Had to buy a used tranny from pick a part. When removed from the vehicle the mechanic I hired at…read morethe junkyard parking lot pulled the transmission for $150 (cheap). Cali, did a decent job but did not know the trans had a drain plug installed. Smashed my overdrive. John and his crew put me on the road and i'm still running strong today 5 years later. Professional& prompt, Worth the extra dollar for quality work. When it comes to transmissions don't 2nd guess, call sparkeys!! Thanks John.,

My friend Matt was storing his vintage F150 pick-up truck at my house for a while until he was…read moreready to start the restoration process. That time came and the first order of business was the transmission. Matt wanted Sparky's in Santee for the job. Matt lives in north county and I live in Santee, so he called Sparky's let them know what was up. I was to call to arrange to drop it off. Matt said the gentleman he spoke with, John, I believe, was super cool I called and spoke with John and he was indeed super cool. I made arrangements to drop off the truck the following day. The next day when I arrived I was greeted by John and he was as super cool in person as he was on the phone. I immediately knew why Matt picked Sparky's to take care of his truck. Fast forward about a week. I received a text from Matt. "Please give Sparky's a 5-star Yelp. They were f***n' awesome!" Next up is engine work and Sparky's even delivered the truck to Roy Wheeler Automotive where that will take place.

I brought my vehicle into Total Care Transmissions thinking I had a failing alternator. We've been…read morecoming to Julio and his family for a few years now for our everyday cars and once to rebuild our family's classic car. He did a quick preliminary diagnosis and gave me a fair quote for the alternator parts and labor. A few hours later, instead of just doing the expensive repair, he called me and explained that the alternator was actually fine -- the real problem was a wire that was shorting out and causing the symptoms. The repair ended up costing significantly less than expected because they were honest enough to fix the actual issue instead of replacing parts I didn't need. I also had them change the fluids and filters while it was there. He said it looked like my spark plugs needed changing as well. Everything was completed quickly and professionally. It's hard to find shops that are this honest and transparent these days. Highly recommend Total Care Transmissions for their integrity, communication, and quality work.

Like other yelpers I had a terrific experience for the critical service of getting our 2009 Honda's…read moretransmission fluid changed. I've learned this service is not offered by many general auto shop's ( like Firestone where we go normally for routine repairs). I learned it's recommended every 40-50K miles. .....and we were really overdue. JULIO got me in/ out in less than an hour. He's really professional, efficient, knowledgeable and GOOD PEOPLE!!! Now I have to get our other Honda in ASAP Look no further than this great business for specialty tranny works !

Because it was a machine wheel I did not expect perfection, but he filled, sanded, and painted the damage so it's difficult to see. It's now no longer noticeable unless you were looking for it, and it was a lot cheaper than replacing the wheel.

I'm just giving my expectations because I have high ones and they were unfortunately not met. I…read moregot minor curb rash on my wheels and had Arturo repair it. I will give concessions and say that he was a pleasant guy and really did try his best. Responsiveness is also a plus and mobile service also good. Arturo explained to me with this type of damage and the wheels that it was the best he can do. I Understand. I had some complex curves I understand, but the end results drew more attention to the area because of the rounded blending and spray paint to the area. Prior to fix the damage was almost hidden by the wheel lines. I've seen the companies work on other cars, which look amazing, which is why I decided to go with this company. I keep wondering if I should have just gone with a fix it kit for this. I'm sad to say for me this it wasn't a home run. Maybe AJ would have had another outcome. I cannot say. But paying $200 for 30 minute repair you don't expect perfection but results that are consistent with cost. I cannot confidently recommend but I am open to being proven incorrect.
