Oakland Auto Repair & Transmission

Fast friendly service.

Recommended by the nice Shell station folks at Wildwood and Grand Ave., I was happy to learn that the shop is close to where I live off Piedmont Ave. I've been driving my neighbors part-time to airports, hospitals, etc., for the last 18 years and am dependent on my car for some income, now supplementing my social security. Unexpectedly, I had a major transmission issue and needed to get the problem diagnosed and fixed as soon as possible. Paul handled all of the communication with me and was positive, professional, clear and helpful. In addition, he was never dismissive, as some mechanics can be with women. So happy after all these years to find a great car doctor close to my home, and if needed, rental car places. Very grateful for taking such good care of my appendage and independence.

Helpful from the get go, excellent costumer service and easy to work with.

Great service and also dog friendly, can't be beat!

I fix my own cars but when I can't this is the only place I will go.

I had a problem with my Subaru Wrx shifting oddly and catching weird from 1st to 2nd gear. After I couldn't diagnoise the problem myself, I was recommened by a friend to go to Paul and Reece. Man am I glad I did! They found and fixed every single thing that was wrong with the valve body and identified minor issues that could have caused more issues. All that with great customer service and fair pricing. Can't beat family own places like this.Will definitely be back if I run into another issue.Thanks to Paul and Reece for doing such an awesome job and taking good care of my car.

These guys are fabulous! Took our Ford Focus to them with transmission problems that the dealer and Aamco could not figure out. They solved our problems and got us on the way! Professional and VERY knowledgeable. They do all the work on all our cars now. Highly recommend!

I recently was passing through San Francisco and had been hearing a whine in what i thought was my transmission. Paul, I think his name is, checked it out and told me it was a differential gear and too expensive to fix on my old car. No attempt to sell me an expensive repair--just good assessment and an honest recommendation! ! ! I highly recommend him and wish he was in my own town.

These guys are awesome, reputable, and do quality work. I've taken my old Yukon as well as my new Mercedes, and have never been happier. Reece and his guys take their time, do quality work, and are truthful. I recommend these guys to all my friends
