Today was a great day to be a Perth Mobile Mechanic helping people all over Perth with roadside assistance ,car servicing and car repairs and even the occasional pre-purchase vehicle inspection , the best job today though was a broken down Ford in Ellenbrook with a flat tyre , we got there soon after the call for roadside assistance and removed the flat car tyre and replaced it with a new car tyre ,we did point out to the owner that his other car tyres are bald and the will need replacing very soon
Perth Roadside Assistance
Mazda won’t start in Duncraig
Today Perth Mobile Mechanics got a call from a gentleman with a Mazda in Duncraig who required roadside assistance due to his car not starting !! We managed to get out to Duncraig within the hour to look at the Mazda and why this car won’t start ?? So when we checked inside we found that the Mazda was 20000kms overdue for a service and when the engine cranked over it sounded like it was flooded ?? So being this overdue for a car service we replaced the spark plugs and car battery and cranked it over for several minutes and then it started !! The main problem was how far overdue for a car service it was !!
Vehicle Prepurchase Inspection
Today being a Monday we had a lot off calls for pre purchase vehicle inspections because off everyone out buying cars on the weekend subject to a Pre purchase vehicle inspection !! So this morning we headed out to Ellenbrook for a prepurchase inspection on a Holden Commodore !! When we got there and started checking over the Holden it looked like all was in very good condition but it wasn’t until half way through the prepurchase vehicle inspection that the Holdens true colours showed themselves, the front brakes were worn out and the rear shockies were leaking oil,the tyres required replacing and the car battery was flat !!! Not a good car to purchase and very lucky for the buyer that they got one off our pre-purchase vehicle inspections carried out

Dirty Holden air filter in Morley
Today was a great day to be a Perth Mobile Mechanic driving around helping car owners with roadside assistance,car servicing and car repairs but today Perth Mobile Mechanics to a call from a gentleman in Morley complaining that his Holden was getting very poor fuel economy and was due for a car service so we booked him for a standard car service and went straight out to Morley to have a look at his Holden , so we carried out the usual vehicle inspection on the Holden and when we got to the Holden’s air filter we found it was blocked solid causing the engine to work harder making it use more fuel ,we replaced the car parts required and the problem was solved
Split tyre wall
Today in the CMM Automotive workshop was a very busy day for preparing Mitsubishi‘s,Toyota‘s,Nissan‘s etc for winter with all the much needed car servicing and car repairs to all makes and models, but today we had a Mitsubishi come in from Woodvale for the usual log book service and when we checked the Mitsubishi’s tyres this is what we saw !!! very dangerous tyres not just in winter time but anytime , the Woodvale Mitsubishi owner was very happy with how thorough our car servicing was !!
Hyundai brake noises in Padbury
Today we received a interesting call from a guy in Padbury with a Hyundai which had some brake noises so we headed straight out there to do a brake inspection ! When we got there we took the car for a test drive only to find that sure enough there was some bad brake noise from the front but quiet from the rear ?? When we explained this to the owner he was puzzled because he had replaced the front brakes himself only three weeks ago ??? So we stripped off the wheels and did a full brake inspection !! We found that the brakes were new on the front but were not the correct brake pads and the disc rotors were all glazed and the two off these problems were contributing to the Hyundai’s brake noise so after the owner agreed we machined his brake disc rotors,fitted his new brakes [the correct brakes] and the problem was resolved
Toyota service
Today was a interesting day in the workshop doing car servicing and car repairs and one off those car services today was a Toyota that came through for a standard log book service and a list off vehicle repairs which consisted off several warning lights on the Toyota‘s dash staying on ??? So we carried out the usual vehicle inspection and we found the reason why the engine oil light was on was because there was not engine oil in it !! And the reason why the water level warning light was on was because the Toyota‘s cooling system required two litres of water and when we pressure tested the cooling system we found several leaking water hoses !! Very important to get a car service every six months or ten thousand kms because this Toyota‘s engine would have not lasted much longer
Poor car tyres
Today with all the bad weather lately we have received a lot off calls for roadside assistance for flat tyres or cars slipping off the road for no reason so if your car tyres look like this one then you need some new car tyres before something bad happens
Mobile Mechanic Mullaloo
Today was a interesting day to be driving around doing car repairs an vehicle servicing and we are finding these days that more and more people are putting off that much needed car service to try and save some $$$ that when we finally get the family car or work vehicle sorted for a car service that it maybe to late for your mechanic to do it cheaply !! for example here is a picture of a Mitsubishi’s rear brake drums from Mullaloo that we were asked to do a car service on today [this Mitsubishi has had no brakes for some time and now the brake drums will have to be thrown in the bin]
Mobile Mechanic Morley
Today was a great day to be a Perth Mobile Mechanic out doing car servicing and car repairs to all makes and models , with all this bad weather we have had so many people calling for roadside assistance with faulty car batteries and car alternators not charging but today we got a call from Morley from a gentleman with no brakes so went straight out there to find he had no brakes because off a faulty wheel cylinder that had come apart [very dangerous] so we replaced his rear brakes and off he went
Blocked fuel filter in Karrinyup
Today we received a email from a gentleman in Karrinyup with a Ford that wouldn’t start so off we went to Karrinyup !!! When we got there we noticed that the fuel filter was very old and possibly all blocked up so we replaced it and the Ford ran great after the car repairs
No brakes in Hocking
Today we received a call from Hocking to go and have a look at a Nissan that has been making some brake noises so we went to Hocking to do a vehicle safety check on the Nissan , so when we got there we drove the Nissan and sure enough it had brake noises from the front of it ! After carrying out a vehicle safety check we found it had no front brakes and the disc rotors were damaged !! This car repair would have been a lot cheaper if it only had a car service earlier and had the car repairs carried out then.
Bald tyres in Scarborough
Today we were out and about all over Perth fixing broken cars and servicing other cars before they get broken and we got a call from a guy in Scarborough with a Nissan which had a flat tyre and no spare to we went straight out there !! When we got to Scarborough we found not only did the Nissan have one flat tyre but it had several other bald tyres on it ,so we managed to jack the car up and took all four wheels back to the workshop for new tyres to be fitted,later we returned to Scarborough and fitted them up to the Nissan , now the Nissan owner can feel safe when driving around
Secondhand Mitsubishi in Northbridge
Today was a good day to be a Perth Mobile Mechanic , we were called to do a vehicle inspection in Northbridge on a Mitsubishi Pajero, the gentleman that called us had already looked at the Mitsubishi himself but wanted a professionals opinion as well so he called us to get a pre purchase vehicle inspection carried out so off we went to Northbridge, the prepurchase vehicle inspection was carried out an besides a couple off minor faults the Mitsubishi came up good !! the old owner was happy to drop the price a little to allow for these small car repairs to be done and the new owner was very happy with our 
Nissan in Stirling
Today was a great day to be a Perth Mobile Mechanic ,traveling around helping people with roadside assistance, pre purchase inspections and doing all sorts off car servicing and car repairs but the best job was a Nissan in Stirling that had a clunk from the front of the Nissan when it was in four wheel drive ?? So we got out to Stirling to do a vehicle inspection on the Nissan and when we did we found it had a worn lower control arm causing a banging noise [very unsafe] so we left Stirling for suspension parts and returned a hour latter to carry out the car repairs !! When we left the were very happy.
Worn Holden sub frame in Currambine
Today was a busy day in the CMM Automotive work shop in Wangara doing all vehicle makes and models ,car servicing and repairs but the one job that stood out was a Holden the came in from Currambine with a steering fault !! The Holden would pull badly to the left when having its car brakes applied ?? When we carried out the usual vehicle inspection to the under body we noticed the sub frame was damaged on the left side and when the Currambine Holden owner hit the brakes the left front wheel would move backwards causing the
to pull to the left
Prepurchase inspection in Midland
Today was a great day to be out doing car servicing and repairs , jump starting cars and trucks, replacing faulty tyres and leaking water hoses but the most interesting job today was a prepurchase vehicle inspection in Midland on a Nissan Patrol ,when we got there I noticed even from a distance that the Nissan had been highly modified !! When started getting in to the prepurchase vehicle inspection we quickly found out that the Nissan Patrol was very unsafe, everything from anti-swaybars been removed to missing steering column bolts that were about to let the steering column fall out !! Very important that when you buy a second hand vehicle to get a pre purchase vehicle inspection
Prepurchase vehicle inspection in Morley
Today it is so important that when you are buying a secondhand motor vehicle to have a prepurchase vehicle inspection carried out , this is a simple exercise that will help you have peace off mind that you won’t be in big financial problems after spending all your hard earned cash on a motor vehicle in bad need off service and repairs
Nissan in Landsdale
Today was a great day to be out carrying out car and light truck servicing, helping people with roadside assistance all over Perth, We got a call though today to come and have a look at a Nissan in Landsdale with a small oil leak !! When we got there the ladies Landsdale drive-way was covered in power steering oil due to the fact that yesterday the lady noticed a small drop on her drive-way and thought the vehicle repairs could wait another day or so [but it didn’t] The main power steering hose was split right through now and it emptied the power steering tank on to the drive-way !! So the point of the story is if you have a small oil leak today it might be a big oil leak
tomorrow so get it looked at !!
Toyota wheel alignment problems
Today was a busy day in the workshop for car servicing and car repairs on all makes and models ! We did have a Toyota come in for a car service today which the owner had no idea how unsafe her car tyres were until we took a photo off them and sent them to her !! Have a look at how the canvas is trying to come through ! To be safe you need to have good car tyres but to keep good car tyres you need a good car wheel alignment and this Toyota‘s wheel alignment was way out
