Will a logbook service with you affect my new car warranty?

No. You can have your new car serviced by any qualified independent workshop. As long as the correct parts are used and your logbook is stamped, your manufacturer's warranty stays intact.

Do I need to book, or can I just drop in?

Please call ahead so we can set aside time for your car. Call us on (02) 4982 4565 to book a service or an inspection.

What is the difference between a pink slip and a blue slip?

An e-Safety check (pink slip) is for renewing rego on a registered vehicle. A blue slip (AUVIS) is for unregistered vehicles or re-registration. We are authorised for both.

What are your opening hours?

Monday to Friday, 8:00am to 5:00pm. We are closed weekends and public holidays.
