Personal service which is hard to come by these days and knowledgeable advice that's trustworthy. My quote came back as the actual price I paid - another pleasant surprise. Will always go back to a place that offers that kind of service and will highly recommend to others. Keep doing what you're doing Rodney's Mechanical Service :)

Grant Mills - 5 stars
We were exceptionally pleased with the service from Rodney and his team. The effort they put into our car was absolutely huge and could not be under estimated. Persistent to locate difficult faults and incredibly methodical in their effort ... repairing much damage to both my fuel injectors and depollution system. My car is better than new I could not be happier with the outcome. Thank you again Rodney and team Susan and Grant Yarra Junction

I've been coming to this garage for about 20 years and my husband even longer. I have found all the staff to be knowledgeable and approachable. They give great advice, help me prioritise and never judge me about the state of my car or the lateness of my service ... Rodney puts me in the diary to ring me when it's time to come in again now - he knows me too well! I'm always recommending them to my friends and family and never buy a car without their advice. I really appreciate all they do and look forward to the next 20+ years together.

I'm greatful for all that worked on my car. They took it in unexpectedly from the tow truck and with full dedication worked on my Holden Captiva trying to get the problem solved. Eventually, days later it was rectified and l was so impressed by all that worked on it giving it the attention that was needed. It certainly was a tricky one. Thankyou again and l'm so releived that it was fixable. Rodney and team A+

Paul Curran - 5 stars
What is noted as wrong with your car is actually the case. No unforseen extras. Completed on time

Roderick Williamson - 5 stars
I brought the vehicle for a scheduled service only to receive a call the predrive had revealed a range of problems. I was promptly contacted with an explanation of what was required including costing. By then it was early afternoon but I was informed they could get the work done by end of day. I later learned mechanics were taken off other jobs to ensure completion of repairs that day. Sure enough at the agreed time I turned up to find all work completed. And a pleasant surprise. The final bill was less than the earlier indicated price. If you are looking for top class work at a responsible price this is where you should have your vehicle serviced.

Brl Crl Contracting - 5 stars

Adele Braun - 5 stars
Was kept well informed, had a phone call to say what needed to be done at the service, how much it would cost, and what to expect at the next service. Seemed very transparent about how long the service would take as well which I really appreciated. A much more personal & professional service than one of the 'major' car dealerships which I had been attending whilst my car was under warranty. Very happy to be back with Rodney's mechanical repairs!! Thanks guys :)

I can't rate Rodney and his team highly enough. For over 15 years Rodney's Mechanical have been servicing my cars and I do not buy a new car before having it checked out by the boys first.

Kessiah Goswell - 5 stars
Each time I take my car to Rodney's for a service it operates noticeably better afterwards, it feels and drives more smoothly. I also appreciate the myriad of other details they attend to such as adding cleaning fluid to the windscreen wiper liquid and that my car is always left clean - this last service they checked my tyres and I noticed someone had also polished and blackened the tyres, that was a nice touch.

Sue Martin - 5 stars

I recently had a problem with my Nissan Patrol diesel. After exploring all the usual suspects for the particular issue, Rodney & the boys systematically & methodically zoomed in on the culprits, some dodgy injectors & seals. They rectified the situation with some reco parts & saved me a considerable sum compared to new replacements. The Patrol is running better than ever with heaps more power. Along with my wife & son, we have had thee cars in care with Rodney for several years. I have always found them to be though & trustworthy & would recommend them to everyone. Geoff Stock.
