Our advice

A guide only – the only way to be sure is a proper diagnostic check (and ours is free).

  1. 1

    Step 1

    WhatsApp, call or book

    Book online, phone or WhatsApp 062 981 9506 – a photo of the dashboard or a voice note of the noise helps.

  2. 2

    Step 2

    Free diagnostics

    Drop the car off or wait with us. We scan it, test it and find the real fault – at no charge.

  3. 3

    Step 3

    Obligation-free quote

    An itemised PDF quote arrives on WhatsApp or email. No work starts until you say yes.

  4. 4

    Step 4

    Fixed & road-tested

    Repaired, road-tested and handed back with a clear invoice and the old parts if you want them.

Good to know

Questions, answered.

Still not sure?

Send us a message – we are happy to talk you through it before you book.

No – we work on all makes of vehicles. Mercedes-Benz is our speciality and we know them inside out, but Toyota, VW, Ford, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and every other make is welcome, from hatchbacks to bakkies and SUVs.

Yes. We scan the car, look at the fault and give you an obligation-free quotation. You only pay if you approve the repair.

Our labour rate is R450 per hour – well below dealer rates – and every quote shows parts and labour separately so you can see exactly what you are paying for.

R450 for a front set and R350 for a rear set, done in-house on our own lathe. We first measure the discs – if they are below the minimum thickness, skimming is not safe and we will quote new discs instead.

An in-house aircon regas is R450. If the system will not hold a vacuum there is a leak, and we will show you the options before refilling.
