Car pre purchase inspection by mechanic

Pre-Purchase Inspection for 2017 Kia Cerato ​I'm looking for a reliable and experienced mechanic to arrange a pre-purchase inspection of a 2017 Kia Cerato Auto with 84,000kms. ​The goal is to provide a detailed, unbiased report on the vehicle's condition. ​The mechanic must inspect and report on the following: ​Engine & Transmission: Check for any leaks (oil, coolant), listen for unusual noises, and confirm that the transmission shifts smoothly and correctly. ​Brakes: Inspect the condition of the brake pads and rotors, and check the brake fluid level. ​Suspension & Steering: Look for worn components like shocks, struts, and bushings, and check for any play in the steering. ​Body & Exterior: Examine the car's body for any signs of previous accident damage, rust, or dents. Check for consistent paintwork and panel gaps. ​Tyres: Measure the tread depth and check for uneven wear, which could indicate alignment issues. ​Electrical Systems: Confirm that all lights (interior and exterior), air conditioning, power windows, and other electronics are in working order. ​Road Test: The mechanic must perform a road test to assess the car’s overall performance, handling, and to listen for any abnormal sounds or vibrations. Check service history. Flag any issues. Vehicle is in Hawker ACT. Inspection and report by tomorrow.

Fantastic service!! Thanks so much for the pre purchase inspection. Saved us buying a lemon car. Will use again.

Mechanic visit for minor work/s

$40

Chisholm ACT, Australia

20th Aug 2025

Hi, I need a mechanic to come and assist with a couple of smaller jobs. This post is for a site visit. 1. Kia sedan door opening cord doesn't work. Have the replacement and clips but my friend who was going to fix it is unable to manhandle whatever component is needed to replace. 2. Bought a trailer with one of those manual hand break things. I think that the hand break is loose as its a bit floppy. Need a mechanic to come over and fix these items and maybe check the trailer over to fix or advise on other repairs. This post is for a site visit.

Install Car Head Unit and Reverse Camera

$150

Greenway ACT, Australia

5th May 2025

I have a 2012 VW GTI and looking to replace the old (original) head unit with a GT Zone MK6 and compatible GT Zone reverse camera (see pics). The head unit should be a simple plug and play but the wiring for the reverse camera will need to be fitted properly with their 6m cable provided.

Very helpful and easy going guy - fully capable and a very easy transaction. He did a high quality job of installing my reverse camera on my GTI in an efficient and professional manner.
