Reviews Needed on VERTEX Auto Engine or Transmission Rebuilds- Vertex Auto Miami.
Anyone have any experience with rebuilding their Porsche engines or transmissions at Vertex Auto in Miami.
This is the same company as Vertex Auto Parts.

The transmission in my 944 was rebuilt by them - at least that's what the receipt says (done before I purchased the car so I have no idea what really happened). It is a bit noisy (but all 944 transmissions are). I've put about 40,000 miles on it - including one track day and bunch of autocrosses... I typically don't baby the car.

I'd say they're OK, but I'm only one person - I'm sure someone else has some experience?

I've bought parts from them and never had a problem. Their prices are competitive and their service was great.

Bought parts. Service and price were good.

You might be better off dealing with a transmission place one on one. I doubt they rebuild stuff in house.
