Brake, transmission, exhaust and glass work is often done by specialty shops that see the same job dozens of times a week. Brake shops replace pads and rotors the same day and usually inspect for free; transmission shops rebuild or replace automatics and clutches, a multi-day job that deserves a second quote; muffler and exhaust shops weld custom pipes and replace catalytic converters, which in many states must meet emissions rules. Alignment and suspension shops fix pulling, uneven tire wear and worn shocks, and radiator shops handle overheating and cooling-system leaks. Auto glass shops replace windshields, often at your home or office, and recalibrate the driver-assistance cameras mounted behind the glass. Window tinting and car audio shops round out the group.
Hours are published for 5 days a week. Typical hours are 7 am–4 pm. It is closed on Saturday, Sunday.

Schenectady is in New York, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. Traffic in Schenectady peaks on weekday mornings and afternoons, so allow extra time then. Addresses read from the street number up to the city, state abbreviation and five-digit ZIP code; the map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Steve at Opitz Transmission is truly one of the good ones. He is honest, trustworthy, knowledgeable, and takes the time to put his customers at ease. His extensive experience and ability to clearly explain what is going on with your vehicle make such a stressful situation feel much more manageable. I could not be more grateful for his help, professionalism, and integrity. It is rare to find someone in the automotive industry who makes you feel confident that you are being treated fairly, but Steve absolutely does. I highly recommend him and Opitz Transmission. Nicole

Great people! Honest and trustworthy. I took my 1967 Chevelle to get a rebuild transmission. Thing runs better than ever! I will be back with my other cars if ever needed. Take your car here, they do the right thing. Joe-

Accurate diagnosis. Quick rebuild and repair of my transmission at a fair price for all the work involved. We have used them before with a different vehicle and also had a good experience. I would recommend Opitz highly for any transmission issues.

Place tried to take advantage of my misfortune. I stopped in after experiencing transmission issues with my car. I was heading out of town for work so left it with them so they could take their time and perform a proper diagnosis like they offered. I received a phone call from them advising that the entire transmission was bad in my can and no one fixes them, my options were to only replace the transmission at a cost of $7700! I told them not to proceed and I would be back over the weekend to pick it up, they said it would be locked and safe there until I returned. When I returned I found my car was unlocked and had been rummaged through. Now after some research and diagnostics on my own I found a TSB from the manufacturer that matched the codes and symptoms it was having. I ordered the 3 parts (a valve body, 2 pressure sensors) I did the repair myself and all is now working as it should. $250 was my total cost of this repair. Do not trust Opitz, they do not do any actual diagnostic work, repairs, or services. They are just out to sell you new transmissions at inflated prices.

Acceptional, professional and very honest about everything. The dealership wanted to charge me twice the price for a rebuilt transmission. Opitz did it for half the price. We are not talking about $1,000 off of 1500 off actually half the price. Don't even think twice bring it there if you care about your vehicle and your wallet.
