AVOID ManTrans In Florida
Good Day All:
As is often quoted, “Enter at your own risk”. Do NOT send your transmission to ManTrans (www.ManTrans.net or www.ManTrans.com) in Tallahassee, Florida. After speaking with Cindy Allen of ManTrans, I sent them a 65K mile ZF 5-speed transmission for a rebuild just to make sure it was new before installing. My credit card was billed immediately. The transmission was delivered to their facility May 28, 2019 for what was supposed to be a 2-3 week rebuild. As you can guess, it’s now mid-October 2019 and no transmission. The ongoing saga: • We need one bearing to finish the rebuild (July 2, 2019). I’ve contacted the credit card company to dispute the charge, but since it’s past 60 days, they’ve no guarantee. I’m writing off the ZF transmission costs as part of my ongoing adult education. Call this my mistake for at least not checking the Better Business Bureau. I don’t usually put much stock in the BBB, but I’ve never seen a “F” rating. https://www.bbb.org/us/fl/tallahasse...0403-160444139 Many of us have had similar issues with other vendors. This is my experience with ManTrans. You may want to avoid them. God knows in what condition the ZF will be returned, if it comes back at all. Feff |

Man, what a PIA.
I wouldn’t be surprised if your tranny was sold. Sounds like this guy has some personal issues and put himself in a box. He hopes you go away. If I lived nearby, I’d grab a buddy and check on “the progress” for you. |
