The dealership told me they'd have to replace the transmission, which was going to cost me upwards of $3,400. This is never something you want to hear out of nowhere. Fortunately, someone at Art's Automotive pointed me in the direction of Wilf's. Wilf's had a look at my car, confirmed the same problem the dealership found, and said they could just replace the stepper motor for about $1,200. I was more than willing to give that a try, especially given the great reviews here. They had to source the stepper motor, and it sounds like it wasn't easy to track it down, but they kept me in the loop with what was going on and when they'd expect it to arrive. My car was running well enough to keep going in the meantime; it was more of a question of inevitable failure at some point. When the day came for the operation, they let me have a courtesy car. Everything went smoothly, right on schedule, and my Versa has been humming along as well as before. Everyone I spoke with at Wilf's was pleasant, intelligent, courteous, and even fun to deal with. I got the sense they were honest and doing their best at all times. I hope not to need them again, but if any other transmission issues come up in the future, I know where I'm headed.

I wasn't fully convinced why it's directly caused by my clutch so I looked for a second opinion at Coast Auto Transmission.

Then he said you should be good to go, one screw was loose on the shift and I tightend it up. Your clutch wasn't perfect but ok to drive. And he did not charge me a penny. I'll definitely recommend this shop and Tom is the one that you can trust.

When my tow truck pulled up at 6:05 (they close at 6:00) they stayed behind to talk to me about what happened and were genuinely interested about the problem and getting to know the situation. The next day they provided a free diagnostic to be sure what was wrong and were very informative when they called to tell me the problem. When they diagnosed the problem (an almost destroyed timing belt) they ordered and replaced it the same day so that I was able to pick it up in less than 24 hours after I dropped it off. My car works perfectly now and I can be assured that the rest of my car is fine due to their thorough job. Pricing was as fair as it gets and more than reasonable for the job. Overall this was the best experience I have ever had with a mechanics shop and they took great care of my car. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Don't take my word for it, I have receipts - please see all 9 photos below; there is mold build up, a broken window and the brand new battery appears to have been replaced, that's just to name a few.

They reset the flashing vsc off, traction and engine light then recommended that I take it more seriously if it happens again.

John and Bert Jr. are the two sons of Bert Sr. AKA Berts Automotive. You may remember them from…read moretheir racing days as all three did competitive professional racing back in the day. These two sons eventually branched off and opened up Pacific Driveline. Pacific driveline is a transmission shop that you can easily rely upon. They are honest, fair and they stand behind their work with integrity. When we first were looking to have our transmission rebuilt we were recommended by our mechanic to goto these guys as they supported various warranty groups and our coast-to-coast warranty would be validated with them. We did the rebuild and unfortunately it failed while we did a trip up to Kamloops (but not so bad). They stood behind their work and not only did they honor their own warranty; they also had the vehicle towed from Kamloops to their shop and helped us make alternative vehicle arrangements. It turned out that the part that was involved in the update (yes they do the updates during rebuilds) was defective. About a half year later we noticed that the transmission was starting to "gear hunt"; so I brought it over to John to inspect. We found also that the rear-differential was squealing during the test-drive. John replaced all of the solenoids and also preformed a rear-differential flush at NO COST. We could not be happier with the service that these two perform. They remained professional throughout our entire ordeal, were completely transparent with honesty and left us with a warm feeling of knowing that we have found a drivetrain shop that we could rely upon. I highly recommend Pacific Driveline~!
