Thread: Non-Mazda places to service 3MPS in Melb?

  1. #1

    Default Non-Mazda places to service 3MPS in Melb?

    Hi,

    I'm sworn off servicing a car at my local stealership, and wondered if anyone can recommend where to get a MPS serviced in Melbourne, someone that has a bit of experience with turbos? I live in Viewbank but work around Kew/Hawthorn. Only had Gen 1 MPS for ~ 6 months so first service.

    Thanks

    JB

    Before giving up on dealers I'd recommend Garry warren Smith in mulgrave, best in Melb for dealers easy, @slixx @Caffeine Fiend can attest to that. Hpf in dandenong have worked on a fair few mps as well (tune/BT installs/servicing etc)

    Thanks for tips. Sadly Dandy and Mulgrave are way off for me to get to. Penfolds in Hawthorn are just down the road from my work, however they are quoting $800+ just for a "routine" service ... some bad experiences with other dealerships (Honda, VW) have kept me away.

    Unfortunately not alot of places I would trust with the MPS, even for servicing. Might be a few others in Melb but I don't know of any others that have dealt with alot of MPS

    Could I bump this thread.

    I just got my gen 1 MPS and have looked around for a place to service it but have been unimpressed in what I've seen so far.
    I've had "we haven't done one before but we'll give it a shot" kinda thing so I would like somewhere good.

    I don't mind traveling a bit but I'd just rather not service it at a place that doesn't know what they're looking at.

    I've looked at city mazda (that's where the previous owner serviced it) but they ask a fair bit of cash for a service.

    I'm curious to see where people get theirs serviced?

    Thanks!

    Hey Jay, Ant here

    I get mine serviced by a mechanic in moorabbin but he is actually an x Mazda mechanic. So he Knows what he is doing. He is very thorough and always presence your car amazingly after a service. I'm actually going up Thursday night to drop mine in for a service. Happy if you want to come and meet him
