Recent jobs

Real jobs, real driveways.

Not a van full of oil filters. These are jobs off the tools in the last little while, done on the customer's own concrete.

Subaru WRX with the engine and turbo assembly removed on site
JOB 01

Engine out, WRX

Full engine and turbo assembly pulled on site. The kind of job that usually means a tow and a week without your car.

Subaru boxer engine with the timing belt and pulleys exposed
JOB 02

Timing belt & pulleys

Belt, tensioner and idlers replaced together, because doing one and leaving the rest is how you end up back here.

100 Series Landcruiser up on stands with the front end apart
JOB 03

100 Series front end

Hubs, bearings and steering components stripped and rebuilt in the driveway. Everything laid out, nothing rushed.

New slotted brake rotor and caliper fitted to a four wheel drive
JOB 04

Brakes & rotors

Slotted rotors and fresh pads fitted and bedded in. Braking is the one thing worth doing properly on a 4WD.

Holden Commodore with the engine removed, kerbside
JOB 05

Commodore engine swap

Engine out kerbside and back in. If it can be done on a hoist, it can usually be done where the car is sitting.

Mechanic working on a van engine beside a caravan
JOB 06

Van service, on the road

Travellers and vanlifers get looked after where they are parked, so a service does not cost you a day of the trip.

What I do

If it bolts to a car, it gets done here.

01

Logbook servicing

Full and interim services to manufacturer schedule, stamped and recorded. New car warranty stays intact.

02

Brakes & suspension

Pads, rotors, calipers, bushes, shocks and steering. Rebuilt properly, torqued to spec, road tested.

03

Engine & timing

Timing belts and chains, head gaskets, engine removal and refit. The heavy work, on site.

04

Diagnostics

Scan tool on the car, fault traced, cause explained in plain English before a single part gets bought.

05

Breakdowns & no starts

Flat, cranking, overheating or dead on the shoulder. Roadside first, and most things get sorted there.

06

Pre-purchase inspections

Before you hand over the cash, a full look over the car with an honest yes or no and what it will cost you.

How it works

Three steps, no drop off.

No booking your car in for a week. No lift to work. The tools come to the car.

01

Ring or message

Tell me what it is doing and what you drive. You get a straight answer on whether it is a roadside fix or a bigger job.

02

I come to the car

Home, work, campsite or the side of the road. Everything needed is on the ute, so the job starts the moment I arrive.

03

Quoted before it is done

You get the price and the reason before a spanner goes near it. Nothing gets replaced that did not need replacing.

Where I go

Based in Bangalow, out across the shire.

If you are in the Byron hinterland or along the coast, you are in range. Not sure? Ring and ask, it is usually a yes.

Came out to the house, found the problem in ten minutes and had it sorted the same afternoon. Did not have to take a day off work for it.
