Plenty of reliable shops out there.

A clutch job isn't really the most difficult thing on a honda.

Really quite simple, actually.

The area you're looking for may help, too.

just find the most expensive shop in your area. They're reliable.

Stan's Transmission on Kingsway.

They're good and don't try to sell you stuff you don't need. They know when to use parts from wreckers, when to buy new, etc.

I'm the third generation in my family to bring my car there.

Funny, I work across the lot from Stan and crew.

They're good guys, quick and reliable, and they stand behind their work 100%.

That being said, if you're going to see them, you may as well see me.
