Testimonial

Dear Steve, Joel, and Mitchell: Thank you for the extraordinary cleanliness, courtesy, competency, and caring (the 4-C's if you will) of your shop and staff during the recent service on my 2004 Jetta TDI. I am especially appreciative of your willingness to work with the peculiarities of my Jetta (special oil, filters, etc.) and invite me to inspect the vehicle while Mitchell was working on it. This, for me, shows a willingness for the customer to be truly informed about what is happening with his/her car; somewhat of a rarity in my experiences with auto repair shops. Doing well with the 4-C's takes more than just effort but a commitment and attitude for creating and sustaining value to customers. May all who wisely chose Phillips Auto Care for their car needs come to appreciate this as much as I have.‎

Vehicle Transmission Repair & Replacement

New Clutch

Have an Automatic or manual (stick) transmission? No problem, we can maintain and repair it.

The transmissions of today are much more sophisticated than in years past and require intimate knowledge of both the mechanical as well as the electronic (computer controlled) systems for proper diagnosis and repair. Phillips Auto Care has both the latest training and information systems as well as State-of-the-Art diagnostic equipment to quickly and efficiently diagnose and repair your vehicle. As a matter of fact, Phillips Auto Care opened its doors in 1976, primarily as a transmission specialty shop. Our many years of experience (over 60 years combined) position us as the premier facility in Manteca to handle your transmission related concerns.

Most of the transmissions we supply carry an extended warranty of up to 3 years or 100,000 miles!

Clutch Repair and Replacement

Many drivers assume that when the clutch doesn't seem to work properly that its time for a new clutch. Although this may be true in some cases, we find that there are often other issues that may not require such extensive repair. Phillips Auto Care begins with a comprehensive inspection of the clutch system to determine the source of the problem and therefore can recommend the proper repair. In some cases, the problem may only be a clutch hydraulic component failure such as a clutch master cylinder or slave cylinder. In other cases the clutch may indeed require replacement. In the event that a clutch replacement is required, we will only use new clutches from trusted manufactures and resurfacing or the flywheel is always performed on site (this corner is sometimes cut by other "professionals") to control the quality of the final repair.

4 Wheel Drive Repairs

4WD vehicles use a “transfer case” and additional other components to provide power to all 4 wheels. This is especially useful when driving in wet/snowy conditions but also allows off-road enthusiasts to enjoy getting to places not accessible by any other mode of transport. Although generally reliable, there are intricacies to these systems that at times can cause operation problems- sometimes even turning on a warning light at the dash. Our many years of dealing with transmissions have also acquainted us with the myriad of 4WD systems in use today. Our expertise and experience allow us the ability to properly diagnose and repair these systems.

Obviously, the best situation would be to have little or no problems with the 4WD systems in your vehicle. That is why we recommend regular maintenance of the vital fluids used by these components. Ask our Service Advisor today how best to maintain your 4WD system.
