Find a local Tasker to replace your engine in Sydney Northern Beaches

Hi, I’m in Belrose (Northern Beaches) and need a qualified auto electrician to come to me and diagnose issues on my 2012 VW Jetta (Petrol). Issues: Check engine light on – my OBD scanner suggests a crankshaft position sensor (CKP) / crank sensor fault. Radiator/cooling fan keeps running after the car is switched off. What I’m after: Professional diagnosis (VW/VAG scan tool preferred) Identify root cause(s) (sensor, wiring, relay/module, etc.) Provide a clear repair plan + quote for parts and labour If parts are available and agreed, complete repairs (or schedule return visit) Clear codes and confirm the fix Budget: $100 for diagnosis (call-out + diagnostic time). After diagnosis, we’ll agree a separate price for any parts and repairs before proceeding. Requirements: Licensed/insured, experienced with VW/Audi (VAG) preferred Please comment with your availability and what scan tool you use (VCDS/ODIS etc. ideal)

I am looking to purchase a second-hand car in Sydney. I would like an engineer to view the car for me to ensure the car is good quality and report back their findings.

Hello! Price negotiable I need a 2TR-FE engine swap for my 2009 Hiace. I can get a donor vehicle delivered to your workshop anywhere in Sydney though prefer Northern Beaches. We need to pull out motors from both vehicles and install the good one in my van. Possibly do the clutch and swap the diff at same time. I'm flexible on dates and willing to offside if time lines up. (I'm not a mechanic but have some experience assisting with mechanical work) Always want to learn more mechanical in case I break down out bush and need to get out of trouble! Once the job is done donor van will go for scrap, or if useful to you you can keep it for parts etc

Engine Replacement for Toyota hi ace 1997 diesel manual

Checkout two boat engines. One is a 20hp mariner outboard, in good condition but hasn't run in 6-12 months, just needs the carby cleaned. Would be good to do this included in this task. The other engine is an inboard. 25 hp Yanmar Diesal, has had an oil issued that is now fixed but the overheating alarm goes off after 20-30 mins of running but the engine is not overheating. So it needs diagnosing. 2 hour task, $80 per hour

I’m looking purchasing a 2003 Mitsubishi Pajero Exceed NP (3.5L V6 petrol, automatic) as the first stage of a family-friendly overland touring build. I live in Manly Vale NSW and am hoping to work with an independent but experienced in suspension tuning, comfort upgrades, and engine work. Times are tough so I’d much rather use this service to build a long term relationship for more phases.

Just need a quote and if quote meets budget will pay to fix, will pay a call out fee, hopefully it’s spark plugs. Mazda Cx9 2011 model.

Service small inboard marine diesel engine Yanmar YSM8

vw wagon 1.4 tsi118 mk6 2013 - Over filled engine oil and lost cap Drove fine for 10 then went in hydrolock slowed down and dash codes went off and then pulled over and it would not start no crank Battery is completely flat even though brand new Alternator fault? Maybe some sensors have engine oil? Need drain to appropriate level And that its cleaned of excess oil in any electric /sensor area Make sure safe to jump start And get it running properly Maintenance can be done at another stage labour only I have the alternator ASAP

Vehicle: 2013 Volkswagen Golf Mk6 Comfortline TSI 118 Wagon (AJ5 1.4 TSI Engine) Issue Description: Engine oil was at zero. Added 5L of oil (instead of 3.5L) and drove for 10 minutes with the oil cap missing. Engine slowed down gradually and stalled. After waiting 30 minutes, the engine cranked once but would not start. Now, when turning the key to "ON," the A/C system cycles on and off erratically. and there's a few signs on the dash ABS etc Request for Diagnosis & Fixes: 1️⃣ Drain Excess Oil & Check Oil Condition Drain oil to correct level (3.5L max). Check if oil is foamy/aerated (indicating oil pump cavitation). Replace oil & filter if aeration is present. 2️⃣ Inspect & Clean PCV System & Intake Check if oil entered the PCV system or intake manifold. If oil is present, clean the throttle body & PCV hoses. 3️⃣ Inspect Spark Plugs & Cylinders for Oil Contamination Remove spark plugs; check if they are fouled with oil. If oil is in cylinders, clear it before attempting restart. 4️⃣ Check Electrical Components (Sensors & Alternator) Inspect crankshaft & camshaft position sensors for oil contamination. Test the alternator & battery voltage (possible oil damage). Ensure all ground connections & wiring harnesses are clean. 5️⃣ Manually Rotate Crankshaft Use a socket on the crank pulley to check if the engine turns freely. If it doesn’t turn, diagnose hydrolock or bearing seizure. 6️⃣ Check Timing Chain Alignment (If No Start) Verify if the timing chain tensioner lost oil pressure, causing misalignment. 7️⃣ Scan for Error Codes (OBD2 Diagnostics) Retrieve any stored codes related to crankshaft/camshaft sensors, misfires, or oil pressure issues. Priority Actions Before Restart Attempt: ✔️ Drain excess oil to proper level. ✔️ Clean PCV, intake, and sensors if oil is present. ✔️ Check spark plugs & battery voltage. ✔️ Manually crank engine before using starter.
