Service areas
Mechanic and Car Repairs,
Brisbane South
Sunnybank, Runcorn, Robertson and the suburbs around them are an easy run up Beaudesert Road or across on Kessels Road to our workshop at 2 Baldock St, Moorooka. We do servicing, brakes, tyres, safety certificates, diagnostics and full smash repair from that one building.
Motorway kilometres
Highway running wears
a car differently.
Highway running is comparatively easy on brakes but harder on tyres, wheel alignment and the cooling system. Sustained speed in a Brisbane summer asks a lot more of a radiator and hoses than a suburban trip ever does.
Even wear across four tyres at 80,000km is normal. Uneven wear or a car that pulls on a straight stretch of the M1 usually means alignment rather than tyres — and it is cheaper to fix at that point than after you have worn out a set.
Check my alignmentThe kilometres pile up faster than the calendar
Someone doing an Eight Mile Plains to CBD commute five days a week will hit a service interval on distance long before twelve months is up. Go by the logbook figure.
Short-trip drivers
Someone doing school runs around Sunnybank Hills will hit the service interval on time with barely any kilometres. Oil ages sitting still. Brake fluid absorbs moisture whether the car moves or not.

Common questions
FAQ — Brisbane South
How far is Moorooka from Sunnybank?
It is an easy run across Kessels Road and up Beaudesert Road. Parking is on site, so the drive is the whole trip.
What is the best way in from Runcorn or Eight Mile Plains?
Most people come across Kessels Road, or up Beaudesert Road if they are already on it. Both are straightforward outside peak.
Does the mobile service come to Sunnybank and Mount Gravatt?
Yes. The van covers the Brisbane southside including Sunnybank and Mount Gravatt, for servicing, brakes, batteries, pre-purchase inspections and safety certificates.
Can I get the car back the same day?
Usually, for a service. Tell us when you book if you need it back by a set time and we will say honestly whether that works.
How often should I be servicing if I drive the M1 every day?
On distance rather than time. High kilometre drivers usually hit the interval well inside twelve months, so go by the logbook figure.
Do you do wheel alignment and tyres?
Yes, both, and we will tell you whether the wear you are seeing is a tyre problem or an alignment problem before you spend money on rubber.
Do you work on 4WDs and utes?
Yes. All makes and models, including European, diesel, 4WD, fleet, commercial, hybrid and electric.
Do you handle insurance repairs?
Yes, with all major Australian insurers. In most cases you can choose your own repairer rather than take the one your insurer suggests.
How do I pay?
All major cards and cash.
