Auto repair shops in Wellington

“***I highly recommend Paul and the team at Challenge Pauatahanui*** - excellent customer service - community focused values and support - good prices, especially with the card - they stock Maycey’s packet lollies (smokers, jelly beans etc) For a good couple of years we lived in this area and they became our local gas station. Everyone there is so friendly and welcoming especially Paul and his daughter's. They have a real sense of community about them and always took the time to banter and have a laugh. My heavily tattooed partner can often be misjudged because of his looks but not here - they got to know him well and he’s always appreciated that! They are huge pillar in the community and I have so much admiration for their support with community fundraisers and promoting local businesses. There are very few people and businesses like this anymore which is so sad when once upon a time it was the norm. So we must show our support and appreciation by choosing their services wherever we can. Thank you Paul and team so much for all you do and your amazing service! We'll definitely be back whenever we’re up those ways :D”

“Uncle Chung is the best panel and paint I have ever met. Skilled and efficient”

“Scott and his team are amazing. They are friendly, knowledgeable and very accommodating. I have 4 work vehicles that do a lot of kms, so need a reliable mechanic. They always do a great job with no loose ends (unlike past mechanics I have used), and are great at communicating what is wrong / needs to be done in car illiterate terms. Thank you all so much for providing such a great service!”

“Always helpful, always friendly, excellent service. I have been a customer for years and really appreciate everything they do to keep my car (20+years old) in excellent condition.”

“Great local mechanics, really honest & open, organised with pre ordering parts & did the repairs really promptly.”

“These guys were very professional and easy to deal with from the very first phone call. They were able to diagnose the fault within an hour of me dropping the car off. They replaced the faulty sensor and also gave the entire transmission a service. Now my car is running smoothly again! I thought they charged a reasonable fee for the work.”

“I've recently had a nail in my tyre, so went to Burke's Tyres in Kilbirnie to get it repaired. Not only did Barry and his super friendly team repair it promptly, at a cost of only $40, when I went back to collect the wheel they re-fitted it onto my vehicle at no extra cost and carefully stowed my spare back into its correct place in the boot. Their charges are modest and their service is top-notch. It's definitely my "go-to" place for all things tyres.”

“Hey team, can't thank you enough for your exceptional service and repair job on our car. Absolutely agree with the majority of comments here - hoping not to need to, but would come back here to get repairs in a heartbeat! Love your attention to detail and your constant communication on the job status. Much appreciated.”

“These guys are the best! Have had to use them a few times and they have always provided same day service! Professional and great pricing. Thanks again”

“Amazing service and my car Donna is smooth and better than ever with my WOF cleared. Thank you muchly to all the staff who worked on her.”

“Bobby is well responsive, friendly and helpful. I felt like I could trust him and he would always find time to help me even when I was in trouble with my car. Highly recommend !”

“I was very pleased with the fast and professional service. I had a dent and scratch on the back of my car, and I brought it in for repair. Within just 3–4 days after I received the car, I noticed a small speck of dust stuck deep in the paint. However, they took the car back and worked on it again until I was completely satisfied! I also want to thank Lucy at the reception — she was very friendly, professional, and helped me arrange the appointment smoothly. Highly recommend their service!”

“I have been a customer of George’s (Manager of the shop in Jervois Quay) for years now, initially through a family referral. He has consistently provided outstanding service, demonstrating professionalism, reliability, and attention to detail. George’s approachable manner and positive attitude make each interaction easy and pleasant. My entire family now trusts him with our vehicles, and I have no hesitation in recommending him to others seeking high-quality, dependable car and tire care.”

“I can’t recommend Autostop Johnsonville enough! I’ve been taking both my vehicles here for WOFs, services, and all our mechanical needs for nearly 3 years now, and every experience has been absolutely fantastic. The team is incredibly friendly, helpful, and professional - nothing is ever too big or small for them to handle. What truly sets them apart is their honesty and transparency. They always explain everything in plain English and even let me know if something I requested isn’t necessary, which is such a rare quality to find these days. It’s so reassuring to have a place I can trust completely. I’ve recommended Autostop Johnsonville to all my friends and family, and I’ll continue to do so. If you’re looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely caring team for your car needs, this is the place to go. Keep up the amazing work, team - you’re the best!”

“I bought a mower from Ellmers around the turn of the century and they’ve kept it running ever since! Always great service, fair prices, and super helpful whenever the mower’s feeling a bit sulky. Never once made me wish for a new one and I can’t recommend them enough!”

“I would highly recommend MJ Motors to anyone looking for servicing your vehicle. Recently we called in to book headlight bulb changed and clear the fog on the headlamps. We were able to get an appointment quickly and the service was amazing and got the car back same evening. The price range was very affordable - we were quoted ridiculous amounts by other providers. Very happy with the service and have decided to do our yearly car service with them moving forward”

“Outstanding. Took my car in with no notice looking to bug a replacement. They fixed it instead, saving me money. The whole thing took just 20 minutes and the manager and staff couldn't have been more friendly and helpful.”

“Took my Mazda for a service and warrant. Had a hassle free experience with friendly service, good communication and an honest description of work done and items that might need attention in future.”

“Been coming here several years now. Raj is great. Friendly and up front with what needs work (and when its better not/not worth wasting money on). Very flexible with pick up and drop off too.”

“The team at Edwards did a great job on my vehicle repairs. The WOF expired over the period from the car being damaged and the time it was able to be booked in for repair. Edwards arranged interim running repairs on my vehicle and put me in touch with a nearby trusted Mechanic's Shop (de Boer Mechanical Services) to allow my car to pass VTNZ WOF. This kept me continuously mobile.”

“They are the best. Have done great work on my cars, no complaints. Very friendly crew. Highly recommend.”

“I have used Shannon for years. Great guy and is priced well. Highly recommended.”

“Excellent service, very approachable staff, excellent tyres and very good price. Had to replace my old tyres with new ones. Was using Firestone, Goodyear before, so was looking for something nice but was reluctant to pay $260-300 per tire. Had been offered Maxxis. Abt $200 per tyre. Appointment in 30 min time. Never used them before, so took a chance and never regret since. Tyres work fine. Start filling difference straight away. Very smooth ride and good noise reduction. Happy to discover Maxxis and Best Value Tyres. Extremely recommend.”
