After having dealt with dodgy mechanics for years who love to over charge people, it was a breath…read moreof fresh air to find Kmart Tyre and Auto Service. KTAS (for short) have been there for years but I have never dealt with them up until about a month ago. The team there are brilliant and Michael and Cassie who run it are an absolute pleasure to deal with. They tell you straight if there is any issues with the car and will give you accurate pricing and also give you options on what needs to be fixed first. The are priced well and you can drop of your car there in the morning and pick up at the end of the day and they are also open on Saturdays. Would highly recommend KTAS!

Luckily for me, Repco was open on a public holiday!

Repco is the auto parts chain that was around when I was a kid. They still feel a little less…read moreretail (most parts are stored out the back and someone has to go grab it all for you), but they do appear to be increasing their shelf space out the front. This particular store is open weekends (not all are), which is great for the enthusiast working on their car, or just the person saving a bit of cash doing their own service. I recommend knowing what you want before coming in (product codes and the like), but even if you don't, the staff are happy to look it all up for you. Every staff member here has been super friendly and helpful. I went in today because I saw they had 35% off the oil I was after. While grabbing various filters also needed, the man helping me let me know the Repco brand price as well as other options, so wasn't trying to upsell the most expensive brand or even the company brand. If you're a member of RACQ you can expect a 10% discount as well, but keep an eye out. A few weeks ago it was a 30% discount, and it was 20% today. I'll definitely be back here next time I need something for my car.

I am so paranoid when it comes to mechanics! I have been to so many dodgy ones where you check in…read morefor a standard service and leave with a list as long as your arm and an empty bank account. I am happy to say that Aussie Auto on Pickering Street in Alderley is definitely one you can trust, just good old fashioned honest and reliable service. The team here are very pleasant and really flexible! I don't know how many times I have booked my car in for a service and then had to cancel/reschedule at the last minute. I have a Rav 4 and a standard service for me usually costs around $140 and includes a full inspection of the vehicle, a minor detail, engine de-grease and car wash! The little extra niceties make all the difference.

They do good, well priced mechanic work, but they also sell car parts at very cheap prices (cheaper if you're trade). I imagine this would be the perfect combo for home car buffs - get the advice and cheap parts, and if it's too hard bring it in for them to finish off.

Had several problems with my initial visit to them, contacted their main store at Yeerongpilly…read moreabout the problems who apologised and listened to my concerns and assured me that this problem would not occur again. Booked the car into the Yeerongpilly store (which is on the way to work for me), they were extremely professional, provided excellent service, useful suggestions and advice, and rectified all of my issues. Have not been back to the Stafford store to see if the problems I encountered have been taken care of, but management at Fulcrum Suspensions definitely care about the thoughts and concerns of their customers, so definitely give them a go, and if there are any further dramas let their management know and they will be on top of it (which is much much better than some other companies I've dealt with!) A++ for listening and fixing the problem, hopefully future customers at this store receive as good as service as I received at their Yeerongpilly store.
