A Porsche is known for its sleek look and fashionable styling. A VW is known for its practicality and functionality.

Porsche is sought for speed and performance. VW is sought for reliability and economy.

Porsche is known as a sports car. VW is known as “The People’s car.” Different in many ways and yet the two are also share similarities beginning with a common heritage of superior German engineering. And they should. Since both were invented by Ferdinand Porsche—an engineer born in Maffersdorf, Austria-Hungary.

While their position in the market differs, Porsche and Volkswagen have maintained a close relationship—sharing features and technology. And today, while each has gained a unique sense identity, each is considered a desirable automobile in its own right.

Of course even the best of products will break down. And one of the most expensive repairs on any car is the transmission. Here’s why. 

An automatic transmission is made up of thousands of individual components. A repair involves taking it apart piece by piece to inspect and replace each one as needed. And reassembling it piece by piece and subassembly into assembly. Then it’s all adjusted and tested. And if that’s not enough, today’s transmissions are all computer controlled so that too, must be calibrated.

It is a painstaking process and yes, it is expensive. But in expert hands the results are like a new transmission. And you can trust the ones here at Westside Transmission.
