Matt says the best thing about being a mechanic is working with his hands and finding solutions to difficult problems.

Jakob's Top Tip: Blown brake globes are a common reason for warning lights blinking on, so check that yours are working before you do anything else. If the brake light is the problem, its replacement will only be a few dollars, unlike replacing a major part.

Liam's Top Tip: Keep accurate records to ensure you don’t have unnecessary work performed on your car (and unnecessarily large service bills).

Stephen's Top Tip: Ensure your spare is checked at every service and replace it every five years to maintain the overallintegrity of the tyre. This will ensure it’s ready to go should you find yourself with a flat tyre.

Luke's Top Tip: Shop around for your service — a fixed-price service may not be the best deal.

Jaime's Top Tip: Make sure to get your engine oil changed every six months or 10,000 km to keep it running smoothly!

Ali's Top Tip: Stick to your maintenance schedule. If a mechanic recommends replacement parts before the recommended replacement schedule in your logbook, ask them why.

Corey's Top Tip: Not all services are created equal, so ensure you know exactly what you’re getting upfront, and ensure that lines up with your logbook and when your major parts need replacing.
