Took my car to mineke for oil change, done. Then come and say, I need transmission service.

15 minutes later, say done. Thought it was strange its done that fast. Manager assured me several mechanics on duty could get done faster. When done my car was running rough, went back in and complained.

3 different guys cane outside, checked the fluids, moved wires around, they have a mechanic pull it up to bay, he checks under hood, revs it up, says it running like off show room floor. Seemed to be ok at that point. I get in, drive home, decide to check fluids myself. Tranny fluid dirty, still smells burnt.

Hmmmm. Call em up, tell me to bring it back, I do. manager goes and hides, I can hear him loudly on other guy who told me I needed the service. Guy comes out tells me a FLUSH does not clean the tranny.

just changed 90% of the fluid. Thats not what I was told i was getting, I was told Trans. service that means filter, gasket, new fluid. told me to go buy filter and they'll put it on.

No way! what a rip off.

I would trust them to do anything ever again. Period!!!!!!

No Thanks want nothing to do with your services. Poorly trained som called mechanics and not to mention poor quality fluids.

I will tell you that you are 100% right. for this job would be a 2.5hr job for a flush is design to remove all the old dirty fluid replacing it with new fresh red fluid, for it seem to me they do not know how to use the machine properly to complete the job as I hear these stories all the time
