Though for sure I was looking at a replacement clutch on my 2001 Ford Ranger, but thankfully it was only a U Joint on the verge of falling off! Caught it just in time!. However, since receiving my truck after it was repaired the entire clutch just feels and works smoother. Was this a side effect of the U Joint replacement? I think there was some clutch adjustments made to improve the clutch operation not listed on the repair invoice. THAT is the kind of business you look for!!!! Awesomeness!!
The owner, Mitch, is very professional and helpful answering my questions and concerns. The employees are so friendly and the work is done with precision and trust. They will see you quickly and the price is very reasonable. I highly recommend them.
Great job transmission rebuild found water pump leaking great service
Very reliable and professional would recommend them and will return for all car repair
This last visit was to check my AC. We didnt repair it on this visit but will certainly go back to do it. I learned of Cottman while seeking transmission work about a year or two ago. They were about the 4th shop in the area from which I got estimates and information BUT they were the only ones that didnt try to take advantage of my dead transmission situation. Cottmam helped me structure the best solution for my car. They even answered my brothers questions from another state about the plan repair before we fixed it. Straight up answers, no surprises, honest and quality work! I cant say enough.
Ive had multiple things done like transmission service, differential service done here. Honest pricing and great service
The team at Cottman Transmission and Auto Care is great to work with and very honest and dependable. The team is very courteous and communicates all information well. They even helped me determine that the brake work I needed was covered under a recall notice at the dealership. I highly recommend.
The service provided was timely with prompt calls for updates. The price for the parts and labor was very good and competitive. We had synthetic oil change and break pads and axle swap.
Quality work, I trust these guys with my workhorse truck. Solid work, good estimates and diagnostics. The price is fair and a lot cheaper than the dealer. I also like how they take time to advice you on what can wait and what has to be repaired, options. They keep me on the road, check them out if you need an honest mechanic shop.
Had a good experience here. They were very communicative and honest. They couldn’t repeat the failure I was seeing at first, and called me to make sure of when the car was supposed to act up so they could see the issue. I appreciated this, as they could have easily not done that and I wouldn’t have known. I got the quote, and it was too much for how old my car is (that’s more of a factor of the car value, not their quote price), but they still gave me the 21 point diagnostic test for free, so I didn’t have to pay anything. Even though I didn’t have anything fixed this time, I would definitely go back in the future.
I thought I needed my brake rotors replaced but they looked around and found something was up near the engine. They were able to get it fixed in an hour and it was a lot cheaper than getting my rotors replaced so I feel that speaks on their honesty. My car doesn’t vibrate anymore when I have it stopped and they were able to get me in on that same day which was neato. I’ll likely go back to them for any other services and would recommend them to others.
Great experience, nice people, my friend bought a used fixer upper that needed transmission work. After the free inspection he gave us 2 prices, and was able to repair for the lesser cost. Amazing, considering most mechanics are 21st century attorneys and will take every dime they can. I definitely recommend the Aloha site off Baseline.
Great speed and care. Very happy they were recommend to me.
Delivered repair of clutch at the estimated price. Kept me informed of the repairs.
I recently went to get an oil change and while I was there, they told me they noticed steam coming out of the side of my radiator and that I should get it looked at asap.I reached out to a few different auto care shops to get information about the potential repair. One place I didnt hear back from, another place just emailed me a rough number without really showing interest in taking care of my car. I then received a call from Mitch at Cottman and he told me that he received my inquiry online but had a few questions to help get me the most accurate quote possible. After I gathered the necessary info, Mitch called me back to let me know what the quote was and how soon that he could get it done.I was very impressed with the professionalism of Mitch and his team and would highly recommend this place to anyone needing repairs done on their vehicles.
You know that fear of a lying mechanic thatll charge you more than you should be charged? The one thatll make up a problem that doesnt exist?You wont find a liar here. Theyll let you know exactly whats wrong with it and how much itll cost. 100% honesty.Theres a reason they have so many positive reviews. Theyre amazing at what they do. Ill be recommending them to everyone. Ill also be coming in to get my car worked on in the future.
Been very good with my old car and my new vehicles as well.
I talked to Kevin about a transmission problem Im having and he suggested some fixes, and gave me a reasonable quote to look at it. Ill certainly come back.
The service at Cottman was exceptional. I noticed some coolant buildup in some of my hosing and needed a new water pump. They got me on Monday morning and My car was finished on Monday afternoon, with update calls in between to make sure they only did the work I wanted them to. Quick. Easy. Fair.
I had transmission questions regarding a 1998 Honda. Cottman Transmission was very helpful in working with me to help decide what direction I needed to go. I will not hesitate to contact them again.
Had the rear bearing/axle replaced on my 99 Grand Cherokee. Had it there by 8am and got it back by 2! Excellent service and reasonably priced.
Cottman is mainly viewed as a transmission place, however, it is a great place to do other vehicle maintenance. I love the service and the communication from them. I have had oil changes, timing belt, wipers and brakes done this year. I love that its walking distance from the max in case I need to find my way home. Keep up the good work guys! Thanks!
I totally appreciate the honesty and excellent level of service. My car runs great, the price was responsible, and Cottman is now my trusted auto care provider. Thank you, Kevin and team!
I could give this place 5000 stars I would. But I think facts are more helpful than stars. I lost 2nd gear in my transmission after a few hours of them looking at it I had a price and timeline on when it would be fixed. They do not charge to look at the vehicle and the staff are so friendly. My complete transmission rebuild took only 4 days and it was cheaper than expected. I will never take my vehicles any other place but Cottman.
They diagnosed the problem and fixed it. Did not try to over sell. Extremely professional, honest and did it all in one day.
Great job you answered all my questions service was excellent very professional,
They were quick with my car, super sweet and did above and beyond for me. I will always go to them!
I had a pretty bad experience with the manager of this place about a year ago. Stay far away from this place.
Thank you, we are very happy with our car runs great. if we have any other problems, we will come back to you.
Quick, great service! I came in looking for an estimate and hoping to set an appointment for the next day. They made a recommendation to replace the rotors rather than machine them down and I later realized that it would save me in the long run. They also looked at a clunk I had going on in the front end for free along with providing an estimate for that. Lastly, they working with the guy next door with getting two used tires put on so I didnt have to wait around. I will be coming here for all of my mechanical needs!
Im a senior, so cost is a big deal to me. Kevin at Cottman was wonderful. I brought my car in for a Check Engine light on. He told me later that he couldnt find anything wrong but a loose gas cap, which was probably the cause, & it cost me nothing.Such honesty is appreciated! Ill always bring my car back to Cottman & I recommend them to other seniors.
The team at Cottman were very Professional and proficient.They listened, and got the job done right the first time and at a fair price!
Last week the transmission on my Ford 1995 E350 Diesel started making some significant scraping sounds. Not having much money, I took it to a couple shops for quotes. The lowest one I received was $900. I rolled into Cottman, ready for another big quote. After a test-drive, the mechanic said it sounded like loose bolts, and that he was hopeful he could fix it for a reasonable price. I decided to risk it. They opened it up, found some loose bolts, tightened everything down and sent me on my way for a gracious $175! I just drove across the state without a hitch. Thanks guys!
I chose Cottman to do an oil change and transmission diagnostic on my 1977 Chevy K10 due to their close proximity to my home and reviews. They quoted me approximately $40 for the oil change and $103 for the transmission diagnostic for a grand total of just about $143. My truck was shifting hard and late and I was concerned there was a large issue hence the diagnostic. I did know, however, that the transmission fluid had recently been flushed. Cottman did not try to gouge me and instead found that there was only a hole in a vacuum hose. They called me and said my issue had been resolved and my total bill was $86.. well under what I had been quoted and expected. They didnt try to talk me into any unneeded services. They have won over my business with their knowledge and honesty. Thank you Cottman!!
An amazing company who came in at half of what my dealer wanted to charge me for the same service
I have used them for several years now. By far the most honest, accommodating, and reasonable shop in the hillsboro beaverton area. I highly reccomend them for servicing your vehicles. The team is very professional and has a commitment to your satisfaction and your vehicles they work on. 5 Stars!
Nice work guys
Great place sofar, i came here for the first time no issues had my water pump replaced. Tbey will five you good options on different parts to save you 💰.
Cottman transmission is reasonable and fair. They do good work which makes us repeat customers, and not on the same car, but several cars. If they do not find an issue they dont try to make one up. I recently took a VW bug in assuming it had a coolant leak. They did not find one and there was no charge. The car had been my granddaughters and when I talked to her the night I brought the car back home she said there had been no problem with low coolant until she went to a popular local oil change place for a DEQ check.
Friendly. Fast. No BS!- - - -Was having transmission and check engine lights come on. Went into two other transmission specialty shops in Beaverton and they couldn’t really give me a clear indication of what was wrong or quote me on any costs.I came here and was consulted, without any obligation, and they suggested I drop my car off for the day so that they can figure out what’s wrong.I dropped my car off before work, in hopes that they would be able to diagnose my car before the end of the day. They gave me a call back quicker than I expected!Kevin was able to tell me what the possible issues may have been. He was really straight forward, and told me exactly what may have been wrong, and did not suggest any unnecessary BS fixes like some other shops do, and did not pressure or scare me into any fixes. He also gave me an honest quote, and was even pointed out other minor fixes (that I was already aware of) as a heads up!Great shop. Will be coming back here for any future car issues.- Dylen
After multiple bad experiences with Herzog Meier over the past 6 years, I was referred to Cottman Transmission by another loyal customer. Kevin helped us and was an excellent example of stellar customer service. They are trustworthy, honest, and knowledgeable. Ill definitely be trusting them to handle my auto care from now on.
Great serviceI took my NissanNX over here because I thought something was wrong with the transmission. I just wanted to fluid and filter taken care of. Before they did that they took a look at the transmission and it was fine. Instead they figured out it was just my spark cables. I still spent about was I expected to do the fluid. Definitely will come back again if I need to.
My truck is old and these guys help me keep it going. Their prices and quality help me keep ahead of the leaks!
Best service ever. Had some major issues with the transmission in my car and they took care of the issues. Friendly and very professional staff. Thanks guys!!
Great Service - Couldnt be happierI had my Jeeps transmission rebuilt there and the price was reasonable. The service was good and they were able to perform the work in a timely manner. I was happy but not otherwise impressed.Then, 14 months after they did the rebuild my Crankshaft Position Sensor was starting to fail due to heat. This is a common problem on my model Cherokee if an aftermarket CPS is used. When I called they said they would fix it for free, I only had to pay difference between aftermarket and Mopar OEM part. That is what I call service. I will continue to bring my cars here for as long as I live within 100 miles.They are honest and good people. I absolutely recommend them.
Excellent service, warranty, and they are looking out for your vehicle. The labor rates are reasonable and they are always willing to communicate and guarantee their work. Glad to find a shop I can trust to bring vehicles to besides the dealership. Thanks Cottman.
These are our guys! When I needed a new clutch for my car they were reasonably priced,honest and guaranteed their work. Kevin and Mitch Have been servicing both my vehicles here for the past 2 years and they never fail to meet our needs. Thanks guys, see you at our next oil change! Tacomamazda!
Mitch and Kevin are always amazing, I refer all my friends here. They always do the work quickly, and are reasonably priced. They are always upfront and honest about issues and cost.
I am not sure what the other reviewer was complaining about. Ive gone here for years because they dont push sales, and because they treat customers with respect. Coming here makes me feel like I know a guy... I have attempted to report the review because it appears to be made by a competitor, note that they have only ever reviewed THIS place, making it even more suspect...It may be that they confused the place for a different mechanic.
I only trust these guys to work on my truck! They are honest and dont try to over sell! Being a girl who knows cars its hard to find a place that doesnt think Im a dumb girl! Prices are very fair!
Mitch and Kevin were very detailed and my transmission was repaired and is now working smoothly again, thank you! I highly recommend Cottman Transmission.
Fast and friendly service at a reasonable price.
I had brakes and rear diff gears installed. When I went to use the emergency brake there was nothing the pedal goes to the floor. Avoid this place!
The team were absolutely professional, faster than I can believe and came in a little below estimate on a complete transmission rebuild. I would highly recommend them to everyone.
The people there are really friendly and I got taken care of right away I would definitely recommend them to everyone I know they did a good job on my car thank you guys
Friendly, professional an drew timely I will be returning. Thanks again Cottman. They went the extra mile.
Great service at a great price. I would definitely recommend these guys.
Great service from super friendly people. I have been twice now to have work done on my truck and they are my go to guys for any future truck repairs I might need! Keep up the good work guys!!!
I’d say that Kevin went above and beyond .
We needed a pre-purchase car inspection for a Toyota Sienna we were considering buying. I was able to make a same-day appointment which was exactly what we needed. The gentleman who helped us went over every detail of potential issues and what it would cost to fix them. He also took us out to the vehicle and showed us exactly what he was referring to.
I am so glad I found Cottmans of Beaverton, they do an excellent job, honest & trustworthy and their prices are less than their competition! Customer service is A +, I would highly recommend them, you wont regret it!
Got an appointment quickly, they did the work in an appropriate amount of time and no issues. Reasonably priced
Ive been here 5 times and received the best care from any auto repair shop Ive ever visited. Customer service is more than excellent. They bent over backwards to help me overcome several problems within my budget. They are not the fastest service. But if all I wanted was fast I could go to the places with terrible customer service and higher prices. No thanks, Ill stick withCottman.
Great experience. Leo was very helpful. They did the work quickly. I will return for future repair needs.
I brought my vehicle in because it was having problems shifting into gear. They replaced the slave cylinder which required taking out the transmission. When everything was put back into the car they discovered that there was a problem with sychrogears in the transmission. They were able to take apart the transmission and replace the gears as well as a bearing that needed replacing and a shifting fork. They did the work as soon as they parts had arrived at their location. Leo also did not charge me for labor for taking the transmission out the second time which saved me 500$. The car shifts like it was new and the repair came with a 12,000mile/1 year warranty on the repair. I am confident that their work will last and if it doesnt they will have it repaired. This repair was not cheap, however I feel it would have cost more at a different location. Getting the specific synchrogears that the transmission needed instead of the entire kit to replace them all and the bearing would have cost more than twice that of the repair. Leo found only the parts and not the kit saving lots of money for me. I am very happy with the service their repairs.
Cottman really puts Service in Service Center. What I originally thought was a transmission problem, was diagnosed as bad ignition coils. I was happy to find out that Cottman does a lot more than transmissions. But because the misfire only happened intermittently, it was a bear to troubleshoot and I had to bring the car in several times to catch it in the act. Once they shuttled me back home after I had to drop the car off without a ride. Cottman bent over backwards to find out what was going on, even buying a brand new instrument just to diagnose my problem. They were completely upfront, honest and down-to-earth. I dont think you can find a better car shop.
I, like everyone else HATE car trouble!But if you have car trouble, Cottmans is THE PLACE to go!!!!I had a complete engine replaced here a few years ago (after having another shop make a bigger mess of my van) and was 100% happy with everything about Cottmans. So glad my friend gave me this recommendation! Car trouble is sort of like death and taxes...things happen, right? So...a few days ago my van conked out/got a tow in Tuesday around 3pm. Kevin called me at 5pm to tell me I needed an alternator, battery and battery cable. It was all done and ready to go the next day before noon.Kevin and Mitch are awesome!
The most honest mechanics Ive ever met, go there for anything to do with my van
I recomend this place for your tramnsmision service. He gave honest transmision check to my car. My car has a jerking problem. He don’t find anything wrong insted he found the gearbox stiffed. He add more grase without any charge and the car running good. The price for transmision service is reasonable. For sure I’ll be back for my next service car. Thank you Kevin.
Great service, reasonable prices and most of all very trust worthy.
Cottman Transmission provides very user friendly services. When my wife dropped her car to there for repairing, they provided a ride sending my wife back to home. Their quotes are reasonable comparing to other autoshops, sticked to the cost/prices they promised/committed, and tried to save customers money by finding lower priced parts for used cars. It is a very trustable auto shop in our community.
Great service, friendly people.
These guys are great. Fast. Honest. Helpful.
I am so amazed by the helpfulness of the employees of cottman, especially Kevin and Becca. They helped me fix an issue from damerow ford that the dealership had supposedly fixed, but it had not been done. Kevin is trying to help me get reimbursed for the money that they owe me. He did not, and does not have to go out of his way,but he does! AND they used brand new parts, which I would much rather pay a little more to them for new parts, than to a hole in the wall shop that uses refurbished parts. Quality matters and Cottman has plenty of it! Definetly will be back (if need be) Id rather not have any more issues with my car, but if I do, I know where I will take it! Thank you Kevin! You rock!-your fav. person to talk to on the phone ;)
After taking my truck in for a free inspection, i was informed my transmission was broken and it would cost me 2900.00 to have it re-paired by cottman transmission. So i looked up a rebuild kit for my transmission under $200 bucks. plus the upgraded parts still came in under $400. I decided i could rebuild it myself, Which i do have access to any and i mean any tools or equipment i might need and or any knowledge. its not rocket science. so i returned to cottman to retrieve my truck. i asked to speak with the gentlemen that work on my truck, to simply find out if a rebuild kit would cover whats broken in my transmission. A employee by the name of Alex came out to discuss this with me. i spoke of my plans to rebuild and asked if a rebuild kit would cover all the parts i may need. I was never given an answer. he just told me there lots of small parts and i couldnt handle the rebuild. he then suggested that he could do it as a side job. so i said okay how much will you charge. the kid turns around and goes back in the shop then comes back with a new quote. hell only charge me 1500.00 plus 500.00 for parts that have to come from cottman, he has to use there shop and do it while hes on the clock... HMMMM. sounds like its the farthest thing from a side job. i said that 2000.00 was a bit out of my range. Alex then suggested i wait for my tax return and use that to fix my truck. I run my own company i dont get a return, i owe every dam year.. so the shop quoted me 2900.00, then they change there price to 2000.00 But the kid is doing it on the side. BS BS BSDo you ever feel like having a shop steal money from you? If you do, go to cottman. theres a new slogan for them. LOLHorrible experience i will never go back there again and i will let anybody know not to go there and what happened to me. overall rating i put at a NEGATIVE 5.Manager-- KevinEmployee-- Alex Get your act together Cottman
My car wouldnt start..I got it towed to Cottmans..Kevin worked with me on the phone before the car showed up and was happy to help me figure out what was going on....My distributor was bad and within 45 minutes of my car arriving at the shop the distributor had been pulled out and the new one put in and my car was on its way...i was in shock!! thank you cottmans...you guys are awesome...I will never go any where else..the customer service was amazing and ive never had such a pleasant experience in a car repair shop!!!!
Cottman gave us a much better price on repairs than another place we tried, and the service was excellent. Ill go there again in the future!
Fail to let you know they only work on certain car makes
Awesome people and great work will recommend
Great experience, very honest, speedy service.
Missed an appointment by short amount of time, wanted to schedule it a full week out.
Good service
Good clean service..
Amazing service as usual.
Friendly workers, fast too.
They fix my tramstions switch and my car works now
Expensive
