"I'm bringing my old Holden across here to Australia. Problem is, it's been sitting covered in my carport for the last eight years, not having been turned over once. I needed a mechanic to go around and get it running so I can get it onto the truck then boat to get it here. I found Peter on this site with close to 100% rating. He has been fantastic. Communicated will with my tenant, turned up when he said he would and got the job done promptly. Even sourced an HR radiator for mine that had rusted through. Better still, his pricing was really good. If you need a mechanic you can trust, then you can't go past Peter. 100% from me."

"Peter has been my mechanic for nearly 20 years. In that time he has worked on several different models of cars and vans. The latest is my Fiat Ducato and Peter has just replaced the cambelt . He did a great job at a sensible price.
Peter has a wealth of experience and has always got the job done no matter how big or small. And the best bit...he comes to you. Totally recommend."

"Lucky to have found Kiwi Mobile Mechanics. Contacted 3 mobile mechanics before them and no response after they have known that the problem is the starter motor which is not easy to find for my car model. I contacted Peter the night before and quickly responded and arrived early morning after. He had booking appointments but accepted despite his busy schedule. He was patient to look for a motor replacement and was able to replace the starter motor on the same day. Really happy with the service and definitely recommending Kiwi Mobile Mechanics."

The problem was fixed quickly and efficiently roadside, and the cost was very reasonable. Would use again if in Auckland and would highly recommend. Have already passed his name to friends and family in Auckland.. Thanks Andrew!!"

"Having my car die in my driveway - made me contact Andrew through this website. He phoned me back virtually straight away (it was a Sunday) and manage to fit me in to have a look at my car the following day. He came, had a quick look, when got the fuel pump and it was fixed within 3 hours. I could not have hoped for a better service. Andrew was professionally, polite and efficient. And the pricing was spot on. I can not recommend this service and Andrew more. I will certaintly be using this company for future servicing of the car - no longer need to worry about getting the car to the garage. Thank you so much - fantastic..

Unfortunately now I will have to go back to work! All good"

"It would be impossible to overdo my recommendation of this mechanic.
Andrew explained everything needed in detail and could have undertaken more work
on the car,,had he been so inclined, however, he felt this unecessary for the time being. His work is clean and tidy and his charges exceedingly reasonable , he is a very trustworthy and honest tradesman.
I would never use any other.

He turned up when he said, he phoned to make sure everything was ok. A fantastic service for a busy mum with school + preschool children and a part time job. Very approachable and honest. Very happy to recommend. Thanks Andrew"

"Volvo lover... was Holden fan before that.

Andy is First rate, he knows his stuff, and knows who to call if he gets stuck, like the problem he fixed for me.
I have a High performing Volvo, it's leaked a little oil, a job in any terms that's pricey, and involved to fix, thank you volvo,
Andy diagnosed the problem swiftly, and got straight to work on the issue. used all original manufacturer parts, problem was Volvo sent out a faulty part and i revisited the oil leak straight after Andy's work was done.
Not only did he come around straight away pull it apart, but got the new part in and got it running in my shed that same day. I believe i know a little about cars, by no way am i an expert, but have been able to sniff out dodgy mechanics in the past.

No extra charge!

THIS MECHANIC WENT OVER, ABOVE, AND BEYOND,

To make sure the car was fixed and i was mobile again Andy called me. our issue revisited again the following day, and again it was a Volvo faulty part and Andy dropped what he was doing, came around with in 30 min, was on the phone to the industry experts in his network, he systematically checked the process, replaced the part again and got me running straight away, just as it should be.

something i think any dodgy mechanic would have taken advantage of

my case was extremely rare, there was tonns of chatter on the web of this happening on my model of vehicle on occasions and Andy got it fixed.

HUGE THANK YOU ANDY. IF THERE WAS A SCORE OUT OF TEN FOR THIS MECHANIC, HIS SERVICE AND HIS COMPANY IT WOULD BE

50 OUT OF 10.

Andy Makes sure the job is done right, and through out, has put me (the client) first, through out the whole process. argued with the manufacture, and got my car running beautifully.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ANDY,
don't waist your time with others Andy is proven the best, had all the right tools, has the right knowledge, is a great guy, and when he hit a difficult solution kept working hard to find the answer and get it fixed.

I was test driving the car up and down my road, come back and theirs Andy, on his hands and knees cleaning the oil drops off my garage floor, AMAZING service.

cant say thank you enough"

We left NZ July 2013 and I've been very slack taking so long to do this review but I have finally done it!! We are returning to NZ to live again at xmas so I look forward to continuing to use Andrew for all my car servicing. I recommend Andrew to everyone I can!!"

I\'ve used Andrew\'s services a couple of times in the past and I wouldn\'t use anyone else now. He makes things simple to understand; I\'m not mechanically minded, but he explains things well and I\'m grateful for that. And he makes it easy to get the job done - I especially like that he can meet me at home or work, wherever and whenever suits me. Top class."

"Just outstanding. I can not say enough to family and friends about having Andrew as a mobile mechanic. This month my vehicle was not behaving well at all, first port of call - Andrew. Without any bother he was able to come to University and look at my car while I attended lectures. Unfortunately more work was needed so Andrew followed behind me to my place to make sure the car was ok. Just amazing!! At such short notice was able to work on the vehicle the next day and the was on the road. I can not recommend a mechanic that shows such respect and integrity not only to his work but to his clients. I highly recommend Andrew as a mobile mechanic."

I only use Automech now for all our family\'s mechanical work, and can\'t recommend the owner, Andrew\'s, excellent service and reasonable pricing to enough people. Thank you for the consistant superb work you\'ve done for us.
I always have a spare card to share, and absolutely no hesitation in recommending Automech."

"When my car overheated without warning 2 minutes from home on a Saturday, I was faced with the choice of a $120 tow or risking further damage by driving to a mechanic - either of which would have to be organised for Monday and would require time off work.
Having assumed that mobile mechanics were more expensive than the common garden variety I had never used one, but in this instance it made sense so I gave Andrew a bell at Automech and since then cannot recommend him enough.
His communication level is brilliant (even popping round when in the area before the job was due to introduce himself) he acts with absolute integrity, the job was completed quickly and the invoice left on my doorstep was well under his original estimate - which I thought was just brilliant. His labour rate is 20% less than my previous mechanic so get in touch with him before he puts it up :-)

Highly recommended A"
