Intervals for car servicing are set out in your vehicle’s service manual. Depending on your make and model, servicing is usually required every 10-15,000km or 6 months. If you don’t travel far, you’ll need your car checked annually.
Mechanics are the most convenient way to get your car serviced because they come to you. And without the expense of workshop overheads, you’ll often pay less. The main downside is that on rare occasions, your mechanic may be unable to perform some less common services due to limited supplies and equipment at hand.
A mechanic can complete almost all the same mechanical repairs and maintenance jobs you’d get from a mechanic in a workshop. They can do anything from simple oil changes, through to log book servicing and roadworthy certificates. As long as they have the parts on hand and can do the work from a flat surface, they should be able to get the job done.
By requesting a mechanic near you on Airtasker, you’ll receive plenty of offers from qualified mechanics within minutes. This makes it easy to find the cheapest car mechanic near you that fits your budget.
The best way to find a skilled and reliable mechanic near you is to post your task on Airtasker. Outline what your car service or repair needs are, and you’ll start to hear from rated and reviewed mechanics near you within minutes.

What does a mechanic service usually include?
Mechanics are skilled in nearly all aspects of keeping your car maintained, serviced, and repaired, so it’s roadworthy and efficient to run. The exact process during your service will depend on how your mechanic prefers to work and the type of tasks they’re doing, like:
Minor service
This is the most basic engine service a mechanic provides, but it can make a huge difference in whether or not your car can operate efficiently. A minor service usually alternates with a major service, at around the 6-month mark. A mechanic near you can do minor services because your mechanic only needs a flat service to get the job done. They’ll unscrew the sump plug, allowing old oil to drain from your car. Then they’ll remove the old oil filter and replace with a new one that’s the right size for your vehicle. Your mechanic will dispose of your old filter and oil. They’ll also inspect other key components, like your battery, lights, air filters, and other fluids.
Log book servicing / major service
A major service or log book service involves a series of steps in line with your vehicle manufacturer’s service manual. It’ll include a combination of major and minor services, depending on the age of your car, or how many kilometres it’s travelled. Your service may include testing your lights, brakes, and battery. Then checking fluid levels, windscreen wipers, windows, mirrors, steering, suspension, radiator, fan belts, and tyre pressure. Finally, it may also include maintaining/replacing oil filters, hoses, belts, tyres, and wheel alignment. Your mechanic will finish off by stamping your logbook to record the services completed, which can help maintain your car’s resale value.
Roadworthy certificate or pink slip
A roadworthy certificate or pink slip is a specific vehicle check that’s conducted to ensure your car is in a roadworthy condition and can be operated safely. In some states, it’s required when selling a car or may be required each year to confirm your vehicle is safe for registration purposes. A mechanic will check off a list of predetermined items to verify that your car meets a minimum safety standard set out by your state government. They’ll focus on safety, checking things like tyres, brakes, steering, suspension, rust or damage, seatbelts, windows, lights, and your windscreen.
Major and minor repairs
Sometimes your car might need a little extra attention if you’ve had an accident, broken down, or your drive feels a bit different to normal. A car mechanic can perform minor and major repairs on most vehicles. They’ll use diagnostic equipment to locate the issue and decide on a course of action to get your car back on the road. If they don’t have the necessary spare parts, they may need to order them to finish off your repair and replace any faulty parts. Note that a mechanic service is usually limited to your car’s engine and electrics. It’s best to speak to a panel beater if you also have external body damage.

Aftermarket Head Unit + Camera Installation – Nissan Micra 2011 Ti

Craigieburn VIC 3064, Australia
1st Feb 2026
I’m looking to install an aftermarket head unit in my Nissan Micra 2011 Ti Automatic, along with reverse and front cameras. I have already purchased the Mekede Dudu7 head unit, as well as the cameras, fascia/frame, and all required wiring for installation. According to the manufacturer’s technical support, everything needed for the installation has been provided. However, I’m happy to consult and discuss further if any additional parts or requirements are identified during the process.
Great experience overall! He was very polite, professional, and easy to communicate with. The head unit and cameras were installed neatly, and he made the whole process smooth and genuinely fun. Highly recommended 👍
Ssangyong Replace oil cooler or replace oil filter assembly.
$10
Edmondson Park, New South Wales
31st Jan 2026
Hi I am looking for a SsangYong enthusiast or a licenced mechanic who has worked on Ssangyong D20DT engines before. This is the 4 or 5 Cylinder Mercedes Based Diesel engines found in older Ssangyong Actyons, Kyrons and the first or second generation Rexton. My car is a 2009 Ssangyong Actyon where the oil cooler has failed. I need either oil cooler or the entire oil filter housing removed and replaced. I have started halfway but i have injured my hand as it is quite difficult access and i do not have the correct tools so I may have stripped one or two bolts. If you have replaced the oil cooler or oil filter housing before on similar Ssangyongs, I would like you to help me. If you are mechanic and fixed similar issue in Ssangyongs before, I would like you to help me however, you must be licensed. There is no coolant in my car so it is not drivable at the movement. All I need is from you is that you come over and remove the oil cooler or oil filter housing and put it back with the new replacement parts. I will do the rest to get the car running again. I will provide all the replacement parts and gaskets. You provide all the tools to do the job. The car does not need to be able to start when you leave or complete the task, but if you remove any screws or parts to gain access to the cooler or oil filter housing, you must put it back before you leave. Thanks and do let me know if you can help. See below for the instructions from the factory manual. Price is negotiable.
Nice bloke, willing to go the extra mile to complete the task for you. thanks

I have new oil and filter but to complete the oil change I think the car needs to be lifted to get under car access. Under car access is required to remove the under engine cover, which will then give access to the engine sump plug. The oil filter is accessible from above. Can drive to you.
