Best Mechanics

Got an absolute bargain on 4 tyres and an alignment and it was fitted and done quickly and without fuss. Great service, great guys. I Highly recommend and will not be going anywhere else from now on!

Very punctual and efficient technician. The technician, Indunil, who worked on this scratch repair did a great job repairing a side panel on my… Read more

Mazda. No signs of paint run, and the paint match still has the natural sparkle of the original coat. Very impressed!

State Roads have been excellent to deal with and were able to accommodate changing my booking for a different car and have been really responsive. … Read more

The mechanic was very knowledgeable and gave me really good insight about the issues they identified. Definitely going with these guys again for future inspections.

Solicited the service for a puncture. The technician was punctual, professional, and provided excellent comms.

Very professional service. Person was on time, communication was excellent. Schmick representative was very courteous

Had a flat battery yesterday, had been thinking for a while how long the NRMA battery that was replaced 8 years ago was going to last. The NRMA… Read more

service guy said 5 years is about the usual, so he said I did well, that is why I had no problems fitting a new NRMA battery.

I booked Lube Mobile for a yearly service on my 2015 Nissan Navara. The service itself came to $385.95, which I considered reasonable. However, I was… Read more

then charged an additional $286.92 to replace an engine air filter and two windscreen wiper blades.

The breakdown was:

Air filter: $80.41 Two wiper blades: $122.64 Labour: $57.78

In my opinion, nearly $287 for an air filter and wiper replacement is excessive, particularly given how straightforward these jobs are. The final bill was $672.87.

My advice is to ask for a detailed quote on any additional work and parts before authorising repairs. I won't be using the service again.

Received a msg from red book to inspect my car for the buyer.and after 3 days waiting i contacted them only yo find out the buyer canceled the booking without any notification from red book informing me . Very disappointing

I cannot recommend the Cheltenham branch highly enough. Michael and Amanda were extremely helpful. The repair to the front end of the Hyundai i20 was… Read more

undertaken with impressive timing and professional expertise. It looked to be a complicated and expensive repair but Michael undertook the repair without any difficulty and without anywhere near the cost I had expected. The car looks as new without any sign of a repair.

Great service from start to finish. The team was professional, easy to deal with, and completed the work to a high standard. Communication was… Read more

excellent throughout the process, and the job was finished on time. It’s refreshing to find a mechanical services company that takes pride in their workmanship and customer service. I would happily recommend them to anyone looking for reliable mechanical services.

Great service from Josh and Ash kept us updated did the job on time even fixed back windscreen wiper on replacement glass for free that was broken prior The best prices when rang around most of the other shops Thanks for the great work

Paid a $120 deposit after being told it was for job security. The technician arrived without the correct windscreen and could not complete the job.… Read more

When I requested a refund, he claimed the deposit was a call-out fee, which was never mentioned before payment. No service was provided, yet my deposit was kept. Very disappointing experience.

I was recently in the wrong place at the wrong and was hit from behind in a not at fault accident. I called my brother and asked what do as I was… Read more

actually a bit shook up. He suggested I call Melbourne Collission Centre at Mentone as he had a great experience previously. I called their number, they picked up within a few rings and spoke to a 'real' person. They were great, they put me at ease straight away and to be quite frank, simply took control of the situation on my behalf. I was provided with a 4WD hire car similar to mine, newer model actually, in around 50 minutes! I still find that service amazing to this day. Throughout the process I was given weekly updates, sometimes twice a week, with images of my car showing works being done, the overall progress even when inspections were being done. All this helped reduce the stress of it all. And when all was done, the car was delivered to my home just after 6pm when I get home and it is just perfect! If you too end up in the wrong place at the wrong time like me don't hesitate to call Melbourne Collision Repair Centre Mentone they take care of everything. Simply first class.

I highly recommend touch up guy operator Dave Deakin for the repairs on our Silver Mitsubishi eclipse cross. The damage was to the front bumper,… Read more

front mudguard and plastic wheel arch mould. The repair and colour match is perfect. Dave is very friendly and knows his work. The whole job was $250 cheaper than a panel shop in Blacktown. I highly recommend him.

Based on our experience, I would strongly recommend avoiding this business, especially if you are a vulnerable customer who relies on honest and… Read more

transparent service!!

My father engaged Ace Mechanics to repair his Mercedes and was invoiced for a “New Genuine SAM Module.” The repair ended up costing close to $4,000.

Shortly after the repair, the vehicle developed further issues. When we asked the business to provide basic documentation identifying the unit supplied (such as the supplier invoice or serial number), they were unwilling to provide any evidence of the part that was actually installed in the vehicle, despite charging for a “New Genuine SAM Module.”

My father is a pensioner and relies on access to the boot of the car for his mobility aid. The fault affecting the boot means the vehicle cannot be used independently, which has effectively left him unable to leave home without assistance and caused significant stress.

If the business chooses to respond to this review, I will be happy to attach the supporting documentation from this dispute, which demonstrates our repeated requests for evidence of the unit installed and the business’s refusal to disclose this information.

Poor workmanship and very poor follow-up. The roof liner installation on my HSV Senator caused damage, including glue residue, broken trim, and… Read more

visible rippling. Despite emailing numerous times and being told the installer would contact me, no one ever did. I was forced to pay another company to redo the work and source replacement trim at my own expense. Not happy with this company and would not recommend.

Paid 299 for a service with wheel rotation at mycar Aitkenvale. The car was returned with two missing wheel trims. I raised the issue in person twice… Read more

giving them a chance to find were they left them. They denied they were in the car when it was brought in. They know if. They were missing already. Now I have to buy new wheel trims would be able to see it on their CCTV.

Last Check helped me decide between 2 seemingly near-identical vehicles. The decision was a no-brainer given their thorough reporting and industry… Read more

knowledge. One vehicle was the clear winner while the other had plenty of worrying issues identified. 100% saved me from years of headaches and ongoing costs. 100% worth the investment.

Great customer service and was booked in really quickly. Alan was amazing and explained everything. The repair was fixed really quickly and is flawless. Highly recommend and would use again without question. Thanks Alan!

all over, looked disgusting. The team were very professional and the gentleman who came out was very helpful and did a fantastic detail.

My 13 year old VW Beetle has been restored by the Bump Shop & I am so impressed with the excellent job they have done. It is clear that this business takes pride in their work & ensures it is done to a very high standard. Thank you for a great job.

SHAME, SHAME, SHAME ON YOU My young son took his car to Auto Masters Canning Vale on 04-02-2026 expecting honest advice and fair pricing. Instead,… Read more

he walked away with a bill of over $2,400.

Yes, a battery was included in the work, but the price charged for it — along with the overall invoice — was, in our view, completely unreasonable. As a young driver with limited mechanical knowledge, he trusted the advice he was given. Unfortunately, that trust was not respected.

What made the situation even more concerning was that he was also told the car needed new tyres, even though those tyres had only travelled about 10,000 km. Our previous set of the same tyres lasted roughly 40,000 km, so that recommendation immediately raised serious questions.

After reading through many other reviews, it is hard not to notice similar concerns being raised repeatedly — high bills, unexpected recommendations, and customers leaving feeling they were pushed into work they did not truly understand or expect. Several reviews from women and younger customers describe very similar experiences, which is troubling.

Before the standard response appears saying “we can’t find the booking”, “this isn’t an authentic review”, or “there was a video explaining the work”, let me be clear:

• This was a real visit to Auto Masters Canning Vale • The date was 04-02-2026 • The invoice total was over $2,400 • One of the recommendations was for new tyres at only 10,000 km

The issue isn’t that work was done — the issue is pricing, transparency, and trust. When a young person takes their car in, they should receive honest guidance, not leave feeling like they have been talked into excessive costs.

I strongly suggest anyone — particularly young drivers, women, and families — get a second opinion before approving major work here.

In our view, this was not service — it was opportunistic selling dressed up as advice.

This experience left us feeling that a young customer was seen as an easy sale rather than someone who deserved honest advice.

Great communication & service. Awesome staff. Would well recommend this company. From the process of starting my claim till the finish of installation of my windscreen ,it was just seamless. Many Thanks. Steve Klink

Absolutely stand out service from my first enquiry to the finished install, highly recommend, thanks

I had a couple small scratches on my bumper removed by Bryce, who did the job in no time and did a fantastic job. I would highly recommend Bryce and Bumper Tech.

Very happy with Skinny's. Friendly staff and work completed on time.

I thought I would add a review for Merrylands & Holroyd Smash Repairs as all the others are years old. I had my vehicle repaired last week by this… Read more

company and can only agree with the other older reviews, mine was a private job (not through insurance) to repair damage to the back door of my suv which didn't look much but hidden beneath the panels a bit more damage had been sustained. I can only say the repairs where done immaculately, color match was really good and overall repair was really excellent and timely completed. Yes the premises compared to other shops probably doesn't look as good, but the repairs are very well done. If you are looking for a repair job in the Merrylands area I can only recommend them to do a good job.

Leon was awesome to work with, he was able to align my Sierra on short notice and got the job done in a jiffy. Very convenient, definitely will use in future

Capital Smart Hoppers crossing provided poor service. Had to go there 3 times for issues , Quality work is not done. Caused a new dent and One of the repairers is very rude not accepting mistake behaving rudely and sending us away.
