Automatic Man

I’ve had my Audi for a good while now and was not ready to part with it when it the gearbox started playing up. I spoke to Mike on the phone and he arranged collection of my car for a diagnostic test which I was not charged for. He was able then to give me quote for the repair which they carried out much to my delight. I would certainly recommend Automatic Man to anybody with a gearbox issue.

It’s good to have my Peugeot 307CC back on the road. My gearbox works very good!
I appreciate the quality work that you guys provide but also at a fair price.
The garage did a fantastic job.
High-quality service. Very professional. The best in this area. Mike is the men that you can trust.
Thank you Mike.

I have Mercedes Benz c300dh 2015 and one beautiful day I saw an error on the dashboard "exclamation mark with battery" at the beginning I thought it was a problem with the battery but after diagnostic in Mercedes 800£ :) it turned out that it was a gearbox 13k£ new or regenerated 6k£ or 7k £ repair by Mercedes, I started looking for an alternative, maybe a second hand gearbox for a replacement, what turned out to be impossible to code the used gearbox under my car?! So I started looking, up to 50 miles, for a mechanic to repair my gearbox, I called many specialists in Doncaster, Sheffield, Leeds, Liverpool unfortunately no one could do it or they didn't want a hybrid Mercedes 😆 ?! specialists…. I thought that the search area needed to be increased and I came across Mike from London who, after a telephone conversation, immediately stated that he knew the problem and would fix it, great! i put car on tow truck and sent stright to Mike, which turned out to be a few days and the car was ready for pickup, so honestly i can high recommend Mike 100% know what he doing thanks for save me my money and time !!!

Without any sign, the gearbox in my Chevrolet Captiva failed to function and I used to do the service for my car at the same dealer and they never advised me to change the gearbox oil until it stopped completely.
I asked few engineers but no one was honest or knows what’s he can do until I found through the internet a local garage called:” Automatic Man @ Acton W3 7 SG
I called to enquire about the procedure and a nice lady gave me all the informations, so I brought my car there at evening time and I dropped the car keys in the letterbox.
In the morning I called to make sure that everything ok, the Engineer Mike replied by don’t worry the car it will be ready within 5 days.
After 5 days my car was ready and everything worked perfect.
So from my experience, this garage is highly recommended with confidence as they are very professional, respect the time and provide very good quality of work.
Thanks everyone @ Automatic Man 👍👍

My vehicle had a grinding and shaking sensation while changing through the gears.
Although worried about how much it was going to cost I knew it needed proper care and attention. After speaking to Mike and his team my mind was put at ease. The cost of repairs was a lot less than I thought it would be and now my vehicle operates more smoothly when changing from gear to gear. Mike and his team were very professional from start to finish , and I would definitely use them again.

I received a fantastic experience from Automaticman when my Mercedes C220 gearbox became problematic. My vehicle was recovered by automatic man and shortly after received a call with a diagnosis. My Mercedes was repaired by Mike who was friendly and kept me informed throughout the process. I would recommend this business and would use again.

On the advice from a female friend I took my car to automatic man, as I have taken my car to other garages in the past & been ripped off. My gear box had started to make funny noises & the car wasn't running properly, I had already taken it to another garage who had quoted me an astronomical figure, saying that it needed this, that & the other doing, but I didn't trust them & said that I was taking it elsewhere for a second quote. I then went to automatic man & Mike explained to me exactly what the problem was (in a language I could understand lol) & it turned out that I actually only needed half the work doing that I had previously been quoted for & also for a fraction of the price, happy days. My car now runs like a dream, thanks for a 5* service at a bargain price. I would highly recommend this company to anybody needing work done

Courteous craftsmen.
Automatic Man rebuilt the auto box on my Mercedes E270 W211 estate last year. It has run beautifully since until the gear oil pump failed unexpectedly last week. Although this was not part of the original rebuild, Mike took the view the pump should be included in his 1 year warranty so made the repair immediately free of charge. It is rare to get such honorable service and I am very grateful

After visiting so many places which seemed to be endless trying to get my Mitsubishi Pajero fixed. I was disappointed that I could not find a place which could repair the vehicle, they all seemed to very reluctant to do anything, due to the complexity and other problems involved. Anyway after searching the internet, I landed here, and I am glad to say what an excellent choice I made, they did not refuse me and fixed the problem. They did not shy off or make any excuses why they could not fix or so forth, all-in-all a superb workshop who really know what they are doing and are passionate about their work.

After researching some garages i found Automatic Man to be very competitive. Had my Ford towed there and Mike done the job in the time stated, and reasonably priced. Excellent friendly service, would recommend.

I was having problems with the auto gearbox in my car for sometime and didn't know where to take. Being a woman I always feel that garages take advantage of my lack of knowledge. I came across this garage online and the works and services they provided were exceptional. I felt completely comfortable with the garage and felt I was not being taken for a ride at all. The car feels like new even if it is 10 years old. I am a very happy customer thank you!!

Cannot rate repair as diagnostics revealed that it would be as expensive as cost of my poor old Honda, but can rate the service. Mike was very polite and kind on the phone, available to help as for all it is urgent when car breaks down. And they really do the diagnostics for free, unlike plenty other dodgy garages (I paid in another place for diagnostics which was wrong!). They are real specialist for gearboxes.

Mike is a joy to deal with - a true automotive craftsman - he fixed (with Brendan’s help) the sick gearbox on my e38 BMW and in a matter of days and a not unreasonable amount of money later she’s as good as new. I can’t recommend Automatic Man highly enough - it’s sometimes tough to find genuine and talented and trustworthy people in the motor trade - but Mike is a rare gem.

Highly recommend this garage, very pleased! Very friendly staff. Fixed my car at a fantastic price! Will defiantly use these guys again if I ever have another gearbox issue.

Being a new driver I was unsure what to expect from an independent garage. From the initial enquiry to the works and leaving the garage Mike was fantastic. Mike was very transparent with what needed to be done and the costing and I will 100% be returning. ☆☆☆☆☆

Top specialist Mike is better at his specialty than my regular garage is at what they do; and they're good, believe me. He is...

Professional
Courteous
Reasonably priced
Amicable

Well done that man. ******

Mick and his team sorted out my rare Audi A6 2.7 twin turbo Quattro with pure knowledge and professionalism. It was hard work but they sorted it. Would highly recommend this company to ANYONE with automatic gearbox issues whether your driving a high end sports or exotic vehicle. Thanks lads!!

I could not find fault with automatic man services. I have had a conversion from manual to automatic last week. I did not realise this was actually possible, I left the car with Mike for just under a week. Since getting her back I have done around 400 miles this week and it has been faultless. Mike knew his stuff.

Originally, it had an issue with going into 4th and 5th. It did not go in. It was only in conversation I mentioned I prefer autos and wish I bought an automatic car instead when mike said he could repair the manual box or fit a reconditioned automatic gearbox in the car.

It was more expensive but I have put a lot of money into her so decided to bit the bullet and get her converted. One very please customer.

I have a Mercedes A class that had a gearbox problem. I took it to a main dealer that quoted me more than my cars value. If I hadn't found Automatic Man on the internet I would have had to scrap my car. They reconditioned my gearbox at a fraction of the price. Thanks to Mike and his staff.

I recently took my car in for a service at Automatic Man. They were all really honest and down to earth people! They did the job well and without a hitch. My car is back to how it used to run, if not better! Thanks Automatic Man!
