Pre-purchase assessment on 2011 Mazda cx9
$200
Ladies - look no further - this is the guy you want on speed dial for when vehicle issues need resolving! Gents - you want to a mechanic that has those old school mechanical skills that only comes from pulling apart car engines and putting them back together, well this guy enhances those old school mechanical skills with use of the latest scanning and diagnostic tools! And if that isn’t enough for you - he’s past experience includes several years at Hyundai! Cannot praise Mat enough for his level of service and ability to persevere with complex vehicle faults that don’t present themselves immediately and unlike other “mechanics”, Mat doesn’t show up to collect his assessment fee, he shows up, makes the vehicle his bitch and pulls it apart until he’s found the root cause! Expect nothing but honest and detailed assessment of his findings including estimate of cost to resolve! Thank you Mat!

What do head gasket repair services include?
Our repair services include a thorough assessment, full repair work, and final inspection and testing. Here's what to expect when you hire a head gasket repair expert through Airtasker:
Head Gasket Assessment
As soon as your Tasker arrives, they'll ask you several questions about the issues you're having with your car. They will conduct a thorough assessment to determine whether your head gasket can still be fixed or if it needs replacing.
Head Gasket Repair
Once your Tasker identifies the problem, they will set up the necessary tools and proceed with the repairs. If it's only a minor issue or leak, they will repair it using gasket sealants which are usually in the form of a paste, glue, or spray. But first, they must remove the thermostat and flush the cooling system with water before pouring the sealer inside. They will then run your vehicle for 50 minutes with the cap on before placing a new thermostat.
Once the engine is cooled, your Tasker will drench the cooling system with antifreeze, then fix and tighten the head bolts inside the engine. If using sealers and tightening the bolts doesn't fix the problem, then a replacement may be the best solution.
Head Gasket Final Inspection and Testing
Our Tasker will do a final inspection and perform several engine tests to make sure everything is functioning correctly. Once you're pleased with the results, they will pack up their tools and clean the area to ensure that no mess is left behind.
