What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Honesty and personal attention stand out in the feedback customers leave about this North Melbourne workshop. Reviewers often mention being kept informed while work is under way, with problems talked through plainly and photographs shown at collection, and quotes supplied beforehand were honoured without change. Something that features in review after review is the care shown by TJ and Mani, named for their friendly and responsible manner; one customer recalls a staff member driving out to jump-start a stranded car before replacing the battery.

The work itself covers logbook servicing on vehicles such as a Volkswagen Golf, major services, tyre fitting, battery replacement, water pump renewal and diagnosis of lighting faults. More than one customer describes the car driving better after the visit, and minor developing issues being flagged for the next service. Charges are considered reasonable and in line with servicing elsewhere, with no inflated billing. The team's ability to return a vehicle to full serviceability quickly is noted more than once, along with the ease of arranging follow-up work. Many have become regulars, with whole families bringing their cars in for servicing and repairs.

This was the second time I bought my car back to Ultra Tune in North Melbourne. TJ is fantastic, personable and thorough. He explains exactly what is wrong with your car and either shows you the car's internals or diagrams so you understand how it is supposed to work. I really like this about the service – it's an opportunity to learn and be informed about what is wrong, why it needs fixing and how it was/will be fixed. Also, TJ has an emphasis on one diagnostic step at a time and fixes only what the car needs - nothing more, nothing less. I recommend TJ and Ultra Tune in North Melbourne without hesitation. Thanks for making car maintenance a good experience :D

First logbook service was done here for my vw golf, recommended by my previous service station which has been permanently closed. The service here was very good,. After the service, the car driving performance is as good as that from my previous provider. T J is a very friendly, honest and helpful guy. Will keep using it. Recently the water pump was changed at this service centre. T. J. was very friendly and responsible. The service was done strictly following the process. I am once again happy with it.
