The guys over at STS were great. Very professional, knowledgeable, communicative. Job was inexpensive compared to others I received a quote from. I had to take my pickup in for a transmission lead frame issue. They scheduled me an appointment, dropped my truck off at 9 AM and drove out of there at 1 PM. Never had such a good experience with a shop before. They even had the part I needed on hand (not a common part). Beyond pleased with the service I received. If you have a transmission issue, go here!! read more

Honest and affordable. 1969 Chevy. Thought my transmission went out again. Used 1st gear to get to his shop. He instantly knew what was wrong. Had to come back the following day and he had it for a couple hours. Turns out it was a small plastic part that I had never even heard of before. It's plastic gears got stripped and was preventing my transmission from changing gears. I was prepared to spend $1,000+ and he was able to fix my existing transmission in a couple hours and all pets and labor came to less than $200! I was shocked in the best way and impressed. He could have easily ripped me off or charged me way more. He was super honest and did an excellent job. I highly recommend this business. Thank you! read more

STS Transmissions - He knows classics. Honest and affordable. - Auto Repair Near Me - Sarasota, Florida

Traveled to Sarasota over holiday to visit family. Unexpectedly my transmission went kaput. STS Transmissions and the owner Marlin was recommended by my relatives and they were a lifesaver. Amazing friendly professional service as I was treated like a person (actually like a VIP) not just a paying customer. Could not recommend them any more highly. Can now have a Happy New Year! read more

Very honest and friendly service, showed me the exact issue with my car. Will be returning :)

Rebuilt my transmission for 4,000 and dealer was going to charge me 5,800. 2 year 30k mile warranty and I hope to go well beyond 30k miles so no car payment for a few years. read more

They replaced my transmission with a new one, which included a manufacturers warranty. The best thing about the shop is Marlin the mechanic. He does great work, is honest and very helpful. The work they did was good, but they are not good with follow up and they're slow. I had to keep calling to get updates on what was going on with my car. My biggest complaint is the new transmission that they put in my car immediately began to fail, which is not their fault; the supplier sent them a bad transmission. But what was incredibly frustrating was I kept calling back to STS and telling them something was wrong with the new transmission. This wasn't Marlin, but another front office guy test drove it and kept telling me there was nothing wrong. He actually cleared me to drive it all the way up to Virginia, because he said I just needed to "be patient, give it more time, it's doing exactly what it's supposed to do." I got it up to Virginia, and it just got worse. Took it in to a dif mechanic, and right away he says "Yes, your two month old transmission is failing." It's now being replaced, under warranty, and I'm not paying a dime. But I'm very disappointed and annoyed that I kept getting blown off. Maybe someone just didn't want to work on my car anymore, idk. But if you go to STS, deal with Marlin and no one else. read more

The Sarasota Firefighters Benevolent Fund owns a 1945 Mack fire truck (newer engine and transmission) the park lock out wasn't functioning properly; Steve and the folks at STS fixed the problem, and wouldn't take any payment for the repair! TOP NOTCH ORGANIZATION! Thank you! read more

Super honest staff, I thought I was going to need a whole new transmission and it turned out to be just a repair. I am very happy with the service and staff at STS and would recommend them to anyone that needs service and repair. read more

Needed a transmission rebuild. I shopped around. Met with Marlin at STS. Great pricing and superior service. It was nice to finally work with a vendor that is honest and reliable! My SUV runs perfectly. Marlin asked me to come back the following week for a re-check just to make sure things were good. That is what I call excellent customer service. Thank you again and I would highly recommend Marlin and his staff. Dawn T. read more
