What Happens When You Book In
The same four steps whatever the job, so there are no surprises between dropping the car off and picking it up.
- 01
Book it in
Call (02) 4261 5199 or send the form with your rego, make and model and what the car is doing.
- 02
We diagnose it
We find the actual fault rather than guessing at the symptom, so you only pay to fix what is broken.
- 03
You get a price
We call you with the options and the cost. Nothing further gets touched until you say go ahead.
- 04
We do the work
Repaired properly the first time, road-tested, and handed back with an explanation of what we did.
Not Sure Which Job You Need?
Most people call us with a symptom rather than a service name, and that’s genuinely the easier way round. A grinding noise when you brake is a brake repair. A shudder as you take off in a manual is usually a clutch. An orange engine light is a job for car diagnostics, because the light on its own tells you almost nothing.
A car that won’t crank, a flat battery every few days or an accessory that’s stopped working is an auto electrical job. A car that wanders, crashes over bumps or wears its tyres unevenly points at suspension.
And if your rego is due and the car is more than five years old, what you need is a pink slip inspection — often on the same visit as your logbook service, which saves you a second trip.
Describe it in plain English
“It squeals when I reverse.” “It won’t start when it’s cold.” “There’s a puddle under the front.” That’s more than enough for us to work with. Ring the workshop, tell us what the car is doing, and we’ll tell you what it needs and roughly what it costs before you commit to anything.
Common questions
Questions About Booking In
What Dapto drivers ask before they bring the car down.
What car repairs can you do in-house?
Almost everything short of panel and paint. Servicing, brakes, clutches, suspension, cooling, engine work, diagnostics and auto electrical are all done here at Marshall Street, which means your car isn’t shuffled between two workshops and two invoices.
How do I know which service I need?
You don't have to. Describe the symptom — a noise, a light, a smell, a feel through the pedal — and we'll work out which job it actually is. Booking the wrong service costs you nothing; we'll tell you before we start.
How long will my car be in the workshop?
Most routine jobs are same-day. A logbook service is usually a couple of hours, a pink slip around half an hour, and brakes are typically same-day. Bigger jobs like a clutch replacement need the car overnight — we'll tell you upfront when you book.
Do you work on diesel and 4WDs?
Yes. Diesel utes and 4WDs are a regular part of the work here, alongside petrol hatchbacks, family SUVs and performance cars.
