This rating is based on customer reviews, inventory size, pricing, and service quality
Warner Transmission in Seattle Hill, WA scores about 97/100, with reviews overwhelmingly positive and just one clear outlier. Themes: expert diagnostics, fixing rather than replacing, fair pricing (often below other quotes), and fast turnaround from same-day to a few days. Customers highlight honest, friendly service and help even in road‑trip emergencies. Minor knocks: they’re busy and communication may require follow‑ups. This is a repair shop, not a parts yard; reviews don’t cover inventory variety, yard organization, or ease of finding parts.
Lance graciously agreed to work on my 25 year old 2000 Isuzu VehiCROSS for a leaking transmission shaft seal. (Many mechanics refuse to work on such old cars.) He fixed the slow seal leak, changed the differential and transmission fluids and filter, and did it all at a more than fair price. He is persistent and I’m grateful for his help with such an old vehicle. Thank you, Lance! ?
Very friendly and fast service! I took my Jaguar transmission to them for inspection, having no idea of it's internal condition. Lance was quick to say everything looked good, replaced the seals and turned it around in just a couple of days. Very reasonable price.
I'll bring my next transmission to them for sure!
We own an auto shop that doesn't do internal transmission work. This place is our go to for anything transmission related that we can't handle. I can not recommend these guys enough. They are always very knowledgeable, reasonably priced and prompt. Thank you Lance and crew!!!
Just occured to me I'd never left a review. Last summer we were on a road trip, on a pretty tight schedule when our transmission blew. For context, we're from Vancouver and were going to Idaho and then Alberta.
We had the minivan towed there the next AM, briefly explained our situation. These guys went way out of their way to help us, calling up every shop in town to get parts, they stayed after hours to get us back on the road. Lance even drove us down the street so we could get food.
While they were hustling as hard as they could to fix it, they also took the time and effort to ensure everything was done perfectly.
We also were charged a lot less than a franchise shop would have charged us, and our transmission runs better than it did before.
Lance and his team saved our road trip and restored a lot of faith in humanity for us too.
My torque converter was no longer working as intended on my newer model pickup truck. Lance got me in and diagnosed the problem. They got the part replaced and the truck is up and running good as new, significantly less expensive than the first place I went to. I would recommend to my family and friends.
Lance and the staff are amazing! When my crown vic had transmission problems he actually fixed it. Not replaced. Fixed. Helped me troubleshoot it and hunt down the actual issue. 10 out of 10 for Lance and his crew. T they're the only ones I will take my cars to for any transmission issues
This man Kurt has helped me with several cars over the years, always fair priced, timely service, and friendly. Old fashioned business done here! The right way too be treated when getting your car fixed. I have gotten my transmission totally rebuilt in the same day. Nobody does a better job.
The Guy knows his stuff and will cut you a good deal if he likes you. A major national chain quoted me $4,500-6,500 *before* tax to rebuild a transmission that he fixed for $385 WITH tax. And he did it in 3 days. He even found a complete rebuild and quoted about four grand to put it in.
I have no problem to give this business 5 stars.. lance worked on my transmission for a Ford festiva and he did an excellant job.. I have driven over 10 000 miles and no problems
. I went back to ask about another transmission and he is very reasonable for price, time and excellant guarantees
Our van broke down, and Lance was very helpful and knowledgeable in the matter. He got our van fixed, and we paid far less than what other mechanics had quoted us. Would definitely take future issues to them!
LANCE GOES OVER THE TOP TO PLEASE HIS CUSTOMERS...FARE AND STRAIGHT FORWARD DEAL WITH THE BEST WARRANTY IN THE STATE.... his work speaks for itself he don't need a warranty when you got Lance Warner doing your transmission.......
My truck was stuck in second gear. They put my truck on the scanner. And told me it could be an ignition switch. I replaced it and low and behold good to go.. Thank you guys very much.
