TransCo did work on my Mazda transmission and car was never the same. As a woman I can't recommend this place unless you want to be mansplained. Not willing to do what was necessary to fix the problem. Finally my mechanic found a transmission leak after they did the work and insisted it was fine and they addressed that after multiple calls and visits. But after they worked on car shifting was sticky and sometimes totally froze up. Sold the car. read more

Great experience with Jeff and the owners Dave & Suzie Fast efficient helped with towing my car to their shop and my car was ready a day later. Highly recommend this shop. read more

I took my 2003 Expedition in to Transco since two different friends had highly recommended them as an honest shop to work with. My transmission was slipping and jerking and I wasn't sure what was wrong, but also didn't want to get taken advantage of since I was basically clueless on what was happening. When I arrived, I was pleased to see everyone masked and observing social distancing protocols which immediately made me comfortable. They repaired my car while I waited, the bill was extremely reasonable, and I am on the road again with a smile on my face and a smoothly running car. My heroes! Great guys with the right attitude of helping!! read more

Thank you, Dave! I still am so appreciative of all the help you gave me. From sending me a tow truck, to arranging a car rental minutes before they closed. Since I was caught from out of town, your quick response got me home that night. I also thank you for making me feel like you had all the time I needed to discuss my transmission options. It's been a long time since I've received such excellent customer service from any business! read more

The guy at the front counter should not work with the public. I walked in as referred by someone to help me find a tool for a repair I was doing. I stood quietly and waited as this person at the counter was discussing a repair with a customer. He seemed OK then he asked me what i waned I explained another shop suggested I come in and see if I could buy, borrow or rent a stupid $2 to $5 tool. I could not find one at Napa, O'Rileys, Auto zone, Smothers, and one other transmission shop as their mechanic was off due to illness. The guy went crazy on me. I explained I have a Chevy 5 speed transmission and was putting a new clutch in and needed this tool to center my clutch so when I torque the bolts the clutch lines up and my transmission goes in. He says How do I know which one you want. I have a bucket full, and not one with your car or name on it? its a common tool. Its used on Chevy S10 pick ups all years with 5 speed transmissions. On Chevy Camero's, Ford Mustangs, AMC products, and also Jeep..... So why did the guy treat me Like I was asking him to make it rain, and or like I wanted a miracle from GOD? I wouldn't let them touch my car, and anyone who does your a fool. if he represents this company they need to replace him as he has been working too long.... read more

Took my Jeep Wrangler in for a transmission rebuild. Amazing service and amazing people! Will recommend you guys for any transmission needs. Thank you!! read more

Transco - Auto Repair Near Me - Santa Rosa, California

Transco is the bomb! Dave and Jason really took care of me in my time of need. My Honda's tranny pooped out, so I had it towed to the dealer for diagnosis. Dealer tried to tell me that the problem was related to using wrong transmission fluid, which didn't sound right. So, gave the guys at Transco a call and they took care of it from there. Dave towed my car from the dealer, diagnosed the problem, and had the car ready to go when I got back from my trip. Great service, good value, and friendly folks who know what they're doing. read more

Beware of the specials. I made an appointment to get my transmission fluid changed. I found a special on their website, $114 for a change plus filter. When I arrived for my appointment, I was told that all the racks were full and they were very busy, I remarked that this was the reason I made the appointment to avoid a long wait. Then I was told that the "special" was $144, but it did not apply to my vehicle because I had to have synthetic fluid which was $198. They ended up getting it done within a couple of hours, but I was frustrated about the false adverting about the price. read more

This is the best place to take your car in Sonoma county! Dave is such a nice guy and knows what he is doing. Go to Transco they will not disappoint! read more

Honest people! Told me my estimate including taxes etc. So I knew what to expect to walk out the door. I love that they are not a chain repair shop. read more

I just spent $10,174. having my transmission rebuilt after Transco botched their rebuild job. I have only put 12,337 miles on my vehicle since their rebuild. Transco ruined the case by drilling out the pinion, had only 5 frictions in the B-2 clutch, K-3 drum and K-2 drum, and the check ball vent was smashed because they used the wrong size shims. The shop that rebuilt my transmission this time said they were amazed it lasted as long as it did. If you have a German transaxle don't let these guys touch it. They are incompetent. read more

Each day I drive my 1992 Dodge Cummins.. I have a smile on my face! The fellas as Transco rebuilt my transmission. Apparently, this is the third on this 450K mile vehicle, but the second in my ownership. I appreciate the good advice about how to reinforce this transmission based on what I use it for. This is a work truck, a beast of burden, used to pull heavy equipment trailers and farm related tasks. I was wary of "hot rod" parts since my goals were reliability and fuel economy, not doing smokey burnouts, "rolling coal", and other juvenile activities. Dave assured me that the reinforcements and shift kit would result in a longer lasting unit, AND my fuel economy is up about 2MPG (from 13 to 15MPG in town). I'm sorry to say I've worked with other shops that don't stand behind their work and are no heroes to me.. but these guys are true "stand-up" men. Nice having strong brakes on the truck for the first time also.. thanks fellas. read more

These guys are awesome!!! After having a horrible experience at another shop these guys went above and beyond to help us out and got our truck fixed for a very reasonable price! I would totally recommend them to anyone!!!!! read more

I recently had the transmission in my VW go out, and took a chance, letting my 'fingers do the walking'. I could not be any more pleased or impressed with the professionalism and customer service demonstrated by Transco. The estimate was about what I expected, so I released the work. I received a call later that day, informing me of a possible leak that would require sealing for a small fee, and that they wanted my authorization before they started. $50 on a $1600 job may seem trivial, but I've been surprised before w/ unexpected charges at other places, and was greatly appreciated. The car was finished ahead of schedule, and even w/ the additional work, the total was less than quoted! On top of that, Transco has a policy to have the customer bring the vehicle back after 15 days to check the install for any problems, which really filled me w/ confidence. A very positive experience, and would heartily recommend them to any one needing transmission service! read more

Wow- an auto repair shop I can absolutely trust! My '08 Saturn never had problems until last week when I could not shift gears. I didn't know what was going on, so I really wanted to be able to trust the shop I was going to have AAA tow it to because once it was there, it was there and would have to be towed again if I didn't pay the place do the work. AAA would tow my Saturn to its nearest facility, but there were no reviews on the place and it wasn't a member of the Better Business Bureau. Fortunately that BBB research lead me to Transco in Santa Rosa - a BBB Accredited business since 1999 with zero complaints! Lots of 5-star yelp! reviews and now I'm a very satisfied customer too. The person helping me was Jason. He was quick, thorough, very reasonably priced, and patient enough to answer all my questions (over the phone and again when I picked up my car). Thanks! read more

QUALITY WORK, HONEST MECHANICS My 1996 Honda was having noise issues in higher speeds so I took it to a local shop and they said that the transmission was making the noise, and recommended that I take it to Transco. I took my car there and told them about what I learned and dropped it off for a diagnostic. I came back an hour later and the owner Dave told me that it was not the transmission after all but bad wheel bearings and the brakes needed to be replaced. I could not have been more relieved that I didn't need a new transmission, and that he was HONEST with me! He gave me a very reasonable price quote for the work and when I agreed he was very enthusiastic and told me he would make it run like new. I mean.. he made ME excited to get the work done! I am very pleased to say that after one week my car runs like new as promised! I couldn't be happier with the customer service and the work done to my car. He even gave me a ride to my house when I dropped off my car to be worked on. I will be recommending Transco to all my friends and be taking it there for work in the future. Thanks guys!!! read more

Really impressed with their work and honest suggestions on what I have to have done right away and what repairs can wait. Don't have a lot of money to spend on car repairs. Took car in for transmission work a few years ago and it's still going strong. I've had belts, lights, brakes and other minor repairs done over the years. They have always been helpful in showing me what needs to be repaired, either by writing it down or showing me a picture of the part on my car that was bad. So, Thank You Transco for making my car last longer and run even better! read more

Thank you Transco for getting my car back up and running like new! I was having transmission issues and called Transco to see if they could see me at the last minute. Im not the most car savvy person, but Dave was able to take care of the issues my car was having and got it back to me within a few days. Dave was incredibly helpful and kept me updated throughout the whole process, and explained everything they did to fix my car. The price was even lower than I was expecting! I highly recommend Transco and I am very appreciative for the work they were able to do! They are honest and will do the work that dealerships and other shops wont do. read more

Excellent customer service and attention to detail!! Dave walked us through every step of the way and made sure we understood exactly what we did and did NOT need! With so many other places trying to take advantage of you being mechanically illiterate it's refreshing to know that there are still some good honest people out there who value customer service and integrity! Thank you Transco! We'll be using you for all our auto maintenance needs read more

I have been to this shop several times for miscellaneous auto service needs and have always walked away satisfied with their work as well as the reasonableness of their pricing. this is a very honest shop and staff is friendly and knowledgeable read more

BE CAUTIOUS when choosing to do have your vehicle repaired at this shop! I brought my vehicle in to have them diagnose the check engine light. After having them change the oxygen sensor and $438 later (just to replace the O2 sensor), the check engine came back on. They then recommended that I have the EGR system reamed out to remove carbon build up. Three weeks and $735 later, the check engine light came back on. I bring the car back to them and was told it was the SAME code. This time they suggested that I replace the EGR temperature sensor. Not only did they keep my vehicle for another 3 weeks because they needed to order the part, etc. they then tell me that the new temp sensor tested the same as the existing. They said they had to go deeper to clean more carbon in the EGR system and charged me another $229. REALLY?! So I paid them. Do the math..$1400 later and being in their shop more in the past two months than being driven on the road, my car died at an intersection after a hard start. Giving Dave the benefit of the doubt, I brought my car back to Transco one more time. They couldn't diagnose the NEW SAFETY issue and recommended that I bring my car to a specialist. They wanted to refer me to another shop, however, using my better judgment I declined their referral and took my car to a REAL mechanic. My new mechanic found a newly broken camshaft sensor along with an existing coolant leak. I had both problems fixed and learned that the camshaft sensor is in the same location the all of the work that Transco performed on the past two invoices. Not only did I pay Transco almost $1,000 in an attempt fix the recurring check engine light issue which they could not, apparently I paid them to create another issue! Being a reasonable person, I decided to present Dave with the invoice from my new mechanic and the broken camshaft sensor, seeking compensation for the replacement of the broken part plus labor. I made several attempts to give Dave the opportunity to make it right and he failed at every attempt. If you care about the safety of financial well-being of your family, DO NOT BRING YOUR VEHICLE TO THIS SHOP!!! read more

Charged 300 didn't fix the job. No recommended !! Live and we learn

Awesome service!!!! I went to several transmission shops in search for the fastest and cheapest service and thankfully found transco! My experience was amazing! Dave the owner was so helpful and honest. I'm a young girl that doesn't know too much about cars so it was nice to be in a place that didn't try to con me into outrageous prices like the others!! I'm so grateful I found them because now I can drive around worry free :) read more

I bought a truck off someone and was having transmission issues after the first week. They had put a bandaid over some problems and I spent a lot of hours and money tracking down the problem. I wish I had taken it to Transco first. Within a minute or two of speaking with Dave, I felt comfortable that I had made the right decision bringing it here. He explained a few things in a very concise manner that I could understand and sold me the right part, the firs time, at a very reasonable price. As I moved further into the tranny, I needed to bring it back to him for more diagnostics and can't say enough positive things about him and the work that Transco did for me. With absolutely no reservations, I'll be recommending them and using them for any service that they provide that I don't want to do myself. Utmost professionals! read more

As I drove home from an assignment, I knew I was having transmission issues. As a girl I know that when I put on the gas and the engine revs, am not in gear. Could only inch my way towards home. Then I see TRANSCO transmission! right there in front of me. Dave noticed the back of my car was covered with a layer of greasy stuff..said transmission oil. He put some fluid in so I could be on my way and make an apt for service. The fluid was running out of the engine as fast as he was putting it in. They fit me into their busy day around customers who had appointments as Dave said could not drive it with that level of a leak. I found out they do auto repair, so as a woman who drives, am glad to find I can take other vehicle issues to them. read more
