Very professional installation. Knew his shit thats for sure. Soon as he rocked up he know where he was routing what, how and what to take off. Mind you I got my moneys worth when he had to try and find the Bluetooth module for my car, which he hadn't had before. Good learning opportunity.

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.

Small engine mechanic or diagnostician
$10
St Albans VIC 3021, Australia
24th Oct 2025
G'day. I am looking for someone to help diagnose and either tune the carburetor or repair the fuel system on my mini jeep. It is brand new. Several basic mods done myself which shouldn't have affected it running (larger shocks, larger fuel tank and a custom paint scheme). Worked for a short five minute dry run. Heard backfiring. Went for a longer run. No backfire, but eventually sputtered and stopped after about 500m. Spark plug indicates too much fuel maybe, but my mixture and idle adjustment skills are shocking. I managed to adjust it correctly and got it running one arvo without stalling out. Started a day or two later, but it spat the dummy again. The guy at the shop I bought from is not a mechanic and can't help with the diagnosis. The carburetor is a PZ22. Engine Zongshen air cooled 150cc.

Diagnose issue with 2009 Jeep Wrangler CRD. Not starting - recent diagnostic showed low fuel pressure. No fault codes. Potentially high pressure fuel pump, lift pump or injectors? Hoping for a quote so I can decide if it’s worth fixing. Thanks
