PATIO TRANSMISSIONS is a locally based Transmission Repair Facility with a dedication to quality. With over 15 years experience of hands-on transmission rebuilding and repairs, you can count on us to do the job right the first time. PATIO TRANSMISSIONS has all of the "Special Tools" and "State of the Art" testing equipment for today's intricate Automatic Transmission. Foreign or Domestic, we use only the best parts available. When you get an overhaul at PATIO TRANSMISSIONS, you ARE getting the very best!

The Automatic Transmission has always been a complex device! It is your vehicle's most complicated and least understood major component. Yet, the older 3-Speed design seems primitive today. Front wheel drive, Overdrive, and Electronics, make today's automatic transmission more complicated than ever. At PATIO TRANSMISSIONS, we concentrate on every detail. Our technicians receive all of the factory training, and technical service bulletins needed to keep up with modern technology. Every possible upgrade must be performed to meet our high expectations of customer satisfaction.

Dont get sucked in by most transmission shop's "get you in the door" estimate!! They will give you a low price going in, but once they get your transmission into 1000 pieces, they call you with the bad news! Now the price is usually doubled, and it's too late to bail out, because if you do, YOU are charged the full original estimate for disassembly fees! And like that's not enough, you will have to pay to have your vehicle towed to another shop! You can count on PATIO TRANSMISSIONS to give you the WHOLE STORY up front. Taking fluid condition, trans type, and driving symptoms into consideration, we'll give you an accurate estimate with no surprises. Unless your transmission is totally launched, we will stick to our estimate. Guaranteed!

At PATIO TRANSMISSIONS, you will get a Top Notch Overhaul at an unbelievably low price! But dont let the reduced cost scare you away. PATIO TRANSMISSIONS fights high repair costs with a very low overhead. We take pride in saving people money, while insisting on doing only a first class job! At PATIO TRANSMISSIONS, a "Patch Job" is out of the question! We can make a COMPLETE Transmission Overhaul affordable for you! And with a 12-month, unconditional Warrantee, (on most cars) you can rest assured that your money was well spent!

In terms of performance and durability for an automatic transmission, the most important improvement that can be made is to re-calibrate the Control Assemblies. 95% of shift performance comes from calibration. At PATIO TRANSMISSIONS, every transmission overhaul gets a calibration kit. For firmness and longevity, our transmissions define utmost quality.
