Great…read moreservice, took a while for the job to complete because I drive an older model Japanese car w/ a manual transmission. Every shop this car has been to has came back with problems except for this shop. Great work. Excellent service. The job took a little longer than 3 weeks if I recall, but I had another vehicle to drive at the time and the transmission was destroyed anyway. They showed me that whoever had worked on this car in the past had done such a poor and improper job. It's honestly criminal what they showed me, and I'm thankful they brought this information to my attention on top of sharing a lot of information about what to expect and how their work is completed.

would give Lee at Hollister Transmussion zero stars but there isn't an option…read moreHe screwed up two transmissions & does not stand behind his work, the first was a TH 400 for my cousin which I supplied him with quality Hughes components Alto clutches, Kolene steels etc. It failed within 3 weeks, I called Lee told him it was havibg issues, he didnt even attempt to say bring it in let me look at it, just quoted a 90 day guarantee for not using his parts, if course most projects are rarely completed in 90 days it was beyond the warranty even before he got it running I sent the transmission to world known race transmission shop & asked Mike to do a forensic teardown & inspection, the short version is a snap ring for the clutch pack was not fully seated & popped out (poor work & attention to detail period) Trans failure #2 A C4 for Legendary Fabricator Jack Hagemann's 34 coupe all work, core & parts supplied by Lee/Hollister Transmission It lasted 3 test drives, no return phone call to Jack or myself, shows Lee's character & lack of ability or work ethic. Avoid this shop at all cost, & get quality competent work done elsewhere, it is very unfortunate I was forced to compose this review, as Lee's wife sherry is very kind, professional and a nice person, however Lee's lack of communication and how he has failed on all levels not once but twice left me no choice Gary Allen Allen Enginewity

Finally an honest shop... I had a bad clutch master cylinder. I am pretty mechanically inclined and…read moreI knew all that was wrong with the clutch was the master cylinder.. I had them repair the part In question and they didn't come back with, "you also need to replace the slave cylinder, and your clutch is going bad as well." Your new total is $$$$$$$$$$$$. They replace the bad part and the clutch system is as good as new.. In short, they could have attempted to rip me off but they didn't. Prices were fair and turn around was speedy. I would recommend.

Busy looking shop (messy) with parts all over - the kind of "working space" a mechanic might love. Talked with "Old Man Eddie" on the phone and I immediately sensed he knew his business (I'm a former mechanic). He asked the right questions, and diagnosed over the phone. They weren't the cheapest, but most reasonable (mid/low-priced) and good quality work! My clutch now works better than it did when new, smoooth like butter. Can easily recommend their work - don't be put off by a dirty looking shop.

After checking out multiple shops, I decided to take my car to ray at the transmission clinic for a…read morecouple of reasons. First, he's been in gilroy since at least the early 90's. I figured he wouldn't have been in business that long if he was in the habit of screwing over his customers. Second, he's former military and I like supporting veterans. Given the other positive reviews, I expected to get decent service. He's a small independent mechanic with a no frills operation. Ray tells me to bring my car in on Thursday, because he was busy. I come back later that week and drop off my car. Ray then removed the transmission from my car to repair the squeaking noise my clutch was making, rendering it inoperable. Then he stopped working on my car for the next four weeks. Ray began working on other customers cars which were probably better paying than my small job. Week one the excuse was "we are waiting on parts to be delivered ". I knew this was a lie, because all the bearings and parts needed were in stock at the Napa auto parts, two doors down from his shop. Week two he said he was swamped with work, and would get to my car tomorrow. Each day I came to get my car he hadn't made any progress on it. It's about a 4 hour job to fix what needed to be replaced, it took four weeks. By week three, his response became "maybe tomorrow ". What could I do but throw my hands up and wait? My car was apart. By week four, I said this is getting ridiculous, so Ray promised to have my car ready to go by Tuesday at 1:00pm. Promise! By 1 pm the next day my car was not only not ready it was just getting worked on. My ride had to take me back home and I walked to work. Ray had apologized for not having the car ready, he said "sh!% happens, ya know." My car was finished later that day. The damage? $650 for labor (about $130 an hour) and $232 for parts and tax. I feel his prices are fair for the Bay Area. Your experience may vary. I think ray is a decent mechanic, but he has a hard time saying 'no' to other jobs and I suffered as a result. Not the most professional . I'll have my car towed to San Jose next time. I can't recommend this place.
