Testimonials
What Our Customers Say
Absolute magicians here. Took my car to 3 different mechanics who couldn't diagnose and thus fix an issue I was having with my Ford Fiesta. I gave up after the 3rd and just put up with it for quite some time. Brought my car here on a whim — they noticed it was running a little rough, did some diagnostic testing and found the problem. The bill only came to $150. I feel like this is the definition of excellent customer service, they went above and beyond, didn't try to rip me off and had the issue fixed promptly without a fuss. Very happy and grateful customer here.
North Geelong Automotive provided an exceptional experience! Their team was incredibly honest, fair, and a pleasure to work with. They offered transparent pricing, thorough service, and genuine care for my vehicle. Highly recommend for anyone seeking reliable and friendly automotive care in Geelong.
Starter motor went in my Landcruiser, 300km from home. North Geelong Automotive fitted me in the next day and got me on my way. Didn't rip me off and good people to deal with. Highly recommend.
My husband and I could not rate North Geelong Automotive Services more highly if we tried. Hilary kindly stayed back on a Saturday to thoroughly inspect our vehicle and address its recent deficits. He was incredibly diligent in his work, and his services were very reasonably priced. Its just a shame we do not live in the area — we would absolutely be transferring to North Geelong Automotive services if we could!
Driving to Geelong from the other side of the bay on a Saturday morning I ended up having the fuel filter light coming up on my dash. Hilary accepted to take my car in and drain and change the filter on top of his other commitments that day. The service was good, I was grateful I found somebody who cared and was willing to help. The whole thing cost me $150 which was a fair price. Thank you for the last minute Saturday morning help Hilary, that's been very much appreciated.
The crew at North Geelong Automotive were amazing! They got my car in as soon as possible as it was an urgent matter and fixed my car the same day of it being booked in. They were fast and efficient, would highly recommend going here.
North Geelong Automotive were absolutely fantastic. I had my car towed into their workshop and they immediately started diagnosing my car for faults. They were extremely informative on what discoveries they made and also let me know if anything was going to take longer or cost more. I'll definitely be coming back to North Geelong Automotive in the future.
Hilary went out of his way to have my 2011 VW Jetta repaired by replacing the cracked brake vacuum pipes for my daughter. Much appreciated. Wouldn't hesitate recommending them.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a mechanic cost in Geelong?
The cost of a mechanic in Geelong varies depending on the type of service or repair your vehicle needs. A basic oil and filter service typically starts from around $120–$180, while a logbook service can range from $200–$400 depending on your vehicle's make, model, and age. More complex repairs such as brake replacements, suspension work, or diagnostics will be priced based on parts and labour required. At North Geelong Automotive, we provide a clear, upfront quote before any work begins, so you always know exactly what you're paying for with no hidden fees.
What types of vehicles do you service at North Geelong Automotive?
Our qualified mechanics in Geelong service a wide range of vehicles including passenger cars, SUVs, 4WDs, light commercial vehicles, and European makes. Whether you drive a Toyota, Mazda, Ford, Holden, Hyundai, Volkswagen, BMW or anything in between, our team has the experience and equipment to handle it. We work on both petrol and diesel vehicles and are equipped for logbook servicing on newer models to ensure your manufacturer warranty remains valid. If you're unsure whether we service your vehicle, give us a call on (03) 5278 8595 and we'll confirm straight away.
How often should I get my car serviced by a mechanic in Geelong?
As a general rule, most vehicles should be seen by a mechanic in Geelong every 10,000–15,000 kilometres or every 6–12 months, whichever comes first. However, the right interval for your car depends on its make, model, age, and how you drive it. Newer vehicles will have specific logbook servicing intervals set by the manufacturer, and sticking to these is important for maintaining your warranty. Older vehicles or those used for towing, off-road driving, or high-kilometre work may need more frequent attention. If you're unsure, the team at North Geelong Automotive can check your logbook and recommend the right service schedule for your vehicle.
What happens if my car needs extra work during a service?
If our mechanics discover additional issues with your vehicle during a service, we will always contact you before carrying out any extra work. We'll explain clearly what we've found, why it needs attention, and provide a written quote for the additional repairs so you can make an informed decision. We never carry out work without your approval, that's a promise. In some cases we may flag items as "monitor and review" if they're not urgent, giving you the option to address them at your next visit. At North Geelong Automotive, transparent communication is at the heart of everything we do, and we believe keeping you informed is just as important as keeping your car running smoothly.
Can you diagnose my car if the warning light is on but it seems to be driving fine?
Absolutely, and we strongly recommend you don't ignore a warning light even if your car appears to be driving normally. Modern vehicles are equipped with onboard diagnostic systems that detect issues before they become serious problems, and a warning light is your car's way of telling you something needs attention. Our mechanics in Geelong use advanced diagnostic equipment to connect to your vehicle's computer, read the fault codes, and identify exactly what's triggering the light. Common causes include oxygen sensor faults, emissions issues, low oil pressure, or early transmission warnings, many of which show no obvious symptoms initially but can lead to costly repairs if left unchecked. Book a diagnostic check at North Geelong Automotive and we'll get to the bottom of it quickly.
