A McKinney shop built on straight talk
Since 1988, one promise: diagnose honestly, quote up front, fix it right. That's how a transmission shop keeps customers for 38 years.
38 years on South McDonald Street
Economy Transmission opened its doors in 1988 with a simple idea: treat every car like it belongs to a neighbor — because around here, it usually does. What started as a transmission specialty shop grew into full-service auto repair, but the approach never changed.
We diagnose before we recommend. We put estimates in writing before we start. And when a cheaper fix will do the job, that's the one we suggest. It's why families who came in 2005 still come in today — with their kids' cars.

We find the actual problem before recommending anything. No parts-cannon guesswork on your dime.
A firm, written estimate before work starts. The price you approve is the price you pay.
If a $200 service beats a $3,000 rebuild, that's our recommendation. Every time.
Work done in-house by our own mechanics, backed by warranty. Problems come back to us, not you.
ASE certified, code of ethics signed
Every mechanic on our floor is ASE certified — the national standard for automotive competence, earned through testing and proven hands-on experience, and re-tested every five years to stay current.
We've also signed the ASE Code of Ethics: recommend only needed work, quote before we start, and stand behind every repair. It's on paper — and it's on the wall.
