Top notch communication and friendliness. Only reason for not giving the extra star, we’ve only had the car back 1-2 days. But I’m sure the work was good.

I spent a few weeks researching shops. I ended up working with Walter and Oscar on a cross-country purchase. GT performed a detailed pre-purchase inspection of a 22 year old vehicle that came back with comprehensive notes and details and pics. The work from GT ultimately fueled my decision to make a purchase. Very knowledgeable shop - everyone I spoke to clearly knows cars. Above all, the feedback and communication I received was above and beyond what I am used to, maybe it's time to move closer to this shop

I recently had the 12V auxiliary battery replaced on my Mercedes-Benz GLC 350e at GT. The experience was excellent from start to finish.GT began with a diagnostic battery test to confirm replacement was necessary, rather than proceeding on assumption. The initial quote was transparent, with no additional or hidden charges — the final invoice matched the estimate exactly.After installation, the technicians performed a post-service vehicle check. They noted a few prior low-voltage warnings in the system and advised these should clear following the new battery installation, which they did.Walter provided the service and was both highly professional and courteous throughout. I would recommend GT for hybrid electrical work based on the thoroughness, pricing transparency, and customer care demonstrated.

Spoke with Carlos about repairing a leaking main seal on our 2018 Mercedes Benz S560. He was very accommodating and they did an excellent job on the vehicle for less than half the price of the local dealership. The job took two days and I would recommend them for future work.

Common Problems With Porsche Transmissions

Porsche transmissions can experience a variety of issues, including shifting problems, slipping gears, noise from the gearbox, leaking fluids, and more.

The first step in understanding why your transmission isn't functioning properly is to identify which problem you're dealing with. It's also important to check the fluid levels periodically; if they are low or contaminated then this could be causing your transmission issues as well.

Process For Performing Diagnostic Service

When you bring your car in for diagnostic service, a technician will use specialized tools and equipment to analyze your vehicle’s systems and pinpoint any potential issues with your transmission.

This process typically includes running tests on the engine control unit (ECU) as well as checking fluid levels and inspecting other components such as sensors or wiring harnesses for wear and tear.

Based on their findings, the technician may recommend additional diagnostic testing or repairs that need to be performed in order to restore your car’s performance.

Common Repair Solutions

Depending on what type of issue is identified by diagnostic testing, there are various repair solutions that can be implemented in order to get your car back to optimal performance. Common repairs include replacing worn out parts like gaskets or seals; repairing damaged wiring harnesses; replacing worn out bearings; flushing out old fluid; adding new fluid; installing aftermarket upgrades such as shift kits; adjusting valve body settings; or replacing internal components like clutches or gear sets entirely.

Maintaining the transmission is an essential part of keeping your car running smoothly over time. If you notice any signs that suggest something may be wrong with your transmission system—such as shifting problems or noises coming from the gearbox—it's important to have a technician perform diagnostic tests in order to identify potential issues before they become more serious (and expensive) problems down the road.
