it shifts better than when it was brand new. It is a 2019 Chevy 3500 with the Allison. read more

My transmission went out while in was in New Jersey visiting my daughter. They got me back on the road within 3 days. Thank you to the owner and everyone that works there. read more

These guys may seem rough on the exterior, but you don't get the run around or any unnecessary BS from them. They shoot straight and get the job done fast. Wish I came to them before going to the big name shops. If you have any transmission needs come to this place, so happy they still have people like this around!!! read more

Denville Transmission - Auto Repair Near Me - Denville, New Jersey

I brought my car in because I felt my car was lurching. First, they got to the car relatively quickly. I dropped my car in the morning, and they had someone take a look at it about an hour later and call me. More importantly, they refused to take any money for diagnosing my car. The person who I talked to was Rob. He was fair and forthright. read more

I got an accurate quote, fair price, fast service, the staff was polite, and the job was well done.

Excellent company!!! They did diagnostic and found nothing wrong with my transmission at NO charge. Then, they recommended me to a quality local business that took care of everything in 1 day! You can't ask for more! read more

Took my truck in for a transmission service. Fluid and filter. No big deal. Everything was great and the job seemed to have been done right. A few weeks later I go to replace my brakes and I'm looking at the underside. The transmission cooler lines are leaking like crazy. I look further and they are rusted through about to break. How the hell does a transmission shop not notice this or say anything!!! Like did anyone inspect the vehicle or make note, because if I was told then that they needed to be replaced I would have. Replaced the lines and now it's fine, however I wasted money having them change the fluid since a lot of it leaked out. I gave one star because of the lack of caring to inspect, granted the work they did was fine. It's the fact that the bigger problem was never disclosed to me. read more

When I was preparing for a trip and got an oil change at a nearby Jiffy Lube, they told me I had a transmission leak they couldn't address. When I asked where they recommended, they said all their technician got to Denville Transmission because they are not only excellent but TOTALY HONEST. They fixed my leak and refilled my tranny. FOR FREE!!! The owner Bob told me I would be ok for 2500 miles and come back after trip. Well I waited until I drove over 5000 miles and car drove like tranny was shot. Managed to limp in. They put it on their computer and told me no tranny codes came up. They thought it was a clogged catalytic converter. It was! This confirmed it to me and why I am writing this review. You can't do any better than Danville Transmission. Yes. They are TOTALLY HONEST AND SUPER COMPETENT. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU SHOULD CONSIDER THEM FOR YOUR TRANSMISSION WORK. read more

Exceptional service! I brought my car to Denville Transmission for a second opinion. The first garage I brought it to misdiagnosed my Jeep as to needing a new trans, I brought it to Denville Transmission, having had another good experience a few years earlier with another car. They promptly realized there was not a problem with the trans and actually drove my car to another service station for me-NO CHARGE for this or the evaluation. The garage they recommended was also excellent The repairs had to do with the fuel pump and gas tank. There actually ARE good and honest people in this world, even when it comes to business! Denville Transmission is the ONLY place to go for transmission work. Rob is a good man! read more

One morning on my way to work, I tried to back out of my driveway and realized I couldn't switch gears on my stick car. I panicked. My husband had already left for work, and we were new to the area - I didn't know a mechanic. My dad suggested I have the car towed to Bergen County, where there was a mechanic I knew. I'm glad I didn't listen to him. I drove the car in first gear down to Denville Transmission. From the second I pulled in they were wonderful to me - listening to the problem, calming me down, giving me a reasonable price, and even driving me to work (instead of calling a cab for me). They kept me abreast of what was going on during the repair, and got it done faster than they estimated. I'd definitely go back, but hope I don't have to. read more

Our band was passing through the area, and we were very short on time trying to get to a show that evening. Rob and his crew at Denville managed to squeeze us in, get the job done, and were friendly and knowledgeable. They diagnosed and fixed our trans problem quickly and professionally, and gave us a great deal to say the least. I've traveled constantly for years and had to use a lot of random mechanics, so when I say "these guys are as good as anyone out there," it's based on a lot of experience. Solid work at a good price is hard to find. If I lived in the area I'd use these guys any time and recommend all my friends. read more

Best mechanics, great work, honest, affordable, and you never have to worry about being scammed. All around best place to get a transmission done. New or rebuilt. Have had both done on multiple vehicles over the years. read more

Summary: The owner, Rob, and the team at Denville Transmission (DT) are honest, knowledgeable, and professional. I never felt like they were trying to push unnecessary services and they completed the work earlier than they originally estimated. Details: I noticed that oil was leaking from the front differential of my SUV so I contacted DT on a Tue to see when I could come in for service. They said I could drop it off any time that I was available and I didn't need an appointment. I came by Tue evening to drop off the vehicle and early Wed afternoon I got a call from Rob with the initial diagnosis. He indicated that a seal on the differential was in need of replacement. He estimated the cost to be about $600 and it would be ready on Thu. I was pleased with the estimate and approved the work. First thing Thu morning Rob called me and said they found a problem with the differential. While replacing the seal, they performed a complete inspection of the differential unit and found a crack in the case. He informed me that it was going to be an expensive job, but he felt it was worth it for my situation because the vehicle was in very good shape and has low mileage. I told him I did plan on keeping the SUV for many years and that I wanted to proceed. Rob offered two repair options. The first option was $3000 and he would rebuild/repair the existing unit (24 labor hours). The second option was $3500 which would involve the complete replacement of the transmission and differential assembly (18 labor hours). He recommended the replacement option because it would include a 2 year/24k mile warranty on the transmission/differential assembly. While $3500 was much more than I was planning to spend for this repair, I selected the second option to replace the complete assembly. Rob estimated that it would be ready by the following Tuesday morning and he would call if there were any updates. Friday afternoon Rob called to let me know the work was complete ahead of schedule and I could come by to pick up my SUV. The cost was $3500 as quoted plus tax which brought the total cost to about $3800. While this cost is high compared to the initial estimate for the seal replacement, based on my research this is a fair price overall for the complete replacement of the transmission and differential unit. Assuming a standard rate of $80/hour, 18 hours of labor is roughly $1400 and the price I've seen for a replacement transmission and transfer case is approximately $2500. If I went to a dealer for the work, I'd probably add 20% or more to those costs. I feel comfortable that the cost I paid was reasonable and less than what I would have paid at other garages. The repair was completed ahead of schedule and working with Rob was a pleasure. I would recommend DT for future transmission repair needs. read more

Many difficulties with several transmission jobs, and repeated problems and expense. Would not recommend.
