I came to these guys when my car refused to switch to the "Parking" gear. Bummer! No "Parking" meant that I could drive, but could not get the key out of ignition, and could only park on "Neutral". Two mechanics had told me(without taking things apart) that my transmission probably needs to be replaced and we are talking over $5,000.
Well, these guys worked on it for maybe 40 minutes and found that my old battery leaked and corroded some cable that connects transmission with Parking (I may get the details wrong). At first, they were going to order a new cable. Instead, they ended up just cleaning the old cable, and voila! It worked! They charged me for a fraction of an hour, and no parts - when they knew I was prepared to pay thousands!!
My mechanic friend could not believe it; he said such an honest mechanic is more of an exception.
