We brought our 2002 Mustang in for clutch repair. They notified us of other things they found with the car that needed immediate attention and cleared everything through us first before proceeding. After all was said and done, the car drove like new again. You couldn't beat the costs of parts and labor there. The service was phenomenal where we felt like we were treated like family. Highly, highly recommend this place. Thank you Miramar Transmission!

Miramar Transmission is by far the most dependable, reliable, and trustworthy auto care service center in San Diego. As a referral, I brought my car in for transmission and AC service. Bryce, the manager, and his team is very professional, service oriented, and kind. They helped me get my car back out on the road quickly, I highly recommend Miramar Transmission to anyone in need of full service auto care.

Frank and his team run a smooth and professional business. I needed an upgraded clutch installed on my 2023 Acura Integra. The quote that I was offered over the phone was fair. The service requested was delivered ahead of schedule. I was absolutely delighted how my transmission worked after the install. Honest and quality driven - if you need a reliable shop to work on your car, come check them out!

I highly recommend Miramar Transmission!! I've been there twice now for my 2015 Ford F250, once in June 2020 for my 90K service and just today again for brake pads and rotors. I was recommended to them from neighbors on Facebook who also highly recommended Miramar Transmission. Family owned, Frank and his team were super professional, friendly, competent and reasonably priced. I hate going to dealers and I've had a couple of bad experiences with local mechanics over the years so I made sure to ask neighbors for referrals. Truly glad and grateful to have found this trustworthy team of mechanics. Thank you Frank and team I'll keep coming back and refer you to friends and family!

Bought a used car and took it to a local San Diego mechanic (Wolf's Foreign Car Service) for a pre-purchase inspection during the grace period. They detected a transmission issue and referred us to Miramar Transmission.

‍

Frank at Miramar Transmission offered extremely cordial and honest service. He communicated with us clearly and provided quick service to accommodate our limited timeline. This is the place you want to go for any transmission issues as they will only tell you what you need and not try to sell you on anything else. Highly recommend this service!

These guys did a terrific job resurrecting my 22 year old Audi TT and did work that other shops either turned up their noses at or screwed up entirely. They weren't looking to make a quick buck, but rather doing quality work and getting it right. Finding a driveshaft for a decades old Audi was challenging (no longer available from Audi) but they pulled it off and got me back on the road. I've driven the car for over 1,000 miles since the repair and everything is working fine. Highly recommended.

Couldn't be more happier with the service I received from Frank and his team at Mirimar Transmission. My 2014 wrx had a blown solenoid on the transmission. I took it to Frank based on a recommendation from my tuner. I can't thank him enough for the recommendation. I had it on Franks lot Monday morning and was driving it home Tuesday afternoon. Not only we're they responsive and professional, but THEY ALSO DETAILED MY CAR FOR ME. I will say it hadn't seen a car wash in a while but for them to do that makes me want to turn my friends and family to their business. (Not saying they will detail your car) but they went above and beyond for me and in 24 hours I had my car back looking brand new and running amazing. Again Thank you Frank and the Mirimar Transmission team. You'll have my business and recommendation from here on out.

Wow, if you need a transmission this place has a warranty that they clearly care about. They want you to bring your car back so they can best honor their own company warranty. That is above and beyond that of the dealerships warranty on the parts. There was a literal voice on the phone, asking me to bring my car in. That they wanted to check it at or around 30 days. The warranty they get is longer than that. This is just, MT wants to make sure it's done right part of the warranty. WARRANTY REVIEW This is about the Warranty they provide on newly installed transmissions. If you were thinking about using them versus anyone else for a new transmission you should read this first.. We have all been punched in the gut and kicked while we are down when it comes when it comes to warranties. Companies would rather close down and move before they honor their warranties. That's why what happened at MT is so shocking. MT slaps me in face with a glove like it's the 1900's then grabbed me by the lapel lifts me off the ground, shakes me looks me in the eyes and says this is how warrantees really work. I didn't know what to say. They MT had just called me because it had been like 28 days and they wanted to inspect their own work. WTH who does that???

This is just, MT wants to make sure it's done right part of the warranty. Look I have warrantees that warrantee the warranty and no one has ever called me to check that the work they did was flawless. Ever, never try to call a company about a warranty and you get crickets and tumbleweeds. Slap Slap, "Are you there?" Now I see why they need the slaps, you might think your dreaming. MT didn't uproot their shop to avoid their warranty. No, they called, they reached out, they said bring it back we want to check it. See here is where it gets even more surreal, I can't inspect the transmission. I don't really know where it is, so leaving that up to me is not really valid. They didn't leave it up to me, they wanted to make sure it was done right. So I bring it in, this guy in a onesie takes my car drives it, lifts it up in the air and pokes the car with a stick. Then grabs another coworker buddy. They hand me my keys they are smiling from ear to ear, high-fiving each other that they did a superhero job on the transmission and that it's awesome. I am awkward going, "Yay transmission stuff" but these two acting like my older car is the next space shuttle. Wow, if you need a transmission this place has a warranty that they clearly care about. I found them on Yelp if you made it this far you know what to do next.

Frank and his team of mechanics can still provide you with "old school" logic and solutions for your vintage vehicles. Thank God for Frank, his kids, his mechanics and Doreen!

Fair price and outstanding customer service from beginning to end. Nobody wants to have their transmission be the issue, but if it is - Miramar Transmission is the place to go. They even do a recheck at 500 miles for free, that's how much they stand behind their work. I took my very high mileage older Nissan Sentra in and got a new transmission installed and programmed, no delays, done when promised at the agreed upon price. They were honest from the start about worst case scenario and priced out the rebuild for me to make sure I had all options presented. These guys are the best.

They repaired the transmission on my euro car. Car shifts just like new again. Only downside is that it took a while to get parts in due to shortages and the obscurity of the part I needed.

‍

Also, I came in knowing exactly what work my car required and had to stick to my guns to only have that work done.

‍

With that said, the price was more than fair for the work rendered. And the repair is still good today, so they know what they are doing, and did an excellent job.

‍

Would recommend, especially if you have a unique\dealer-locked transmission.

Look no further for an honest and quality shop. Bryce will take great care of you. I recently closed my own shop in San Diego and moved out of state. I'm very particular with my vehicles and service. I'm so happy to have found this shop to handle anything that comes up when the kiddos are in need.

Most recently my sons 08 BMW 328i has been having aging Beemer issues. Bryce has been great to work with and provides a thorough and detailed diagnosis with very reasonable pricing. I will continue to have work done here and will 100% recommend them to my friends and family still living in San Diego.

My 2003 Tahoe needed a major overhaul. My transfer case and transmission needed a full rebuild. I was referred here by another mechanic shop which shocked me. Anyways, they were extremely professional from the start. I was given multiple options to help with my budget but I decided to get the job done all the way, and I'm extremely glad I did. The warranty is great too. Got my vehicle back within a week and it was a lot of work. I highly recommend this shop, you've gained a loyal customer for life! Thank you

Miramar Transmission gets a well-deserved 5/5 stars for their exceptional service and expertise in handling car transmission issues. I was experiencing shifting problems, such as slipping gears and rough shifts, which are common symptoms of transmission trouble. Bryce, a staff member at the shop, was incredibly helpful, not pushy, and worked with me to resolve the issue. Ultimately, I needed a transmission rebuild.

‍

It's important to note that they charge $1,000 to remove and disassemble the transmission for evaluation. This means that it might not be the most practical option if you're looking to diagnose the problem and then move your car to another shop for a second opinion. However, the quality of their work speaks for itself, as my car now runs exceptionally smoothly.
