Grateful I went to them for a second opinion! Saved me $3,000, because they are knowledgeable about transmission and know how to diagnose the problem. Car is running great now.

I'm not sure how it could be better. Both Paul and Reece are great to work with. Their knowledge and communication gives you real confidence and they are fast and thorough.

Paul at Broadway automotive and transmission has been helping me to safely. Keep my older model car on the road until I’m ready to buy a new one. He worked out a personal maintenance plan that made sure the car was roadworthy but not cost me a lot of money. Great guy, great to work with and reasonable prices— great service!

Paul & Reese, co-owners of Broadway Transmission in Oakland for 26 years, deserve more than 5-Stars! Their service & expertise are unparalleled & exceptional in every way! We recently had them rebuild the transmission in our ‘97 VW Eurovan, and every step of the way, they were there to inform us & include us in the process. Our only complaint is that they’re an hour away from where we live, but honestly, they are worth the drive! Wish they could be our VW mechanics but don’t think we’ll be needing them for another 100K, but we might just stop by to say hi once in awhile! Such a great team they are! Thank you Paul & Reese! 🚐

Paul always helpful and friendly and professional. Never a delay in car work. One day service. Always take my cars to them. Great staff

Paul took care of a misfire problem for me this week on my old Honda. He had a busy week, but managed to find some time to service my vehicle. I have been using this shop for perhaps 7 years, and I get professional and courteous service every time.

Great customer service and a thorough assessment of the work that needs to be done on my car.

Great shop. Honest and knowledgeable. Diagnosed my problem fast!

Straight forward pros. Highly recommend.

Can't even begin to explain how much these people helped me. Stuck with me through every problem, and fixed everything I needed. Military member gold star seal of approval. It's hard to come by trustworthy shops, I'm happy to have found this place.

Can't recommend Paul & Broadway Automotive staff enough. They were super helpful in diagnosing the issues with my car and took the time to break down the costs. Will definitely be going back!

Great work, service, and communication.

I am so thankful for the work Broadway Auto did on my Subaru. I'd been having issues with the check engine light and AT oil temp lights, and when I had a mechanic in the area look at it, I was informed I would need to replace the entire transmission. I called a few transmission shops, and Paul was the only one who offered to take a second look at it because a full replacement might not be needed. He was right and this saved me a lot of money! I only needed the valve body replaced. Throughout the whole process Paul was super informative and patient especially with my scheduling needs. My car is back up and running with no issues! 🙏

Paul was fantastic. Made an appointment and dropped off the car in the AM. He called me a few hours later with diagnostic information, repair process and we were ready to go by the afternoon. Great service, 10/10

Fast, friendly, efficient, and excellent work! Simply the best!!

First time, recommended by local mechanic. BA consulted service I need for the car Nissan Maxima. Return for appointed date. Service was timely done, problem was serviced and properly corrected. Two weeks later, car is performing better than ever. Highly recommend. Thank you Broadway Automotive 👍

Paul was super kind, informative, and helpful! My transmission is running smoothly, but unfortunate that one of the workers stole gum from my car. It’s a small, inexpensive item but unnecessary and disappointing that happened during my first experience with this shop. Would’ve been a 5 star experience if that didn’t happen.

May 09, 2024

Proper service and handling, as usual. Truck always runs well after it is serviced. Have full confidence in Paul.

May 09, 2024

Really appreciated Paul taking his time to explain things to me. He was very empathetic and gentle when giving me bad news lol I trust this shop

This was my third attempt at getting my transmission repaired, twice by the first shop in Berkeley that left me with failures 6 months in so you might say I was on guard. Paul and Reese did an amazing job, my truck, a 22 year old ford with 321,000 miles came back to be sounding like it did when it was new, smooth transitions between gears, what an amazing difference. It was money well spent, they really did replace damaged and worn parts and it both sounds and shows the difference. I’ve been driving it for 4 days and not a hiccup! Wish I’d have found these guys my first and second go around.

I was referred to Broadway Automotive & Transmission by my regular mechanic, who does not work on Transmissions. My mechanic suspected my Mazda5 would need a new Transmission or a Rebuild. Paul at Broadway knew that model has a history of problems with a specific computer, replaced that and the car is running fine, without the more expensive work. Communication was clear and consistent, and the car was ready earlier than the initial estimate.

Paul and company are great. My friends parents, who used own an auto shop, just retired. This is my new go to shop. Thanks guys. The best thing about this shop is they don’t do repairs that aren’t necessary. I thought I needed new rear bearings on both sides and they found I only needed one. They recommended I not replace the struts due to the high mileage and lack of immediate need. Really honest shop, that does great work.

Apr 09, 2024

I trust everything that they tell me about my car and what needs to be done.

My BMW engine light came on. I called Paul. Paul told me to bring in within a few hours. They got a reading of misfiring cylinders. When I returned for repairs Reece was able to problem solve the engine wanting to send more oxygen. Reece cleaned a critical part and the problem was solved. It only took an hour of labor that required no new parts. My bill was very reasonable. It takes a while to get get an appointment because this shop is very busy. However I think it is worth the wait.

These guy’s are simply the Best at what they do. I was in a pinch and my Car was giving me a lot of Grief. I thought I was going to need a new Transmission or Differential. They figured out that I recently had some tires replaced and they were the wrong size. Sent me back to the Tire Store who sold them to me and they Admitted the mistake and all is good. So awesome to have an Auto Repair Shop that you can absolutely TRUST their word %100. I would give them Ten (10) Stars if I could. Thanks Guys...

A great experience, very friendly, helpful, and clear! I recommend this shop for all of your automotive needs.

Best shop in O-Town

Having car problems is never a fun experience. Even worse is finding out your mechanic has closed. Thankfully, my old mechanic recommended Broadway A&T. They were very accommodating even though their schedule was booked (always a good sign when a shop is busy). They quickly diagnosed my 02 Nissan Xterra (they work on older cars) cooling system issue and replaced my radiator and some other parts on my appointment day. Most importantly, my dog Gretel appreciates that they are dog friendly. Thank you again!!!

Mar 09, 2024

I just had my 01 Nissan Xterra worked on and I was pleased with the customer service and professional work. Even though they didn’t have an appointment available, they let me bring the vehicle in for troubleshooting. I left the vehicle on a Friday and picked it up on Monday. Great guys, nice clean working space and great communications with customer. Highly recommend.

Paul is always a friendly and effective communicator. He charged a fair price for replacing a motor mount. I was in and out in a day. Five stars

Mar 09, 2024

Took care of my issue for a fraction of the price that was quoted by the Ford Dealership. Fast, smart, and honest.
