Warning Light On?

A dash light that appeared on Tuesday is worth checking before it becomes a tow. Bring the car in, we find the cause, and you get a quote with the fix and the cost before anything is replaced. If it can safely wait until the next service, we tell you that too. Customers come from across the eastern suburbs for this.

Brake Repairs

A soft pedal, a shudder when stopping or a squeal on light braking are early signs. We measure pads and rotors and test brake fluid, so the decision is based on millimetres rather than guesswork. Acting at the pad stage costs a fraction of waiting for the rotors. Hard driven cars like the BMW M2, M3 and M4 go through pads faster.

Batteries and Charging

Slow starts on cold Melbourne mornings usually point to the battery or charging system. We test both and replace the battery if it is due. The 12 volt battery check matters on electric cars too. Electric cars get the same check, alongside our Tesla protection work.

Belts, Hoses and Leaks

A drip on the driveway, a squeal at start up or a sweet smell after a drive all have a cause worth finding early. Belts and hoses are inspected, and leaks are traced and quoted before repair.

Suspension and Steering

Worn bushes, tired shocks and loose steering parts show up early if someone is listening. A bush caught at inspection costs far less than a control arm at failure. For owners after more, we fit KW performance suspension. Utes that carry loads wear suspension faster, see our ute protection page.

Tyres and Alignment

We supply and fit tyres, balance wheels and correct alignment. Uneven wear is usually an alignment story, and the steering pull most drivers have learned to live with is often a quick fix. Off roaders like the Ford Raptor knock alignment out fastest, and 4WDs that tour need it checked after every trip.

Roadworthy Inspections

Buying, selling or re-registering, we inspect to the VicRoads standard and give you a straight list of what passes, what fails and what it costs to fix. Repairs are quoted on the spot, so one visit can take the car from listed to legal. Selling? A cut and polish before the listing photos helps too.

Exhaust Work

Exhaust repairs and performance exhaust work are handled through AK Exhaust. Everything fitted is chosen to stay road legal, and you get in writing exactly what was changed.

One Workshop for the Whole Car

The same Mitcham workshop does your mechanical work and your detailing, paint protection film and ceramic coating. A repair can run alongside a detail in one visit, and the team working on the engine knows what is on the paint, so nobody leans on a filmed guard. More about who we are, and how to find us on the contact page.

Logbook Servicing Too

Under factory warranty, logbook servicing to manufacturer specification keeps the warranty intact, and we stamp and document it. Repairs found at a service are quoted before we touch them. Details are on the car service page. It keeps a new car warranty intact.

Performance Upgrades

For owners who want more than maintenance, we fit KW suspension and handle exhaust work through AK Exhaust. Every upgrade gets a test drive before handover, and you get in writing exactly what was changed.
