Eltham Motors

"Came here due to a recommendation from Battery world about a possible parasitic draw and a seperate coolant leak. After leaving the car at the shop for the entire day he wasn’t able to find the electrical issue and said the coolant reservoir had a hole in it but recommended I return to further inspect. The car’s passenger seat was left disfigured as he needed to access the battery underneath the seat but couldn’t reconfigure the panels at the bottom of the chair back. I paid over $200 and all I was really left with a dismantled passenger seat and more confusion. I had issues ever returning to the shop as the mechanic went MIA and then made contact at a later date by which point the vehicle was already undergoing works elsewhere. I received a text message from the business in January claiming my service was due in February? Although I had my service with Audi last year and it wasn’t due until July of this year."

"Picked the car up from Eltham Motors this morning and feels like a brand new car. Had to call Pat and ask him if he upgraded it. Not only did they do a great job but they had a service vehicle for me to use while the car was in the shop. Couldnt recommend the team any more highly."

"For many years a friend has serviced our cars at his workshop, but he left the industry and we wanted to shop local. This business is well recommended on Facebook so I gave them a go. My first two experiences were decent. Some difficult suspension work was done without fuss at a reasonable price, and then a roadworthy for a recently purchased car also went through with no problems. When I was then obtaining a second roadworthy for the car we were selling, I was disappointed with the experience. Now one mechanic's view of what work needs doing differs to another's and I have to accept that for what it is. The brake pads for instance exceeded vicroads guidance of minimum requirements, but they were skinny so not an unreasonable call to make. But to be quoted $88 to replace two stop light globes - which is $7 worth of globes and the removal and replacement of 4 screws and at worst 10mins of labour. Or $98 to check an alleged "check engine light" issue with a scan tool - noting the car had never had a the light come on before and had no history retained when checked? Well.. I will let you the reader judge for yourself. Plenty of good reviews so perhaps it was a bad day."

"THANK YOU! Patrick and the team at Eltham motors! My window got badly stuck open, I took the car in and they put the window back into place and disabled it so I could still use the car, while they ordered the part that needed replacing. When the part arrived they replaced the window regulator on the spot while I waited, and they showed me why and how the old one failed. Passionate & HONEST Mechanic's - Highly Recommended!"
