The shop's own site says it will "provide you with fair and honest pricing on any of our services" and "We will never try to sell you a service you don't need." Here is what drivers ask about most. ## How you can pay ### What forms of payment does the shop take? Visa, Mastercard and cash. ### Can I pay with a credit or debit card? Visa and Mastercard cards are accepted. If you plan to pay another way, call (775) 829-1333 and ask before you come in. ### Can I pay in cash? Yes, cash is accepted.

That depends on the vehicle, the parts and what the diagnosis finds, so the shop tells you after it has looked. Call and ask. The guide on [what affects the cost of transmission work](https://a1transmissionrenonv.com/guides/transmission-repair-cost-factors/) explains the factors in general terms. ### Does the shop have a warranty? Ask about warranty coverage when you call. The shop will tell you what applies to your vehicle and repair, and the guide on [questions to ask about a transmission warranty](https://a1transmissionrenonv.com/guides/transmission-warranty-questions/) lists what to ask any shop. ### Can I get an idea of the cost before I bring the vehicle in? Ask on the phone. The shop can tell you what to expect for your vehicle once it knows the year, make, model, engine and what the vehicle is doing. ## Diagnosis and the decision ### Do I have to approve the work? Yes. The shop diagnoses first and explains what the vehicle needs. What happens next is your decision. See [how diagnosis works](https://a1transmissionrenonv.com/faq/diagnosis/). ### Why do repair costs vary so much? Because the same symptom can come from a small fault or a large one, and parts and labor differ by vehicle. That is why the diagnosis comes first. ### What should I ask when I call? Ask about cost, timing, warranty coverage and the payment you plan to use. The [call checklist](https://a1transmissionrenonv.com/call/) lists what to have ready. ### Sources - [A-1 Transmission, About page (old site, read September 6, 2026)](https://a1transmissionrenonv.com/) - [A-1 Transmission, Contact and Location page (old site, read September 6, 2026)](https://a1transmissionrenonv.com/contact-location/) Keep reading ## Related pages [How diagnosis works At A-1 Transmission, diagnosis comes before any repair.](https://a1transmissionrenonv.com/faq/diagnosis/)[What affects the cost of transmission work Transmission repair and rebuild cost depends mainly on how much is damaged, which vehicle it is.](https://a1transmissionrenonv.com/guides/transmission-repair-cost-factors/)[Questions to ask about a transmission warranty Before you approve transmission work at any shop, ask what the warranty covers, how long it lasts, where it can be honored and what voids it.](https://a1transmissionrenonv.com/guides/transmission-warranty-questions/)[What to tell us when you call Have the year, make, model and mileage ready, then describe what it does and when it happens.](https://a1transmissionrenonv.com/call/) More questions ## Other question pages [Appointments and walk-ins Appointments are suggested, and walk-ins are welcome during business hours, Monday to Friday from 7:30 am to 5:30 pm.](https://a1transmissionrenonv.com/faq/appointments-and-walk-ins/)[Hours and location A-1 Transmission is open Monday to Friday from 7:30 am to 5:30 pm and closed Saturday and Sunday, at 670 East Grove Street, Reno, NV 89502.](https://a1transmissionrenonv.com/faq/hours-and-location/)[How diagnosis works At A-1 Transmission, diagnosis comes before any repair.](https://a1transmissionrenonv.com/faq/diagnosis/)[What to expect at the shop Expect a phone call or a walk-in during business hours, a diagnosis, and a plain explanation of what your vehicle needs before any work.](https://a1transmissionrenonv.com/faq/what-to-expect/) ## Not shifting right? 670 East Grove Street, Reno, NV 89502 Monday to Friday, 7:30 am to 5:30 pm [What to tell us when you call](https://a1transmissionrenonv.com/call/) [(775) 829-1333](tel:+17758291333)
