So here is the situation. Your car hasn’t been running quite so well, so you took it to your local mechanic to “check it out” and spent the next four hours waiting for the axe to fall. Later that day, the phone rings, and it is the call you have been waiting for.
A sombre voice on the other end that sounds like it should be coming from a funeral home says, “G’day, I’ve looked at your car”, and pauses…you hold your breath. “The brakes are fine. It was just the mat bunching up under the pedal causing that ‘soft’ feeling. Come get your car when you are ready. No charge.”
Unfortunately, this sort of good news from your mechanic is rare. The conversation is much more likely to start with “Well, I hope you have your cheque book handy” or “Are you sitting down?” So what are the best things for you in this bad situation?
There are two things that are really important right now. The first is that the mechanic working on your motor vehicle is an experienced, qualified mechanic with up-to-date knowledge on vehicle maintenance and repairs.
The second is preventative maintenance. Regular servicing will prevent a lot of those niggling little problems from turning into the need to re-mortgage the house or trade the car in on a new model.

FAQ
The first step in repairing your car is to diagnose the problem. Once done, we can then provide an estimate for the time it will take to complete the repairs, normally via phone the same day as drop off. Factors include the availability of parts and the extent of the problem, and where the problem is located on the car.
