Services Offered at Makar Automotive in Shepparton

Logbook Servicing Without Losing Your Warranty

Logbook Servicing Without Losing Your Warranty

A common misconception among vehicle owners is that warranty protection requires all logbook servicing to be done at a dealership. This is not accurate. Australian consumer law permits any qualified independent workshop to perform logbook servicing to manufacturer specifications, leaving your warranty fully intact. Makar Automotive adheres to each vehicle's prescribed service schedule, using appropriate fluids, genuine-equivalent filters, and the correct replacement parts for the job. Every service is carefully documented so your logbook remains current and accurate. Choosing quality professional car servicing in Shepparton from a trusted local workshop means you can protect both your warranty and your budget.
Brake, Clutch, Suspension and General Mechanical Work

Brake, Clutch, Suspension and General Mechanical Work

A comprehensive mechanical workshop offers much more than a simple oil and filter change. The team at Makar Automotive's Shepparton premises handles brake and clutch repairs, front-end assessments, suspension inspections, and steering system work — all of which are critical to safe driving. If you notice pulling to one side, vibrations through the steering wheel, or unusual sounds when braking, these systems warrant prompt attention. Modern diagnostic scanning equipment is used to identify engine faults accurately, cutting out unnecessary time and expense. Pre-purchase inspections are also available, giving prospective buyers an informed view of a vehicle's mechanical state before any money changes hands.

Roadworthy Inspections and Air Conditioning Servicing

Roadworthy Inspections and Air Conditioning Servicing

Makar Automotive holds the authorisation required to conduct roadworthy inspections and issue certificates in Victoria. These certificates are a legal requirement when transferring ownership of a registered vehicle or when bringing a previously unregistered vehicle back onto the road. The inspection covers essential safety components including brakes, tyres, lights, and steering to verify the vehicle meets the required standard. The workshop also carries out air conditioning servicing and regassing — a worthwhile investment as Shepparton summers can be demanding on vehicle cooling systems. Consistent auto care of this kind ensures year-round comfort and safety for all occupants. Booking either service is straightforward: call 03 5821 2505 or drop into the workshop at 17 Lockwood Road during opening hours.
