Auto repair in Dunedin

“Super fast and amazing customer service, highly recommend!”

“While on vacation, our rental car had a flat. The car company told us to get the tire repaired at Bridgestone Central Dunedin. We were concerned that we might spend too much of our holiday waiting for repairs, but no worries! Ricky Campbell had a new tire on and air pressure checked in all 4 in less than 20 minutes, and had us back on holiday before we knew it. Thank you for quick, efficient, and friendly service!”

“Warren and the team are absolutely fantastic, I have been using their services for nearly 5 years now and have always had a wonderful experience. They have been very honest with me about work required, cost and benefit of getting same done. I have been able to trust that the work being done is necessary and being done to a high standard. They are great at communicating and keeping you up to date with the work being completed. They have been very good about meeting any deadlines I may need to meet, such as needing to collect children from childcare, so need vehicle ready by a certain time. I would absolutely recommend the team at Sims Brothers Garage to anyone and everyone!”

“Quick and hassle free. Cash paid for our wreck. Don't expect to get thousands if you aren't prepared to spend thousands repairing it.”

“I got recommended about this workshop. He's a top bloke and the service is genuine.”

“These guys are amazing. No nonsense, honest and great prices as well. Really important to support locally owned independent companies like this. You won't be disappointed!!”

“Outstanding service tonight…. My 4.5 hour drive south from Christchurch resulted in a slow front right hand leak noticed at 4:45pm. Headed straight in to the team and got the tire repaired and was on my way within 30min. Great service guys really appreciate your help!”

“Highly recommend, they have been easy to deal with and are honest with service notes, it’s hard to find a workshop i trust with my vehicles so I’ll keep coming back”

“Staying in our campervan overnight and the rain was coming in through the vent. Michael at B&S was superb. At no notice, he took a look for us, had the vent removed, cleaned and resealed and replaced the vent in the space of a couple of hours, just in time for another downpour. All at a very reasonable price. Very impressed. Thank You.”

“Excellent customer service and a very professional business. The repair to my Fiesta was very well done, was finished when promised, and my car came back sparkling clean! The courtesy car was very reasonable and much appreciated. Highly recommend this local business but hope not to need it again too soon. :-)”

“Highly recommend this company, I had a charging issue with my truck, Paul (manager) had one of his workers diagnosis the issue straight away, he spent approximately half an hour checking and identifying the issue, there was no charge for the diagnosis, (rarely seen these days), HDL were able to sorce replacement parts instantly and had my truck booked into the workshop the next day, I also had HDL look at another electrical problem, and this was also corrected and truck is running better than ever, Jacob who worked on my truck both times really did a thorough job and his work is impeccable, definitely an asset to HDL auto's , thanks team much appreciated...John”

“The easiest car wash and vacuum I have experienced. Efficient help from the guy on-site.”

“Great service! My xtrail car repair was done perfectly and lindsay was very professional and friendly. I highly recommend this place for anyone needing car repairs. Thank you for the excellent work!”

“Fantastic service and team. They are always very helpful and professional. On my last visit, for $400 they polished my badly damaged rim which new would have cost $2,300. Thanks so much”

“These guys always goes out of there way to help there clients from the team at Brian Scott Motors highly recommended.”

“James is the Stereo Man!!! Stopped in to have a look at a couple options and wow. James shared so much knowledge and experience that was awesome. It wasn’t about spending a crazy amount. It was about building a system that would work for myself and what I was wanting. Thank you I have recommended a number of people since my visit the other day and will send as many as I can. See you soon for the purchase. Cheers.”

“Curious about why I chose this mechanic? Just take a peek at the owner's response to a review by someone named Jacob Peterson. Like many, I comb through reviews, but what truly catches my eye is how businesses respond to criticism. The owner’s reply to Jacob was spot-on—direct, precise, and incredibly well-articulated. As a PhD researcher, I have a penchant for strong arguments and am always impressed by a well-crafted response. This one exceeded my expectations, convincing me I'd found the right place for my vehicle's Warrant of Fitness (WOF). Did I pass the WOF? Unfortunately, no sir. Still they get a 5 star rating. I am gonna get it soon though. Steve, smart, precise and talented mechanic, who also has an infectious smile, carefully explained the three reasons my car didn't make the cut: 1. My headlights need polishing, 2. My fog lights should be switched from LED to halogen, and 3. My rear number plate requires reinforcement. However, this meticulous attention to detail and their transparent honesty is exactly why I trust them. It’s not about making an extra buck—they're already quite busy. I wholeheartedly recommend them, and I've already spread the word within my community. So, if you notice the queue getting longer, remember that it's the quality that draws the crowd. Just as honey draws bees, their worth is undeniable!!”

“These guys were amazing, I had a problem with my brake rotors that popped up heading to Christchurch from Southland, a quick phone call to the Pit Stop in Dunedin and they squeezed us in. Replaced the rotors at an amazing price and had us back on the road highly recommend fantastic service.”

“Nathan and his team are fantastic. Sorted a blown fog light for me as well as figured out from my description of shuddering breaks, that the calipers needed changing. Great service, perspective, and attitude. Highly recommend!”

“In the middle of his busy schedule Lee was kind enough and repaired our tailgate lock problem with more than a fair price. Can't do anything but recommend him!”

“Graham was outstanding today. We had an issue with our car that was immediately looked at for us. This was between the Christmas and New Year period when he was already busy with other customers but managed to make time for us, explain what was wrong and the process to fix it, all within the hour for a very reasonable price. Outstanding service and lovely guy! Thanks so much Graham.”

“Fantastic service - friendly helpful guy who was juggling the pumps, the tyre repairs and the shop. Fantastic it was open on a Sunday.”

“Great place to take your car to be serviced and have maintenance work, especially if its a rotary!”
