Choosing mechanics in Preston

Mechanics for car servicing, logbook servicing, brakes and clutches, exhausts, batteries, diagnostics and vehicle inspections. Mechanics Directory lists 102 mechanics in Preston VIC. Listings show the services each business offers, and a rating where there is one.

What to check before you book

Getting started

  1. Describe the job. Your vehicle's make, model and year, what's wrong or what it needs, and when you need it done.
  2. Shortlist two or three. Use the filters above to narrow this page by website.
  3. Compare quotes. Or send one request and we'll match it with up to 3 mechanics.
  4. Agree in writing. Confirm the price, what's included and when the vehicle will be ready before work begins.

Frequently asked questions

How do I choose between mechanics in Preston?

Compare two or three. Read recent reviews, check they work on your make, and ask for a written quote for parts and labour. Ask them to call you before doing anything that isn't on the quote. A business that is owner verified on Mechanics Directory has confirmed it runs the listing.

How much does a car service cost in Preston?

It depends on your car, which service is due on the logbook schedule, and the parts and fluids it needs. Many workshops charge a set price for a logbook service and an hourly rate for diagnosis and repairs. Asking two or three local mechanics for a written quote is the quickest way to see the going rate in Preston.

Do mechanics need to be licensed?

Licensing depends on the work and the state. Roadworthy, safety and pink slip inspections can only be done by testers or stations the state has authorised, and anyone who handles R134a, the air conditioning gas in many cars, needs an ARC refrigerant handling licence. In Victoria, ask the business which qualifications and licences apply to your job. An LMCT number is a motor car trader's licence: it covers dealing in cars, not repair work. Listings marked "Credentials listed" show a licence, accreditation or membership on the business's profile. We don't check it, so confirm it with whoever issued it.

Can any mechanic do a roadworthy, safety certificate or pink slip?

No. Only testers or stations the state has authorised can do these inspections, and the rules on when you need one differ by state. A roadworthy or safety inspection checks safety items; it is not a full mechanical inspection, so book a separate inspection if you're buying a used vehicle. In Victoria, a roadworthy certificate is needed when you sell a car, re-register it or clear some defect notices, and only a licensed vehicle tester can issue one. It is current for 30 days.

Will an independent mechanic void my new car warranty?

Not just because they aren't the dealer. Your consumer guarantee rights under the Australian Consumer Law apply whoever services or repairs the car. A manufacturer's warranty typically lets you choose your own repairer as long as the manufacturer's maintenance and servicing standards are met, but read its conditions: some require repairs claimed under the warranty to go back to their dealers. Keep the stamped logbook or the digital service record and the receipts.

What does "serves this area" mean?

Some businesses are based in a nearby suburb but cover this area, including mobile mechanics and towing services that come to you. On suburb pages we list businesses based in the suburb first, then the ones that say they serve it.

How do free quotes work?

Tell us about the job once. We match your request with up to 3 mechanics near you. A business on a paid plan here gets it with your name and contact details and can contact you directly. A business on the free plan sees the job and your suburb but not your details, so it can't contact you unless it upgrades. A business that hasn't claimed its listing sees your request only once it claims. After you send, we tell you which applies to each business. It's free and there's no obligation.
