Great responsiveness. Always responded to my questions within minutes via text/phone. I called with a problem and he got me in the same day, diagnosed the problem, and was very flexible working with me about my vehicle availability for repairs. Fair price and fast service on my somewhat old, somewhat uncommon sports car that required a special parts order. I recommend Scott. I'm a satisfied customer.I had some cell phone problems as were talking, and I hung up on him multiple times. Ooops! Totally on my end. T-Mobile was dropping my calls. Totally on me. He totally understood and we just picked up where I dropped him. Frustrating, but he showed total patience, more than me. ;)

I've been taking my vehicles to Scott for almost a decade. Nobody I trust more to give me honest assessments of what needs done as well as provide quality work that lasts! Thanks Scott!

If you're looking for an honest and fair mechanic Scott is your guy! He saved me from a full transmission replacement that other shops were ready and eagerly going to charge me $5-6,000 for. Scott quickly assessed and replaced what ended up being a bad bearing and not the transmission. Thank you Scott! Going to be letting others know about you!Services: Auto engine diagnostic

For the same thing Dowdy's Automotive was going to charge me close to $1000 to fix, he charged me almost $400 less, the car runs great, he had it done quickly & when I asked him to throw on some new headlights & a couple other things it was no big issue. Would definitely recommend & will be returning for all my auto repair needs.

Took my 05 TJ to Scott so he could put in new gears in both front and rear end. It works amazing. The price was very fair and the time it took to get done was great also. Will for sure go back to him for more work on the Jeep.

Scott was very knowledgeable and honest about my repair. He was able to get me into his shop right away to take care of my problem. I had an intake manifold oil leak which Scott had the job done in a day. He also gave very honest recommendations on other issues he saw with my vehicle. His pricing is fair, and he guarantees his work. It was easy to work with Scott and I will definitely be sending my vehicles to him for future service.Service: Auto engine diagnostic

Was looking for an estimate on an automatic transmission issue. Scott responded quickly through the Yelp messaging system, but I didn't notice it for a half hour, so I didn't quickly respond. (some people have shit to do so they miss things sometimes). He wanted to have an over the phone consultation, so I responded to his request. I waited 20 minutes, but no call came through. My phone has an issue of randomly, on occasion, not notifying me of a call and it goes to voice mail. So I figured this may be the issue, so I rebooted my phone and sure enough, Scott had called and left a message. So I called him back and explained my phone issue and apologized. Either he was mad and couldn't get over it even with my apology or he is just obtuse with potential customers. I thought it was a consultation, meaning he was going to initiate communication by maybe asking me questions or saying something other than his name. No, after saying his name he sat there in silence making me feel like I had to read his mind. It was very awkward, so I started regurgitating the info that I sent in my Yelp message explaining the problem. I then paused for some rebuttal, but he remained silent, so I started talking again, hoping that I was giving him info that he wanted. Then I paused again to allow him to speak, but silence. So I ask if there was any questions or anything that he wanted to say. Finally he just asked when I could bring it in and I told him. It was very weird and uncomfortable. If he was mad at my response time, he needs to learn to control his emotions. If he is just a poor communicator, he needs to hire a receptionist to talk to people for him, in my opinion. Who knows, maybe he was just having a bad day, I don't know what his deal was, but it seemed very unprofessional to me. After thinking about it for a few minutes, I decided that he doesn't need my business if he is going to act dickish to me. Maybe he is a great and very skilled mechanic, but I don't think I want find out. I hope that it was just a fluke and he is usually better than that or a miss-perception on my part and you will have a far better experience than I did.

Scott does great work at a fair price. He came recommend by a coworker to do some work on my daughter's car. He took the time to explain to us the work to be done and showed us when completed. A trustworthy mechanic with integrity is a rare find and Scott has both.

I was originally referred to Perfection Drivetrain by a friend and I am thankful I was. Though it is never fun to have a vehicle needing repair, I have had two great experiences with Perfection Drivetrain and Auto Repair. In both instances, Scott was able to diagnose and resolve the issue. He was accurate and honest in his availability, the time needed for the repair, and the final cost. In both instances, the transmissions were expertly repaired. On the first repair, he also noticed an issue I had missed just by listening to the vehicle on a test drive. I was able to have the issue repaired preventing a future breakdown. I appreciate the service, honesty, and the expertise that I have received as my vehicles were repaired.Service: Transmission

Kind of out of the way. Took a chance and am glad I did. I have a transmission I trust. He had to do a complete rebuild and added a shift kit. It works better than before !

Scott is an honest and hard-working mechanic. He has helped me personally and with my business truck for years and helped diagnosis and treat difficult problems, as my truck is old. He does very good work!

Scott is the man! This is a man that cares about his work & his customers. I've lived in the Boise area since March & not one friend could give me the name of a trustworthy reasonable mechanic. I tried using Yelp to help find a shop that had high ratings & mostly positive reviews. I had a shop (Walter @ Mac's Automotive) convince me that replacing my rear end assembly instead of rebuilding the differential would be more cost-effective due to labor & parts. Initially quoted me $2300 ($1700 for the rear end) + $500 for 2 sensors that had to be replaced (told me that I had to do all 4). Ended up having Scott tow my truck from that shop to his & I told him what The prior shop had told me. To my surprise, Scott came back that same day quoting me $1300 for the rebuild. Then he mentioned the sensors & expressed their importance but I didn't have to do all 4. All said & done........$1655 out the door! Thank God For Perfection Drivetrain!

I have used Scott to rebuild both of my vehicles, an F350 and a FJ Cruiser. They both run like they are brand new. He does great work and let’s you know exactly what he needs to fix. He has always been 100 percent honest. I will use Perfection Drivetrain for all my car needs and would recommend Scott to anyone who wants a service they can trust. Thanks Scott.Services: Electrical
