Servicing · in your driveway or at work
A proper logbook service, done where the car is.
I'm Jackson, a licensed mechanic based in Guildford. I bring the right oil and filters for your car, do the service to the manufacturer's schedule in your driveway or your work car park, look at the brakes, tyres and battery while I'm under there, and fill in the book. You don't drop the car anywhere, you don't wait in a waiting room, and you see the old oil and the old filter.
Western Sydney, the Hills and the Inner West most days, the rest of Sydney too. Any hour I'm not already on a job. Tell me the car and the kilometres on the phone and I give you the price before I leave.

What Sydney says
Car wouldn’t start in Merrylands and I was stuck. Jackson arrived quickly and got me back on the road straight away. Best mobile battery service around this area.
Battery died at the servo in Parramatta, Jackson answered straight away and came out fast. New battery fitted on the spot, no stress.
Booked Jackson after my car struggled to start two mornings in a row. He came to my house in Granville, tested the old battery and fitted a new one before it left me stranded.
Jackson came and replaced my battery in Guildford for a great price, he was professional and great.
What you get
Two kinds of service, and I tell you which one you're due for
Tell me the car and the kilometres and I read the schedule for your car. Some services are an oil change and a look over. Some are the bigger ones with filters, plugs and fluids. You pay for the one the book says, not the dearest one.
Logbook service
Everything the manufacturer's schedule lists for your kilometres, with oil and parts that meet their spec. Book filled in. Done this way, your new-car warranty stays intact.
Oil change and check over
For cars out of warranty or between the big ones. Right grade of oil, new filter, sump plug washer, then a look at the brakes, tyres, belts, hoses, lights and battery so nothing surprises you.
Battery, brakes, tyres
Battery load-tested, pads measured, tyre wear and pressures checked, fluids topped up. If something needs doing I tell you the price and you decide. Nothing gets replaced because I was there.
Scan for stored faults
I plug the scan tool in at every service and read what the car has logged since the last one. A code that hasn't lit the dash yet is cheaper to deal with now.
How it goes
Start to finish
About an hour to an hour and a half in a driveway for most cars. Give me flat ground and room to get stands under it.
You ring me
Tell me the car, the kilometres, and roughly when it was last serviced. I tell you what service it's due for, what that costs for your car, and a day and time.
I come to the car
Driveway, garage or work car park. I bring the oil, the filters and the parts for your car, stands, and a drain pan. The old oil and the old filter go with me for proper disposal.
Done in about an hour
Book filled in, a tax invoice, and a straight word on anything I saw that's due next time. No upsell on the spot.
Being straight with you
What a driveway service can't be
A few cars need the car in the air for the service to be done properly, usually Euro cars with underbody trays and the ones where the filter lives somewhere stupid. Tell me the car on the phone and I'll tell you whether it's a driveway job. Anything that needs a hoist for hours needs a workshop, and I say so before I take your money.
Where I go
Western Sydney, the Hills, the Inner West, and the rest of Sydney
Times are Google Maps off-peak from my base in Guildford, so add some in peak hour. Services any hour I'm not already on a job. I just need flat ground and a bit of room.
Home patch, same as the batteries:

The quickest way to a price
Tell me what it's doing
Ring and tell me the car, the suburb and what it's doing. You get what it sounds like and the price for your car before I leave. Can't talk right now? Text me those three things and I'll text you back.
Any hour I'm not on a job. Same price day or night.
