Olathe Transmission Service

Olathe Transmission replaced the transmission valve body in my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The part was in short supply following a united auto worker strike and the pandemic, but this shop was able to get the part in the same amount of time as the dealership (more than a month) for half the price, along with their added expertise in installation and reprogramming. So, I had the car towed from the dealership to Olathe Transmission. They took great care and had the car fixed in 2 days as promised after the part finally arrived.

Getting a transmission rebuilt is never fun, but it was done at the price quoted and done earlier than promised. It has been about a month and everything seems to work fine.

Great price, and I got my jeep back within a week! Great interaction with the person I talked to! Recommend to anyone who needs transmission help!

Bright my car in, they looked at it and gave it to me straight that it wasn't worth fixing and to instead drive it until a total failure happened. I really appreciated the honesty and how quickly they were able to get me in.

Paul is one of the smartest people I know when it comes transmission he has taught me everything I know I worked with Paul and DON in the 1st shop late 70 early 80..they will treat you right!! I love you guys!!

My car was experiencing transmission issues and the check engine light was on. I took my car to a different transmission shop and they told me I needed a new transmission, which would cost more than the car is worth.

I took my car to Olathe Transmission Service to get a second opinion and they were able to fix my transmission rather than replace it. They got me back on the road by doing a repair the other shop would not even attempt.

I really appreciate the quality work and the level of service this shop offers. If I run into any transmission issues in the future I will only bring my vehicles to Olathe Transmission Service.

Service Performed: 2006 Infiniti M35x | Repaired the front brake solenoid circuit inside the throttle body.

Highly recommend these guys! Took my Ram 2500 cummins here for a common problem with the 68rfe trans. 5th and 6th gears going out. Brent had me diagnosed and parts ordered within a few days. Went with a stage 2 HD trans rebuild. Put 10k miles on the trans so far and it’s still shifting great, no leaks, no issues. Once he had the parts the truck was done within 2 days. Great turn around and great customer service!

They scheduled me to drop off my car first thing in the morning and said that I should have an answer later that day. At about 1pm, I called just to check in and was told that they had gotten to my car and would call me back soon. The call came a little bit later, and he gave me great news. He had checked, cleaned, and replaced a dirty sensor, and he thought that was all that was wrong because that was the only error message that came back to him. He told me to come pick it up and to drive around and let him know if it was driving better. I am thrilled to say that is. I would definitely recommend Olathe Transmission. Just give them a call and set up an appointment to drop off your vehicle.

AMAZING work and service at (Olathe Transmission Service). I got a Subaru STI that needed a new clutch and I went ahead and upgraded the whole kit (ACT kit- pressure plate/throwout bearing/light weight flywheel). Jason, Paul and the guys at the shop did an incredible job of removing/installing it. They even flush my old transmission and differential fluid out and replace with new oil I brought in free of charge.
The price for the new clutch install was very reasonable. Jason told me that if I drop my car off early Monday morning they would finish it up the very next day (Tuesday). I did exactly that and he kept his words, he called me (1:30pm-Tuesday afternoon) and said the car was done and I can pick it up anytime. Jason and his team are incredibly good, honest and reliable. Everything exceeded my expectations!!! Thank you very much guys for your professionalism and the great work, you got me as a customer for life. I definitely recommend everyone the expertise of Jason & everyone at (Olathe Transmission Service), your car will be in great hands.

Had the best experience with Olathe Transmission! Jason got me in quickly and was completely honest with what he needed to do to get my car back up and running. The dealership told me I needed to replace the whole transmission at a whooping $5700, turns out I only needed to replace part of the transmission for just $1500. Highly recommended them for any of your transmission needs.

Happy Wednesday, kids!
I wanted to post a testimonial for Olathe Transmission, more specifically, Jason. Not only did he pull me out of a two week backup in their work flow, since I had a relatively minor issue, but I got out the next day! That not only saved me a $375 rental, given holiday rates, but let me finish out today, on campus, with my own car!
Let me tell you WHY this is my place. Yes, they are a “transmission shop” but they do everything else, mechanical, as well.
My first introduction to them, was when I had a KNOWN transmission problem with Chelle ‘s Cadillac SRX. I took it to Jason, TELLING HIM I knew it was the transmission. I got two estimates from him; one, the cost of NEW, the other for a rebuild. I wanted “worst case” on both so I’d know how to plan.
Jason called me back, the next day, telling me I did NOT need a transmission. My issue was a faulty, externally mounted part that had failed.
Total damage?
$150.00, parts and labor.
Now, the point of this? If you take your car to a TRANSMISSION shop, TELLING THEM you already know you need a TRANSMISSION, they have full license to install a TRANSMISSION. With those being the base line understandings, there’s nothing in the world that screams “honestly” like that shop calling you back, to tell you you’re WRONG, and what you really need is a simple, external part. Your bill isn’t going to be $2,800….but $150! Since that day, I’d never take any mechanical problem ANY WHERE ELSE!
If you’re any where in the KC metro area, even though they are in Olathe, THIS place is worth the tow bill to get it there! I simply can’t say enough good about them!
Thank you, once again, Jason. You’re one in a million!

Jason and the Team at Olathe Transmission are top notch!
I can always count on them for honest recommendations and fair pricing.

Kate is always pleasant to deal with when calling to inquire about estimates and scheduling.

If you are looking for an honest, dependable, and fair priced transmission shop, this is the place!

They assisted with a multiple option approach at repairing the transmission. Didn't believe the entire transmission needed rebuilt and suggested repairing the torque converter, however they were up front and communicated additional steps and fees(along with credits from current repair payment) if this doesn't solve my vehicles issues. Overall it was a great experience.

If you are looking for an honest shop who does awesome work, don't look any further. I use Olathe Transmission for both of my cars. Don't let the name "Olathe Transmission" fool you. While they specialize in rebuilding or installing new transmissions, they are full service auto mechanic!
I don't ever take the time to review any business, but I felt it was warranted. A special shout out to Jason, he is great to work with. There is another guy who answers the phone sometimes (don't know his name).
who is pleasant to work with as well

I plan on bringing in my Yukon Denali Friday for more work . I highly recommend Olathe Transmission to anyone and will continue to refer them to friends who need car repairs. I am so thankful someone referred them to me over 2 years ago. Moving from out of state, it is hard to find honest mechanics.

I just had a transmission installed with this shop. I have nothing but positives just like everyone else. After my transmission was installed my engine light came back on. Jason ran a diagnostic and it had nothing to do with the work just completed. I think they had me back in my car in 3 days. I had a funny intereact with a guy and I asked if Jason was the owner because I wanted to tell Jason thanks for being helpful. The guy I was talking with identified himself as the owner and he was pretty nice as well. I'd recommend these guys.

Took my truck in because I noticed I had a small leak coming from my transmission. Jason and his team got me in right away, diagnosed the issue, didn't try to sell me something I didn't need, and got me back on the road in a timely manner. I will definitely be going to them with any future vehicle needs, and would highly recommend to others.

I have a 20 year old car that's not made anymore. They machined the right piece for me! :) Excellent service, HONEST, great prices! Nice dog there, too. :) That's always a plus! Very helpful folks. Highly recommended!

Jason at Olathe Transmission is a great mechanic and all of the team are awesome people, took my outlander in because it had some white smoke from the exhaust thought it was a head gasket but after he drove it and did a compression test. I found out it was not a head gasket and also I drove it home it does not smoke anymore or have any hesitation. Thank you to Jason and everyone there my first time going their and I will be going their from now on they are honest and fair.

I own my own business and we have a 2015 Ford F-350 Superduty for hauling and removing debris. The transmission fluid temperature gauge went very high with no warning. I was in the middle of a job and needed to verify if the temperature was valid or an indicator issue. After calling several transmission repair shops to no avail, this shop told me that they could do a quick check on it. I stopped in a few minutes later and the boss hooked up his computer real quick and ran a diagnostic (the hookup fee at a dealership alone is $125) He then took a laser pyrometer (fancy thermostat) and checked all the temperatures locally for the transmission. It was clearly an indicator issue, and nothing was wrong with the transmission. He shook my hand and told me I had nothing to worry about. I offered to pay for the services and he told me not to worry, and added that I looked stressed out enough. I cannot possibly say enough good about the employees from that day or the business itself. From one small business to another, many thanks and God Bless.

I brought my 2011 Toyota Highlander in for what I thought was going to be bearing replacements and an o2 sensor replacement. Instead Jason informed me my bearings were just fine and remedied the problem with smaller fixes, saving me quite a repair bill. He could've replaced them and the smaller repair, charged me for the service and I would've never known different. His honesty and integrity was extremely appreciated. He even gave me a better understanding what to watch for should the second o2 sensor go out and what to look for.

Read the other reviews and you'll see the same thing- He and his team work by the Golden Rule. And that is why I'll be a customer for life.
