Frequently Asked Questions

Car mechanics perform regular maintenance and routine checks, identify issues, diagnose malfunctioning parts, and recommend repairs. This is a generalized view of what a mechanic does, which requires skill and training to properly complete. A mechanic is trained to follow specific protocols and measures to ensure the work is done safely.
While there are several different ways to find a car mechanic who is reliable and trustworthy, one of the most effective is to ask for recommendations from a friend or family member. Read online reviews and check out their rating with customer satisfaction, and give them a call to get a feel of their customer service. A trustworthy mechanic is honest and won’t try to upsell you on services you don’t need. Be sure to go to an auto shop that offers guarantees or a warranty on their repairs. This will tell you that they’re confident in their skill and give you peace of mind if you run into any issues.

We typically recommend car owners have their vehicles serviced every year or every 20,000km, whichever comes first. However, there are a lot of factors that come into play with a car service. Of course, you’ll want to bring your car in for repairs as soon as possible if you notice any potential issues. The amount of maintenance you’ll need per year also depends on vehicle use and driver habit. Always refer to your vehicle’s owner manual for guidance.

You know your car best and how it drives on the road. If you notice any changes, even minor ones, it’s important to schedule a service to get it checked out right away. The seemingly small details, like a slight vibration in your steering wheel or your car taking longer than usual to heat up, can be an indicator of a more significant issue to come. It’s always in your best interest to prevent more costly repairs by tackling these minor problems at the first sign.
This depends on the problem or maintenance at hand. If it’s a routine interim service involving an oil and filter change, tire inspection, and fluid top-ups, it will likely take anywhere from an hour to an hour and a half. If your car is in for a full service, it can take up to 3 hours. A major service is extremely thorough and ensures that your vehicle is in top working condition.
