About Rob Fox

Born Here.
Still Here.

Robert J. Fox Jr. was born and raised in Eustis. He started working on cars in the 1980s, built his skills the way most good mechanics do (on real cars with real problems) and has been doing it here for over four decades. This is his community. That shapes how he runs the shop.

Most shops in Lake County send transmission jobs to an outside rebuilder and mark up the cost. We do it in-house. That means better quality control, direct communication with the person doing the work, and pricing that does not include a middleman. If you have been getting different answers from different shops, bring it to us. We will give you an accurate diagnosis in writing before anyone touches your car.

Services and Service Areas

Transmission

Transmission Repair Automatic, manual, and CVT transmission diagnosis and repair done in-house, not farmed out to a rebuilder. Transmission Replacement When repair is not the right call, we source and install quality remanufactured or rebuilt units for all makes and models. Transmission Maintenance Fluid changes, filter replacement, and pan inspection to keep your transmission protected and running long-term. Transmission Flush Complete fluid exchange including the torque converter and cooler lines, not just what drains from the pan. Automatic Transmission Service Full service covering fluid, filter, pan gasket, and a complete inspection with a road test before you leave. CVT Transmission Service Fluid exchange and diagnostics for continuously variable transmissions using the correct manufacturer-specified fluid. Clutch Repair Full clutch replacement with flywheel resurfacing and hydraulic system inspection for manual transmission vehicles.

Engine and Diagnostics

Engine Repair Head gaskets, timing belts, oil leaks, and overheating diagnosis for all makes and models, diagnosed accurately before any work begins. Engine Rebuild Complete engine teardown, machine work, and reassembly to factory specification when repair is no longer enough. Engine Diagnostics Advanced scan tools combined with hands-on testing to find the actual root cause before any repair is recommended. Automotive Diagnostics Full-vehicle system scans covering every module on the vehicle, from the engine and transmission to ABS, airbags, and TPMS. Check Engine Light We find the actual cause, not just read the code. Written estimate before any repair, no guessing, no unnecessary parts. Diesel Engine Repair Injectors, turbos, glow plugs, DPF, and EGR service for Power Stroke, Duramax, Cummins, and diesel-powered imports.

AC and Climate

AC Installation and Repair Full AC system repair including compressors, condensers, evaporators, and leak detection, with vent temperature verified before you leave. Auto AC Recharge We find and fix the leak before recharging, then fill to the manufacturer-specified refrigerant weight, not just until the gauges look right. Auto AC Replacement Full component replacement when repair is not viable, done completely so the repair holds up through Florida summers for years.

Electrical and Battery

Auto Electrical Repair Alternators, starters, wiring, parasitic draws, and full electrical system diagnosis to find the actual fault before replacing anything. Battery Testing and Replacement Load test before we replace, plus a full charging system check to make sure a bad alternator is not what killed your battery.

Brakes, Suspension and Alignment

Auto Brake Repair Pads, rotors, calipers, and fluid service for all makes and models, with a full system inspection before anything is recommended. Steering and Suspension Repair Shocks, struts, tie rods, ball joints, and control arms to keep your vehicle handling safely and wearing tires evenly. Wheel Alignment Precision four-wheel alignment to correct pulling, uneven tire wear, and steering that will not hold a straight line. ADAS Calibration Camera and sensor recalibration after windshield replacement, alignment, or suspension work so your driver assistance systems work correctly.

General and Other

General Repairs and Maintenance Oil changes, belts, hoses, filters, spark plugs, and all routine maintenance to keep your vehicle reliable before problems develop. Auto Exhaust System Repair Mufflers, catalytic converters, oxygen sensors, and full exhaust system repair with a root cause diagnosis before any part is recommended. U-Haul Services Authorized U-Haul dealer on-site with trucks and trailers available for local and long-distance moves. Call to check availability.
