Technological Diagnostics Service in Kingston, Ontario

Advanced Technology for Assessing Transmission Problems

At Mister Transmission we have access to leading-edge diagnostic equipment, enabling us to offer you the fastest and most accurate findings about what’s going on inside your vehicle’s transmission. Today’s vehicles come equipped with complex computer systems. Our technology can talk to your car’s computer systems to find your specific transmission problems.

The first step in assessing your transmission involves your technician connecting the diagnostic equipment to your vehicle’s on-board computer. This will produce a code stating where the problem lies. Next, the vehicle is taken for a test drive so that we can monitor its behaviour in real-time. While more comprehensive and hands-on evaluations may yet be required, technology is an important tool in determining the right starting point for further investigations.

My girlfriend and I had to have the flex plate/ flywheel replaced on our 2017 Dodge Journey SXT. We both said “ oh great , we won’t be able to afford to have it fixed. The finance company that financed the car has a list of approved locations that they send customers to for repairs. We have an extended warranty on the car. Thats another story altogether. The first place we took it to ( won’t name the company because that’s going to be a separate review) quoted us $2,300 to fix it with parts and labour. We figured because it was transmission related, we figured that was acceptable. Then we found out that the extended warranty wouldn’t cover it. On top of that, they never took it for a road test. This is where MR. TRANSMISSION comes into play. They are also an approved repair location. We took it there, explained what was the problem was. First thing they did and said was that they were going to take it for a road test, to confirm what the issue was at no charge whatsoever. They confirmed that it was indeed the flex plate / flywheel . Here is where we decided that MR. TRANSMISSION was going to get all of our future business. They quoted us $1,358 including taxes, parts and labour. They also confirmed that the extended warranty wouldn’t cover not cover the cost of the repairs. Now here is where things got even better for us. They deal with a 3rd party warranty/ insurance company that covers repairs, and they approved the repairs for us. All we had to pay was a $53 deductible. Then make bi-weekly or monthly payments. So there was more than $1,000 dollars difference between the 2 separate quotes and they gave us a 1 year warranty on the repairs, no questions asked. So hats off to MR. TRANSMISSION for the awesome customer service and professionalism. They went the extra mile for us. Also a big thank-you to Jennifer for walking us through the process and keeping our frayed nerves to a minimum. JOB WELL DONE MR.TRANSMISSION

amazing experience! I recently brought my 2018 GMC Sierra to Mr. Transmission, Matt was amazing to deal with, my truck was having issues with the torque converter shutter over 100km/h and a hard shift between 1st and 2nd gear. Matt and his team did a rebuild on the transmission, explained everything in detail and had different options and they were extremely patient and understanding when it came to warranty, and picking/dropping off the truck! definitely a happy customer!!!!

I recently had my car into a shop to replace my wheel bearing, I got a call that a seal on my transmission needed to be replaced and was leaking and would need to go to a transmission shop, which caused some stress as it’s a month before birthdays/christmas. My shop told me they had called Matt at Mister Transmission who could get me in the next week if I wanted, one sigh of relief as I’ve heard good reviews. I phoned Matt got an appointment set up and dropped my car off. Matt and his staff looked at my car and gave me a quote and said he could get it done the next day. I gave the go ahead and they completed the work, he pointed out some issues he found while it was on the hoist which was appreciated. My car is fixed, my transmission was saved and the communication was amazing during the process. Huge shoutout to Matt and his staff for relieving some of the stress that comes with hearing “transmission work”!

Happy with the outcome! Recently...
Corylapointe94
Happy with the outcome! Recently my GMC Sierra developed transmission problems. Engine light on dash confirmed a transmission temp sensor failure. It also had dreaded Chevy shutter at slow speeds. Other shops wanted to charge me just to diagnose the problem. Mr. Transmission did so at no cost! Matt was great. He explained my options and didn't pressure me into the $8000 rebuild. I decided to take a chance on the less expensive option. Changing the fluid, filter and replacing the temp sensor assembly. He told me that once they started if anything major shows up he would call and we could consider the next course of action. I got lucky for now. Everything went well. The truck is running much much better. Best part the total cost spent was a little less then quoted.
