“Great company to work with. I used them to offload some equipment and they were knowledgeable, professional, priced very well and on time. Highly recommend and will use again”
“I used Capitol Transmission to check out my Nissan, which had a bad CVT transmission. Although I decided it was time to move on from the vehicle, I can’t say enough about the service I received. Paul informed me of all the issues that the car had and kept in communication with me. I can’t say enough about these guys. Five stars. 👍🏽”
“I can't tell you enough how wonderful and knowledgeable everyone is here! My mom used to come here many years ago before she passed, she only trusted Basals for her cars. I am so grateful I followed her footsteps. They took the time and helped to inspect my car. I've had such anxiety with my new purchase and they helped give me peace of mind. If you want caring, honest and real mechanics please trust me and go here! It's rare to find such good people :)”

“Great experience, they were able to get my car in right away and diagnose quickly. Really good price to get work done and quick turnaround. Will definitely be bringing my car here for any future work.”
“I rarely leave reviews, but This company has been nothing short of outstanding. Alex and his staff are very professional as well as very friendly. They are very knowledgeable and will not try to sell/push you something you don’t absolutely need. Talcott transmissions has helped my family out a handful of times. This establishment is one of the best places to get car work done. Come here with full confidence and satisfaction. Thanks again Alex and staff!”
“I have a 2014 Subaru Outback with 180,000 miles on it.
The check engine came on, and I took the car to a Subaru dealership. They let me know that the code was 2763 which indicates a problem in the transmission valve body.
They told me I had to replace the entire transmission for close to $7,000 versus around $2,000 for the valve body. I thought that was excessive and wanted to get a second opinion and took my car to Portland Automotive.
Portland Automotive thoroughly diagnosed the problem and confirmed that one of the valves was bad in the valve body and said I had to replace the valve body only.
They replaced the valve body in a timely manner, but unfortunately, when I got home, the check engine came back on and now there was a noticeable problem with the transmission.
I called Mike at Portland Automotive and he immediately said he’s going to send a tow truck to pick up my vehicle and take it back to the shop and make it right. Unfortunately, on the way back to Portland Automotive on the tow truck something happened to the radiator which caused it to start leaking.
Instead of charging me for a new radiator, they replaced it at no charge. They also redid the entire valve body repair and tested the car for three days to make sure everything was OK.
I’m happy to report as of now it is running smoothly.
I would highly recommend Portland Automotive for standing by their work and their honest evaluation of my transmission problem.”
“My car has a parasitic drain which is causing my battery to keeping dying on me. Although the exact problem was not able to be determined, I very much appreciated the advice and options given as to recommendations for who would be better at solving the electrical issue with my car. I usually go to brand name companies but this auto shop has twice now provided exceptional service and quite frankly just seem to be all around nice people. I plan on sending my car off to auto heaven and getting a new one and ex per tech will be my go to auto shop. I highly recommend them.”
“The guys at Tony’s always take good care of our vehicles. I’ve serviced my Golf R, my e36, and my wife’s GLI and they always do a great job. They even go above and beyond to find good deals on parts outside of their suppliers to give you the best possible price. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to friends and family. Thanks guys!”
“Paul was very professional informative and graceful and very fair with the pricing I like it that he leaves the customer feeling like they weren't taking advantage of”
“I was worried when it appeared that I would need a new transmission. I was concerned that whichever shop I chose, I would end up spending several thousand dollars on a new or rebuilt transmission whether I needed one or not. I selected Transmission Works based on the reviews indicating that the owner Ron runs an honest shop. I can fully attest that this is the case as Ron and his team found a small leak that was making my transmission lose fluid and perform very poorly. The problem was repaired in a day. Thanks Ron!”

“I have been bringing my BMW and Volvo vehicles to Bill's Automotive for the last 7 years. I've always found them to be very knowledgeable and professional, as well as honest and providing reliable services. Andy is a great addition to the team!”
“Great Staff! Experience was smooth and honest. They handled aftermarket warranty company for aproval and repair. Nothing from me besides contacting before drop off. Car was clean, problem fixed. Engine bay was back together as if no repairs. Def will bring back Mercedes-Benz to get repaired n or serviced.”
“Great diagnostic work by Alex and Jay. They found things that other shops ignored. I'm very happy with the work they did and pleased that they had the ability to search out parts for my 1998 Chevy C 1500 WT. God bless Manchester transmission.”
“If you’ve ever heard, it’s not the problem it’s how you respond to a problem that counts.
We had an issue with the service done on our motor coach. I didn’t notice the problem until after I brought it home. I immediately called Mike in the service dept. And without hesitation he told me to bring it back and he would make sure I was happy. Mike never became defensive or unprofessional he apologized and took responsibility for the shortcomings. Mike promised me he would correct the issue and that I would be 100% satisfied. I want anyone who reads this to know I am 100% satisfied and because of Mike’s commitment to correcting my concerns I will definitely return for my next service.
Thank you Mike.”
“I couldn’t ask for a better experience for getting an emissions test, it’s CASH only so that was the only minor inconvenience but I think that’s standard across any licensed facility. They quoted me 10 mins on the phone, it might’ve been 8.It’s $20.00 as of the time of this post.”

“I recently relocated to CT and had no idea where to start to find a decent and trustworthy garage. I started by popping in to get a VIN verification as they are less than two miles from work, quick and easy.
Last week I easily set up an appointment online for oil change, tire rotation and a brake check. To my surprise and delight, I was texted and told the current level of the brake pads and that I did not need to replace them at this time. They did recommend replacing both interior and exterior filters which I approved. This was a choice of convenience as paying labor for something I can do is just lazy...
Nothing was done without explanation and a system that allows for text approval. I was advised to return after 25 miles to double check the torque on the tires. I returned this morning, after about 200 miles and they took about 90 seconds to check it and get me on my way. I appreciate the follow up even if others find it an irritant.
I almost forgot, I left my jacket and Yeti at their desk and it was right where I left it this morning.
I expect this will be my garage for the foreseeable future. Thank you!”
“I’m from out of town and noticed the car was off. I took it to Roggi’s and in less than two hours they had looked at the car and fixed it enough for me to drive back to New Hampshire. Chris and the team made me feel at home while I waited and took the time to show me what was wrong. You can feel their passion for cars and doing things right. I cannot recommend Roggi’s enough.”

“2nd time using Main Street transmission . Thanks cars lol. First time I had a Chevy Malibu with a 2.4 with the 6-speed paddle shifts rebuilt. And the second time I had my 2011 Chevy HHR with 2.4 auto with that one I didn't have a torque converter clutch it was highly recommended that I actually just switch out the whole transmission as well because of the metal shavings getting into the transmission. So I provided a suitable transmission with low miles which Mike and his team switched out within a day.. very reasonable rates to switch out a transmission I also was impressed with the rebuild time as well on my Malibu..”
“These are the most honest mechanics I've ever met. Another shop told me that my torque converter is bad and I needed an $8k transmission (but they told me that I could still drive the car?). Something felt off and I wanted another opinion, so I called Portland Transmission. They got me in next day. I dropped the car off at 9:45 AM and they called me at 12:30 PM with a diagnosis: it wasn't the torque converter or anything in the transmission, but a misfire in the engine. Went to pick up the car and they charged me NOTHING for diagnosis. If they were in it for the money, they easily could have told me that the first mechanic was correct or charged me for diagnosis. Very grateful for the honesty. Will go to them if I ever need transmission work and will recommend them to everyone I know!”
“I brought both my BMW’s in to AAMCO and they did a great job servicing and fixing my car right away. Jay was very helpful and explained the entire process from start to finish. This is now my permanent car shop for all of my car issues with any of my cars.”
“On point very friendly & professional one of the guys Ardy I go in just to speak to him. He's the light at the end of the tunnel really good people I would suggested you get your car service here well worth it ☆☆☆☆☆”
“Thankyou so much to Rose and Syed!, you are incredibly professional, accommodating and extremely helpful. The entire process was transparent, upfront and smooth as can be. I’m very happy with my purchase and look forward to working with you in the future.
Thankyou again!”
“The first guy to welcome me was sooo kind he even did a little dance as directing me over the bay. Great personality had me laughing he even set the alert so I do not loose track of my milage again. The guy who did my oil change had an amazing personality and was kind as well. I will absolutely be coming back in 5,000 miles?. Thanks guys hope you have a great holiday season.Service: Oil change”
“Very quick service at a reasonable price! I reached out to Rick Friday afternoon and had an appointment for Sunday evening. Vehicle was ready to go before I woke up Monday morning. Rick works at night, which is great for anyone with only one vehicle who can’t be without a vehicle for work/school etc. Drop off the vehicle in the evening and it’ll be ready before you need to start your day.”
