Elite Automotive Repairs Pty Ltd

Tried to get my aircon fixed and got quoted nearly $500 for a fan motor and resistor. When I said “the resistor’s new, why does it need to be replaced? ” he just dropped the price $50 and says “well I didn’t actually look at it, I always replace it when I replace the motor” (keep in mind I got the resistor replaced here and he wanted to charge me for another not even 2 months later).
Then went on to say that he only checked if the motor turned on, no actual fault finding or evaluation and he was going to charge me $480.

Wonderful business and wonderful staff. Darrin and his team are the best. As a customer of Darrin's for around 15 years, I appreciate their talents. Proof is that I pass three mechanical businesses just to get to Elite Automotive. They also look after my old classic Holden as if it's their own car. I love that passion in their work. I don't do these recommendations lightly but do yourself a favour, give the lovely Donna a call and make a booking. You won't be disappointed! I shouldn't be saying this 'cause I don't want them to get too popular! Just kidding!

I've been using Elite Automotive for many years with multiple vehicles. Their customer service is excellent and their workmanship is exceptional. Very knowledgable about all makes and models. I'd recommend Darren, Donna and the team at Elite Automotive without question.

Above and beyond expectations. Every issue explained and fixed perfectly. I recommend Elite.

Super impressed with Darren and the team at Elite. They really went above and beyond to ensure that I was happy with a tricky suspension job on my Landcruiser. That included fixing things to ensure I got the best result for a new winch installation. 5 stars!

Great mechanic! My husband convinced me bringing my car to Elite and I have never taken my car anywhere else. Especially for a woman it can be hard to get honest mechanical help but this business is honest, caring and my car never comes back with he same issue or problems from going to get fixed.

I have been a loyal customer of Darren’s for 13 years now, and I can confidently say that he is hands down the best mechanic I have ever encountered! From day one, his honesty, transparency, and reasonable costs have made him my go-to choice for all my automotive needs. He has consistently demonstrated a level of honesty that is truly rare in the automotive industry. He always takes the time to explain every required repair or maintenance in detail. I have always found his prices to be fair and reasonable. He often goes the extra mile to find cost-effective solutions without compromising on quality. My vehicle has been running smoothly under his care, and I credit him for its longevity and reliable performance. Both Darren and Donna are extremely professional and if you're looking for a business you can trust, then look no further! I am confident you'll have the same exceptional experience I've had all these years.

Darren and Donna have provided me with exceptional customer service for many years and I can highly recommend the team at Elite Auto.

Darren and the team are always friendly and professional. They do a great job on all of our cars. I would highly recommend Elite Automotive for any service or repairs.

Great people who also do great work. If no one else can figure out the issue Darren & Ryan will.

I had my own mechanic place for 10 years. Recent years I have had bad experiences there. That's why I need to find reliable mechanic which is Elite Automotive. Breaking pad were changed on that day I called so I could work Sunday shift. Everything such as customer services, price and quality of work was perfect. I am so happy to find Elite Automotive as there are good people who are honest and helpful.

Very professional, friendly and courteous. Literally, service with a smile and know what they’re doing.

Darren sorted out a number of urgent issues with my MX5 and kept me informed throughout the process with a super quick turnaround. The car drives awesome again and I was stoked with the work done. The honesty and efficiency is invaluable.

They made the process of getting my aircon fixed a breeze. Really happy with the service and efficiency

Efficient and no-nonsense. They managed to fit me into their busy post-holiday schedule and fixed the problem in no time. Recommended.

Darren is a top bloke and he helped me out with issues I was having with my car and updated on me the progress that was being made whilst it was being repaired right to the point I got it back. Ill be taking my car here from now on for anything. Very happy!

Elite Automotive is the most professional, honest, trustworthy, reliable and reasonable priced team of mechanics you will find. I showed up unannounced Monday morning, Darren and the team was completely booked but took the time to accomodate me from their busy schedule. After answering a few questions Darren’s expertise and knowledgeable mechanical experience found the cause of the problem within minutes. Once repairs where completed a final diagnosis check was carried out to make sure my vehicle was operating at it optimum. This is the workmanship and commitment I’ve received each and every time I’ve brought my vehicles to Elite Automotive for repairs or service.that’s why I have been coming back year after year.
Darren, Donna and the Elite team, thank you as always!

I chose this shop based on the previous reviews and I don’t regret it. Darren squeezed my car repair in between his fully booked schedule. He was upfront and straight about the timeline after he checks it. A same day repair was a fabulous thing especially I needed the car for the family next day. I didn’t ask about the cost, and once finished the repair cost was reasonable and fair. This is the first time I deal with Darren and won’t be the last. Other Mechanics would’ve overcharged for unnecessary fixes, where as Darren did the recommended work as discussed.
I highly recommend Elite Automotive Repairs and 5 stars well deserved to keep up the good work.

I have used Elite on a number of occasions, every time I have used Elite they have been polite professional and easy to deal with. Would definitely recommend them
