I had a cracked tail housing in my automatic transmission. I brought it in on Wednesday afternoon and work was completed and I picked the vehicle on Thursday afternoon. I also had them do a oil change. I thought the price for the transmission work was reasonable but thought the oil change was a bit pricey. The staff was extremely friendly and I appreciated the fast turnaround on getting my vehicle back. I would recommend this company for any transmission work.

I had severe transmission leaks, I took it to Aamco to get a quote. The price was appropriate for what needed to get fixed. This location wasn t too busy so I was able to get an appt asap the next week. The techs did an awesome job, I was able to drive around leak-free. They finished my car before the estimated waiting time.Service: TransmissionService: Transmission

Luke and the technician in today were very professional, kind, honest, and knowledgeable! Great customer service, kept me updated on everything. I thought my transmission was fried and I had mentally accepted that the next stop for my car was the junk yard. However, they saved my car and found a fluid leak and were able to fix it for a very very reasonable price. They were super fast too and took me in last minute. Highly recommend!

I have brought my vehicle to this destination multiple times now because these guys are straight shooters and diagnose and take care of the problem with your vehicle in a very timely manner with professionalism and they don't try to squeeze every dime out of your pocket. My man Luke made sure to take care of me and kept me updated with everything that was going on and I strongly suggest this place for anybody who has any issues with their car. I rate these guys 10/10 I won't bring my car anywhere else

Luke was able to help me out with a stuck CV stub that I or Firestone could not remove. He knew exactly what I was having issues with on my wife's Venza and said they would definitely try to help me out with getting it fixed. His final shop time was right on the money and I was extremely happy with his help and his service!Service: TransmissionService: Transmission

Aamco in Lisle.. THE BEST!! Luke is a great representative! He is extremely personable and professional. He made sure I understood all the repairs that were going to take place. He made sure I understood everything that was completed and the car is running great! Thank you!

I mostly came here to get my car A/C fixed but they convinced me to fix other thing in my car. I brought my car to all sorts of places and no one was able to fix the issues I was having. They were the only ones who called the dealership and dived in deeper to get me a solution. They also told me all these other places installed after market parts in my car. (I had no idea) So far none of the 4 lights have come back on. A bit pricey but well worth the cost to get answers you need. They are very helpful and understanding. Best place I have gone to so far. I definitely will be back if I need something!Services: Engine repair, Transmission replacement, A/C installation & repair

Took a while to get my vehicle worked on, and service took longer than expected. However, the mechanics were courteous and understanding, and my clutch works better than it ever has. Accurate diagnosis and good work. Biggest frustration was lack of full communication on timeliness, but otherwise I would recommend.

After visiting multiple repair shops my car was diagnosed by 2 transmission places as having a cracked fly wheel. The only problem was cost and time in which they could do the repairs as long as a 2 week delay before starting with questionable date of return. Being on workers comp, and being a single mom of 4 kids with only 1 vehicle it was important to get the van fixed, at an affordable cost yet excellent work for the safety of my kids. So I drove from Yorkville to Lisle and spoke with Stanton. He was courteous, understanding and kind throughout the entire process and they did the exam for free that day. He helped answer all my questions and if he did not know the answer he was quick to find it. Once JJ the mechanic was able to diagnose the possible problems he came out and explained what they could be. Then they planed for 2 of the issues and quoted me cost. I did not have all the money for the repair but Dennis was able to explain my options and actually helped me get financed for half the cost and the other half I had. Had there of been a courtesy vehicle to use or a rental facility that they worked with that I could have rented from at a discounted rate this would have been completely seemless. But those were not options. So I planned a rental for the following day and they obtained the parts needed, told me of other issues and were able to keep it lower than the estimated quote. I had my car back within 24hrs. I would recommend this Aamco to anyone. JJ is a great mechanic, and even though they were from out of state Stanton and Dennis went above and beyond. Thank you guys for helping keep my family safe in a vehicle we desperately need to maintain.Services: Transmission, General repairs & maintenance, Auto engine diagnostic

I would recommend this place, they were very friendly and efficient. They even drove my husband and I home because it was raining when we dropped the car off. Once the parts came in they did the job fairly quickly and everything seems to running well. We had a transmission leak fixed and had to replace transmission hoses. The only negative thing I can say is the hose itself seemed to cost a lot more then I would think a hose should cost but it seems as everything is costing more lately.Service: Transmission

As I sit at a much better transmission shop, I found myself recalling the nightmare of AAMCO Lisle. This shop was horrible on all counts. I brought my vehicle in for what I believed to be a transmission issue. They claim to have wrong diagnosis and that I had internal parts broken that needed to be repaired through a complete transmission rebuild for over $4000. Stock, I authorized the repair.Not even six hours after having picked up the vehicle, I had the exact same catastrophic failure in an intersection leaving me stranded. The vehicle was returned and I was advise that it would require another internal repair up to $1200. I instructed them not to touch the vehicle and had it picked up by another shop. That shop advised that it did not appear that the case was ever even opened on the transmission. The issue, which should have been identified by any trained mechanic immediately, was a drive shaft problem, not a transmission problem. It was a $250 repair.If getting screwed on a repair that was never needed nor completed was not bad enough, my jeep was vandalized while in their parking lot. They sent me to an auto body shop across the street for the repair and their work was equally shoddy.If there wasn t a single remaining transmission mechanic in the world besides this place, I would still not advise anybody to bring their vehicle there.Service: Transmission

Great service and professional! Front desk was polite and very helpful also great with communicating updates. I only wanted a transmission drain and filter replacement and they did exactly that. Upfront and honest about the pricing as well. Will definitely go back for future services.Service: TransmissionService: Transmission

Brought my leased company car in for a transmission issue. It took them a good week to figure out it was not repairable, but once that was confirmed, they were able to coordinate with the lease company to get approval and a new transmission, so they could get the job done. Biggest delay was getting the new transmission but that was not their fault.Service: Transmission

I ve been a customer of AAMCO of Lisle for years. They ve helped with a variety of services including replacing my AC compressor, replacing my condenser, replacing spark plugs and performing oil changes. Most recently I had my vehicle in to check an engine light and to ultimately replace an O2 sensor. I ve priced shopped in the past and found them to always be more than competitive. I ve really grown to trust their repairman JJ. He takes time to talk through the issue and show you exactly what is going on. They ve actually surprised me a couple times with a lower final bill than was originally quoted. They ve been kind enough to drop me off at work while they worked on the car for the afternoon. When you find people who are honest, fair and go out of their way for their customers you stick with them. I highly recommend this shop!Services: Exhaust, Steering & suspension repair, General repairs & maintenance, Auto engine diagnostic, Oil change

The staff were very welcoming, Nile was a great receptionist and made sure I was comfortable. He let me know what was going on every step of the way. This was my first experience with them and I would recommend it to anyone, I had my brake light fixed.

As I was driving my check engine light appeared, at that time AAMCO was the only place in sight. I had no intention of stopping, I've always known AAMCO to be a Transmission repair shop, but I did. My experience at this location was beyond my expectations, and the quality of service provided was amazing. I value customer service, and once I walked through the door I was very impressed, the service Manager Nile took me right in with no problem. They checked my service engine light and performed a courtesy check that saved me a ton of money and from experiencing more unexpected repairs. Thanks to Mr. Nile and his team for a job well done!

Excellent service! My van broke down and I had it towed to this place. They got me in right away, the repair was done in less than an hour, and cost me less than what I was quoted. My old mechanic moved out of state, and these guys are an awesome replacement. Definitely going here from now on.Services: Electrical repair, General repairs & maintenanceServices: Electrical repair, General repairs & maintenance

I am extremely happy with the service done on my vehicle and grateful I found this place. David was very helpful and went above and beyond to get my car fixed. Sent me a tow truck and even sent me a Lyft so that I can pick up my car once it was repaired. I highly recommended this place. I will absolutely come back to them for any repairs on my car.Service: Steering & suspension repair

When faced with the decision of whether to fix the transmission in my car or just get a new car, I visited the Aamco Transmissions on Ogden in Lisle where I learned that they could get me a factory refurbished transmission with a 3-year warranty. I received the professional opinions and advice I was seeking. It was a major decision but one I was confident in after my consultation. With the supply chain interrupted due to Covid, I was nervous as to when the part would arrive; but even with the long Thanksgiving weekend, my car was in and out of the shop within 5 days. I really wasn't ready to part with my little convertible! I couldn't be happier! I would highly recommend this Aamco repair shop.Service: Transmission

I came into AAMCO looking for a new alternator, oil change, and alignment. The people at AAMCO did a fantastic job. Nile, the general manager was extremely friendly and helpful. I came in around 9am and had everything ready to go by 3pm.Thanks for the great service; I'll definitely be back for future services.

I've gone to AAMCO in Lisle for my oil changes numerous times and they have always done an excellent job. The staff is very courteous, and they perform the oil change quickly and I've never encountered a problem with the service. Their price for the oil change is very reasonable, much lower than what the car dealership charges and it is easy to get an appointment which will work with my schedule. They've even modernized the customer waiting room, providing TV and reading materials to help pass the time while I wait. Although I have not had any major work done on my car, I definately would recommend AAMCO in Lisle for your next oil change!

AAMCO was great to work with from start to finish. Kolt was professional and polite and walked us through the issues they found and even helped us complete and get us approved for financing needed to pay for the repairs. I would definitely recommend and take my car back here for any future repairs needed.

I had a really embarrassing experience where I wanted to top off my truck with oil but mix up the oil container and the coolant container and long story short although they were booked for the week they got my oil change done the next day.Service: Oil changeService: Oil change

Great customer service and communication along with friendly shop personnel and high quality work. Definitely best trans shop I have dealt with in my time. Nile at the front desk was the friendliest and most helpful person I have interacted with in a long time. He made the experience truly impeccable.

Nice people BUT they do not have a Transmission Builder. I brought my car in with my Engine Light giving me a Transmission Valve Body Component Slipping code. After 2 days they told me they could not find the issue and literally shrugged me away.

I took my car in for an oil change. $42 later, that's all I got. No fluid top offs, no tire inflation checks, nothing. I now say I used to take my car here. I have had other service done here in the past, Brakes, tie rods to name a couple, but now that they are a corporate store their prices have more than doubled. They do good work, but the service and front desk have totally dropped.
