    Not only did they fix the problem but Frank had the test done and passed when I walked through the door.

    Christian Brothers automotive charges a $99 diagnostic fee to figure out what's wrong with your…read morecar, however, they also identify everything else that's wrong with the car, in order to try to get you to fix it at their service station. Although, I think the people are nice, they have a slight issue, knowing that if you go a mile west of them, in Central Aurora you're going to receive prices 1/3 the cost of this location. I think they would be better off, offering more reasonable prices, relative to the competition.

    Now, I took my car in to see what was wrong with my engine as it sounded like it was misfiring…read moreperhaps and the hood was rumbling every now and then. I just had taken the car in not too long ago for something else mind you. They did a level 1 diagnostic to see what was wrong and see what the check engine light was for. They got back to me pretty quickly and gave me the usual list of things that need to be done, the estimate was almost 800 dollars for the diagnostic and to replace spark plugs and other repairs. Which I thought was ridiculous in the first place as I decided to do it myself and get all the parts for 1/5 of that price. Mind you the job does not take that long. Problem 1. I pick up the car and one of the mechanics actually left his wrench on the upper part of my hood. I called to ask about the diagnostic so I know what exactly I'm working with, and the person on the other line goes "oh I've been meaning to call you, on of our mechanics left a wrench in your hood". You've been meaning to ? Like you knew about it and didn't say anything just yet ? Bit odd but whatever, workers shouldn't leave there stuff in customers cars anyways but it was a human mistake I get but jeez. Problem 2. I go to check my hood, found the wrench and I just happen to see definitely something odd with my wires connected to the engine. One of them looked to be CHEWED out by an animal! Obviously, definitely, if not the main issue with my car at the moment !! Of course I cannot drive on it in this condition. Upon closer look I see little droppings from a mouse or rat or some other animal and the left over rubber pieces all over the place near the wire. Go figure. Now, they did not send me any inspection report after looking into my car and they never mentioned not one piece of detail about this issue to me until I looked for myself. Granted I probably should've known before, but the LEAST they could've done was look and mention it to me instead of quoting a price and calling it a day. Left a sour taste in my mouth. I also found what looked to be a candy wrapper near the inside area where the little critter left his mess. Looked to be from a candy bar or what have you now I'm not sure if this was from the workers or something else but I sure as hell don't sit on the hood of my car and eat candy or chocolate. Overall, it was just not a great experience this time around, I'm definitely going to be looking for a new shop, I think they definitely need to be more reasonable with their prices and labor. I hope they can be more honest and transparent about issues in the future with other people, as I felt like I was left in the dark until I looked for myself. Obviously I'm not blaming them for whatever critter came and left a mess but the whole principle of just handing me an estimate without pictures of things or even an inspection report and then leaving tools in my car and giving me a ridiculous estimate for a job that can be done myself is absurd.

They advised me that to get into the trans and change that, they should replace the whole transmission for a couple hundred more, otherwise they couldn't guarantee the work. And they charged $150 for this "diagnosis". They wanted thousands of dollars for a new transmission, and I was stuck because I couldn't take the emissions test to renew my plates with a check engine light on. Brought it to Tony's Transmissions, and he replaced the sensor in a few days for a few hundred dollars. I can't remember the exact amount because I paid cash and it was about a year ago, but I just saw his business pop up when I was doing a search and remembered that I should have left him a review back then. He really did great work. Check engine light was off, car passed emissions, and we drove it for another year before selling it a friend for his teenage son. Car is still running strong.

Tony said they were backed up and I offered to drop it off early just in case Tony and team got some extra time, as the family had an urgent college move-in date to make :-) Tony and team got the sensor part in and quickly turned it around, including some Q/A to make sure it was stable. Pricing with parts and labor was very reasonable.
