Logbook Servicing

Want to keep your new car running like new and maintain its value? Follow your car’s service schedule with our manufacturer-approved logbook servicing. Regular servicing means better performance and fuel efficiency.

Is your registration due? Has your car been involved in an accident? Are you buying or selling a vehicle? We’re an authorised inspection station for all your rego needs, including pink slips, blue slips, and pre-purchase inspections.

If your brakes are screeching, grinding, or feel spongy, or if your clutch is slipping or sticking, it’s time for a check-up. We offer full brake and clutch repairs and replacements. Enjoy a better drive with responsive brakes and a smooth-shifting clutch.

A bumpy ride, excessive bouncing, leaning, or unusual noises like clunking or squeaking could indicate suspension problems. Our expert diagnostics and repairs will restore your vehicle’s handling for a comfortable drive.

Loud noises, exhaust fumes, reduced fuel efficiency, or a rattling sound could mean exhaust issues. We offer inspections, repairs, replacements, and performance upgrades. Enjoy a quieter ride, improved fuel economy, and reduced emissions.

Inspect your caravan or trailer for signs of wear and tear, especially in the wheel bearings, lights, and brakes. Ensure its safety and roadworthiness with our specialised maintenance services, including inspections and pre-sale checks.
