Convenient fault finding

Car diagnostics at home in Melbourne

A dashboard warning light can be worrying, particularly when you do not know whether it is safe to keep driving. Calling a mobile auto mechanic allows the issue to be assessed where the car is parked, rather than risking a drive to a workshop.

Our mechanic can use professional diagnostic equipment alongside a hands-on inspection to investigate engine, electrical, starting, charging and other vehicle faults. Once the cause has been assessed, we explain the findings in plain language and outline the available repair options.

Diagnostics are also useful for intermittent problems such as difficult starting, stalling, unusual noises, poor performance or recurring warning lights. When you call, describe exactly when the fault occurs so we can prepare for the appointment.

What to tell us when you call

  • Your vehicle make, model and approximate year
  • Your Melbourne suburb and where the vehicle is parked
  • What happened and whether the car starts or drives
  • Any warning lights, noises, leaks or recent repairs

Preparing for your appointment

What does a mechanic need at your home?

A mobile auto mechanic can work from a driveway, private car park or other safe, accessible location. When you book, let us know where the car is located and describe the available space.

For the best result, keep the vehicle accessible and have the keys available. If the car is in an apartment or shared car park, check whether there is enough room for the mechanic to safely inspect and work on it.

A safe, level working area

A driveway or suitable parking area helps the mechanic work safely and efficiently.

Access to the vehicle

Make sure the vehicle can be accessed and, where possible, have the keys ready.

Useful vehicle information

The service history, dashboard messages and details of recent symptoms can help with diagnosis.
