Transmission repair for Glenvar Heights drivers

The engine revs but the car is slow to pick up speed. Shifts come hard or late, especially after sitting in traffic. There is a pause when you put it in Drive or Reverse.

Also watch for red or brown spots where you park, a check engine light that shows up along with a shifting problem, and a burning smell after a slow commute. Any one of these is worth a diagnosis before it gets worse.

From most of Glenvar Heights, get on SW 72nd Ave and head north, then turn left on SW 42nd St, one block before Bird Road. From South Miami Senior High, take Miller Drive (SW 56th St) west to SW 72nd Ave, turn right and go north about a mile.

From the Palmetto Expressway, take the Bird Road exit. Heading south, turn left on Bird Road and go about half a mile. Heading north, turn right on Bird Road. Then turn right on SW 72nd Ave and right on SW 42nd St. From the middle of Glenvar Heights it is about 6 minutes outside rush hour.

We diagnose first. Some cars only need a fluid service, a solenoid or a leak fixed. Others need a rebuild or a replacement. If the cause is not clear yet, you approve the diagnostic fee before we start, and we tell you up front whether it counts toward the repair.

Then you get a written price with photos of your own car, so you see what we see. Sales tax goes on parts only, and you pick the warranty: 90 days, 1 year or 2 years. We text you at each step, the counter speaks English and Spanish, and we road test the car before you get the keys back.
