Mechanic - change a starter motor - Jeep Grande C

$175

I was so impressed by Mitchell’s professionalism, skill and knowledge. No He accommodated his schedule for me to perform some mechanical tasks on my dead and badly wired car which was far from home. Not only did he complete what was asked in the task he went above and beyond to correct the previous mechanics mistakes, explain what the issue was and how he rectified it, provided recommendations for a permanent solution and ran additional tests to make sure I could be on my way. If you’re looking for someone reliable who will absolutely get the job done, he is your guy. Absolute legend.

Mechanic to install a battery

$50

Such a legend! I had a mechanic tell me I needed to spend $$$ to get things fixed in my car- Jerry took one look and assured me that this was not the case. Fixed up my coolant leak for next to nothing and quoted me more than fair prices for some scratch/buff work. Can not recommend highly enough. Same day service was a bonus!

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.

I have purchased a 2007 Kawasaki Versys, 50kkm for a good price, it starts fine and runs well, a bit jolty on the clutch and need a bit of work done to get it up to scratch. I'm keen on learning to do things myself however for a general assessment of what needs done etc. I'm looking for an experienced mechanic who can help me write out a list of what needs replaced, what needs fixed/serviced etc. As an example, the indicator button is a bit on-off, is it in need of a good clean or better replacing it. I can come to your location if not too far also. I basically need a plan of action and an idea of costs to get it running and functioning as well as possible.
