He isn't just any mechanic, I call him the Professor. He and his crew know more about the mechanics of a car than any other shop I've been too in Central Florida, and I've gone to a great many trying to find a good one. Thankfully, my search is over.

Honest, capable, reliable, and successful repair!! What more could you want from a transmission…read moreshop??!! My 2008 Toyota Yaris transmission would randomly shift down or out of gear altogether, at between 35mph and highway speeds. Sometimes it would do this and sometimes it would behave properly. It was intermittent. So I didn't know if my tranny was toast and needed a $5000 replacement or could be fixed for reasonable cost. Oh yes, the Electric Power Steering in my Yaris would go in and out as well, separate issue. I brought it to Derek at Transmission Depot, and told him it was not a daily driver, so he could take as long as needed to diagnose and fix the found issues. Derek had team members drive it for errands to get it to misbehave, to assist in the diagnosis. Eventually they decided to replace the speed sensor and crankshaft position sensor. While they were doing that work, they found a couple ground wires to the transmission that needed cleaning up. They drove and tested it some more after those repairs. After another week or so, they decided it was ready for me to pick up. It was fixed!! Worked great and continues to work perfectly! For under $1000, Derek and the Transmission Depot team not only fixed my transmission random shift/slippage issue, but the intermittent electric power steering issue went away as well! Now both the transmission and the steering work perfectly and it's a reliable car again! Thank you Derek and the Transmission Depot crew!

They're pretty good for used parts and repairs. We've been using them for what seems like forever;…read morethe Clayton boys aren't exactly boys anymore. lol Dad even shopped here often enough to become familiar with them. They're definitely one of my go-to spots when I'm searching for parts. Whenever they don't have what I'm looking for, they've always been pretty good with pointers; which is on a level of customer service you don't see with other salvage yards. I usually just stop in to say hi when I'm looking for whatever or see if they've got what I need by searching them online. I've bought so many parts from them over the years I can't remember but this last time in was a convertible top for an 03 Mustang GT. Once pulled a set of leather seats for a 74 Mark IV; that was a fun project! They've done some good work for me too. Solved a tricky A/C bug I was having with old Mercedes 190E years ago. Swapped out some Town Car airbags for coil springs. Good stuff. Always honest and fair which is something you don't always see in this business.

Had to call back a few hours later to get a few ducks in a row on my end. When I called back Natalie was gone and some rude guy with a huge chip on his shoulder, would not let me speak or even ask a question. And when I kept waiting for him to finish speaking to tell him I had a couple questions that would help me to answer his, he literally spoke over me LOUDER TO SAY " Am I coming at 4 o'clock are you gonna answer the question or not?" I'm in customer service and have been 15 years. I don't even know how they have this person representing or answering anything. They should stick with professionals like Natalie answering calls and keep this very upset with life human being off the phones. So sorry to say that I can't even say how the actual business went. Cause they couldn't manage a simple phone conversation. Good luck if your in that area though. Would love to think however based off a recommendation that not all interactions there are like this, also based off the interaction I had earlier with Natalie. But no one should be spoken to like that from a business. And would love to provide a name of this perturbed individual but of course, couldn't get a word out to ask a name. And he didn't say his when answering like the other people did. But whoever's answering phones at 3pm Thursdays be switched lol

As a long time gear head I felt hopeful but knew there was a deeper problem like the lock up clutch in the torque converter . I called around NSB and spoke with Gary. He has been at this magic for many years and his discussion made sense to fix it right AND he started on the repair right away. Ford engineers did not make it easy for maintenance but 24 hours later my van was driving and shifting smooth as silk . Don't let the parts strung all over his shop detour you. His shop has set the bar for my repair. Thank you Gary!
