You have probably driven past us already

Newlands Road is the run between Sydney Road and the Merri Creek parklands, and we are on it at number 1/87. Turn off Sydney Road onto Newlands Road and look for the service board out the front listing servicing, diagnostics, brakes and tyres, with the VACC member sign beside it. Inside the door there is a Castrol partner banner and a lounge with seating, which is where you wait if the job is a short one.

If you have been wondering whether something is worth bringing in, ring and describe it rather than booking blind. A noise you can put into words over the phone usually tells us which job to put the car down for.

Warranty servicing without the trip to a dealer

Logbook servicing is the backbone of the week. The car is serviced to the schedule the manufacturer set, with the oil grade and filters that specification calls for, the book is stamped, and the invoice itemises every part used. That record is what protects a new car warranty.

The rest is mechanical repair: the noise that started last week, the leak on the driveway, the light that came on halfway up Sydney Road. We diagnose it first and tell you what it will take before anything comes apart.

Drop the car and walk home

If you live close enough to walk home after dropping the car off, say so when you book and we will work to that. It is the one real advantage of using the workshop in your own suburb rather than driving somewhere across town and sitting there. Tell us whether you want a call the moment the car is finished or at the end of the day, and we will do it that way.

Bring the logbook and know the kilometres

Those two decide which interval is due and what it costs, so have them ready when you ring. If your car came without a printed book, say so and we will tell you how the service gets recorded. If you have been going to a dealer and want to keep the warranty intact, say that too and we will service it to the same schedule and record it the same way.

Common questions

Are you actually in Coburg North, or just nearby?
In Coburg North itself, at 1/87 Newlands Road, with the hoists and the workshop on site. The address on the sign is the address you drive to, and the work is booked onto the hoists in that building rather than at a depot somewhere else.
Will servicing here affect my new car warranty?
No. You can have a new car serviced by any qualified workshop, as long as the work follows the manufacturer's schedule and the parts and oils meet the specification. We service to that schedule, stamp the book and itemise the invoice, so you hold the evidence if the warranty is ever queried.
Do you work on my make?
We take on every make on the road. European and prestige work is a large part of the week, alongside Japanese, Korean and Chinese cars. If you are not sure what yours is due for, ring with the model and the year and we will tell you what the schedule asks for at that mileage before you commit to a day.
Can I call in without an appointment?
Ring first. The workshop runs to a booked schedule, so a car that turns up unannounced usually waits. If it is urgent, a flat battery or a tyre going down, call the mobile and we will tell you straight away whether we can fit you in that day.

You are around the corner. Book a day and walk home afterwards.
