Soooo, I need an 2024 Suzuki Jimny (3880 kms) engine check only down. The car is a write off due to a tree falling on it. However the engine, has not been written off. I need someone to check as much as they can given the car doesn’t move, but does start up. I’m confident the engine is perfectly fine, but just want the added peace of mind. Appreciate by checking it doesn’t guarantee, but I’d much prefer a mechanic to check too. Car is located at a Wreckers in Wollawong 4110, Learoyd Road. I will meet you there as well.

Jamie did a pre purchase inspection on an engine for me. He was early, including being accomodating and flexible with time. Child engine over as much as he could, even tried to help me negotiate with the seller!!! Legend!!!
