Mechanic service

Sydney NSW, Australia

5th Jun 2026

Been noticing a trend on here lately that's honestly a bit concerning — jobs getting quoted at $50, $60, sometimes less, for work that should realistically be $150–200 minimum. I get it, everyone's trying to get work. But when we race to the bottom on price, we're not just undercutting each other — we're telling customers that a trained mechanic's time is worth less than a tradie doing a quote just to show up. Think about it: insurance, tools, travel, experience, liability. That $60 quote doesn't cover any of it properly. And then customers start expecting that rate as the norm. Here's what gets me — scroll through Airtasker and you'll see movers charging $35 per 15 minutes. No shade to them at all, moving is hard work. But they've got endless demand and they're holding their rate. We've got way less volume of jobs on here, and somehow we're charging less? That doesn't add up. This isn't about overcharging anyone. Rates will always vary depending on the job, location, complexity — that's fair. But there's a difference between pricing smart and pricing yourself into the ground. We should be able to charge a fair amount for skilled work. If we don't value our own time, no one else will. Curious what other mechanics think — are you holding your rates or feeling the pressure to drop?

Oil leak fix on my car

2017 Ford Ranger 2.2L Diesel – Oil Leak Diagnosis & Repair Looking for an experienced mechanic to diagnose and repair an oil leak on my 2017 Ford Ranger 2.2 Hi-Rider Auto diesel. The vehicle recently had work done, including replacement of a pump/hose area, but the car is still leaking oil. One mechanic mentioned it could possibly be related to the timing cover/timing case area, while another mechanic suggested it may be the head cover gasket / rocker cover area. I want a proper inspection and honest diagnosis before replacing unnecessary parts.
