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.

Check my cars oil pump

$200

Clear Island Waters QLD, Australia

26th Jan 2025

Hi. I am needing a certified mobile mechanic to inspect my 2009 dodge caliber as the cars red oil lamp light has begun flashing and beeping every two seconds when it is being driven. From what I've read online, odds are a 50% chance it's the oil pressure sensor (dirty/blocked/faulty etc), and 50% chance it’s a fault with the oil pump - if it is the oil pump I don’t want to drive it anywhere due to the risk and danger involved. This is why I’d be keen to have someone come to my place to inspect and run the test it to see exactly what it is that needs fixing.

Motor Bike mechanic

$125

Arundel, Queensland

23rd Jan 2025

It's a cfmoto 150 road bike and it stopped running few weeks ago until then I was using it most of the days to work. when it did not start, I thought battery was gone and replaced it but still it did not start. I checked the voltage levels at starting relay and starting motor and both are getting the voltage from the battery. when I press the start switch sometimes the relay is making a clicking noise sometimes its not. Now what I think is either the relay is gone or the spark plug is bad. I am looking for any help to troubleshoot it. Thanks
