I've been taking my car to Santa Rosa Transmission for years. I currently have over 260,000 on my 1994 Volvo wagon and have never had a transmission problem. I used to have my transmission serviced every year but now it's about every two years because I'm driving less. Sam gets me in and out in an hour and there's a nice waiting room with comfy couches. In fact I fell asleep on one of them today ; )
