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.

Help me change the oil in my car
$50
Palm Beach QLD, Australia
19th Apr 2025
I’m looking for someon to give me a hand with changing the oil in my 2007 Toyota Corolla Ascent. I’ve already got the oil and parts ready to go - just need someone to walk me through the process so I can learn how to do it properly. This’ll be my first time, so I'd like you to show me the ropes. Just want to make sure I’m not flying blind and doing it right.
Hired Chris to walk me through my first-ever oil change and he was brilliant. Showed up within 10 minutes of booking, guided me through each step clearly, and shared heaps of tips I wouldn’t have picked up on my own. Super friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole thing way easier than expected. Highly recommend if you want someone who knows their stuff and is happy to teach!

Need a qualified mechanics opinion
$40
Coopers Plains, Queensland
28th Feb 2025
My Audi A5 09 Quattro Coupe TFSI 8 has been off the road for over a year now. I have had the coil packs and plugs replaced, the rocker cover gasket, then it was still not quite right and throwing some codes so I took it to a mechanic. My car has been there since May. He has changed the coils packs and plugs, rocker cover gasket, catalytic converter and said it was running fine to pick it up. It was still running like crap. So I put if on a trailer and took it back. He said I needed a new battery so he could read the codes. I know that’s bullshit. So I replaced the battery and now he tells me its needs a new alternator. There were no problems with alternator before.I’m at my wits end, I’m homeless with a young daughter and he just keeps talking shit. He has left my car out in the rain b4 the window was repaired and the keys were in it not just once but twice. I jump started it. Could have stolen it…it’s a joke. When he said it was good to go it was still like it was running on 3 cylinders. I need help please.
Nicolas is a great guy, patient and easy to talk to and at least listens to what the customer has to say. Highly recommend.
