"YOU NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION" is what the General Repair or Dealer shops tell their customers with transmission problems. That's their only option since most technicians are not experienced with internal transmission repairs. All they can do is replace the whole transmission! We can properly diagnose and repair your transmission problem whether it be it internal or external, minor or more involved. Transmission repair is a specialized field. You wouldn't go to a foot doctor for a heart transplant! Many times we can repair your car without replacing the whole unit. Call or stop by for your second opinion before you buy that NEW TRANSMISSION.

Our newer cars are controlled more and more by computers. Your transmission is probably shifted electrically by a computer. Most cars have multiple computers that communicate between each other. Poor engine performance or the dreaded "Check engine" light can feel like a transmission not working properly. We can fix that!

Many times we have customers that come in with a transmission concern. Often they have an issue with the engine that can affect the transmission operation. Our experience with driveability diagnosis and repair will assure you that we can find the cause. Let us give you a private road test and consultation concerning your car and all of your auto service needs.

Joe Shilling Inc pledges to all of our customers that we will not remove a transmission from a vehicle in order to complete a repair unless absolutely necessary. Additionally our shop promises to diagnose transmission problems for all of our local and surrounding area customers in an honest and expert manner. Our shop strives to provide prompt and courteous service to all who visit our automotive repair facility in the hope that you will come back to us for all of your automotive repair needs.
