We thought our transmission had gone out and were going to have to pay thousands of dollars to get it fixed. Luckily KBL was able to find and fix the issue and it only cost a few hundred dollars. THANK YOU KBL!!!

Recently I purchased an older vehicle that is new too me. After driving the vehicle for a period of time I was sure it had a transmission problem. I searched for local transmission shops and positive reviews brought me to KBL Transmissions in Huntington Beach. I made an appointment and dropped off my vehicle, expecting to hear some bad news, but I was planning of having spending the money to have it repaired. KBL spent some time with the vehicle and called me not too long after I dropped it off. They found no problems with the transmission or the clutch, but they did find a very slow leak I was not aware of between the transmission and transfer case, that in their opinion did not need to be addressed at this time. KBL gave me a good professional assessment of the vehicle, and did not charge me for their time. Don Nickol, and the lady at the front desk (I'm sorry I can't remember her name) were very helpful, friendly and professional. They did not ask me to write a review, which is so unusual and refreshing. After my very positive experience with KBL, I have recommended them to a couple people already, and for any future transmission problems I will go directly to them.

Past post has been removed after an explanation was given by Don, nothing negative to say about KBL and would definitely recommend them to anyone who needs transmission work done

I took my car to KBL because he did a good job on my son's car. After he rebuilt the transmission in my car it seemed to be working fine. Unfortunately I got sick about that time and couldn't drive for a few months so I didn't know that the speedometer was not working. I got under the car and found the speedometer cable disconnected and tied to the frame. I took it back and he replaced the cable which he said was too short. "He charged me for the cable which I think should have found when he rebuilt the transmission " I took the car home and a couple of weeks later I found it was leaking and the shift lever was moving out of PARK with very little movement on my part. Not wanting to to drive it I took it to a shop closer to my house. This mechanic adjusted the shift lever which he said was not tightened properly. He also showed me three fittings that were leaking along with the rear seal that goes to the driveshaft. He said I should take it back to the original mechanic and have him fix it but I don't think I can trust him anymore.

Excellent and honest service If the problem is what it is there is no trying to sell the customer something else that is not needed

Our poor old Subaru had a transmission problem- KBL was so helpful, they gave us honest advice after assessing our car- and while we didn't end up having any service on our car we would use them and recommend them!

Don and Karen are wonderful to work with. Brought my Chevelle here to do a conversion from an automatic to a Tremec and Don did a masterful job. Transmission runs great and it was done quickly and professionally. KBL is the only transmission shop I'll recommend going forward.

This Pimmelkopf refused to work on my transmission because my car wasn't cool enough to be left in front of his shop. His words not mine.
