Transmission repair · Salem, Oregon · since 2007
The exact cause first. The cost before any work.
A locally owned, family-run transmission shop on Amber St NE. Every job starts with a thorough examination, and you hear the process and the price before anything is taken apart.
You notice it first
Something has changed in how it drives.
- It slips, or the revs climb before it picks up.
- It shifts late, or hard.
- A whine, a clunk or a burning smell.
- A warning light, or fluid under the car.
Then it comes here
The source, found before anything is replaced.
Different faults can feel the same from the driver’s seat. The examination tells them apart, so you pay to fix what is actually wrong.

Reviews
In at nine, done by noon, at the price quoted.
“Juan got my car in at 9a the next day … and had it finished by noon! … Price they quoted me was exactly what I wanted/was expecting.”
“Finding a mechanic to work on transmissions is a real challenge, esp someone who is friendly, available and affordable and who stands behind their work. I'd definitely recommend Duramax.”
“They got me in for an appointment right away and had my repair & oil change done within 3 hours. They made sure to communicate all the details and costs with me prior.”
