Lucky for us the Queen had a birthday awhile back. So we get to have today off for it. How nice of her. So today 4th of October we will be enjoying a day at home like you.

I thought this is the type thing you would maybe see on a high performance vehicle. This one happened on a ‘high performance’ Toyota Camry. Not sure how this cam shaft snapped but good chance it could have something to do with the lack of maintenance. Don’t let lack of maintenance kill your vehicle.

Safe to say they got all the life out of the clutch on this Isuzu NPR.

Unfortunately for the owner of this Ford Ranger, we are pulling out electrical tape that the previous owner put in to the light well’s of the instrument cluster to stop the glow of the engine, abs and traction control lights.

They had just purchased this from an Auction yard.

Sometime’s the small cost of a pre purchase inspection could save you in this owners case potentially thousands.

From street spec to off road spec. Do you have modifications you want fitted to you vehicle? Ask us how we can help. We can source and fit nearly anything you want whether it be for your 4wd or something a little lower and a little faster. This hilux got an Ironman bullbar and phatbars snorkel.

Coles and Woolworths might have restrictions on what you can buy but fortunately we have none of them here. We are still able to source whatever you might need, or want, to get you’re car done. Check out this exhaust we fitted to a 2017 Hilux. Give us a call or send us a message and we will be happy to look after you.

Mike James Mobile Mechanical is still business as usual and will remain open to service your vehicle for as long as the relevant Government and Health Authorities deem it safe to do so. As has been the case from the beginning, the health and wellbeing of our staff and you is at the forefront of every decision we make.

If you would like to get your car fixed or repairs carried out please don’t hesitate to contact us and book it in.

Jasper our apprentice went 3rd year yesterday. Some days we forget he is only an apprentice. Hope you keep enjoying swinging spanners mate. Over half way now.

Fair to say he is pretty happy with the 3inch lift we fitted to this beast. We also organised the mod plate to make it all legal. Ask us about putting a suspension upgrade in your car.

This one was a quick one to diagnose. Call out as “my trailer brakes don’t work” unfortunately not as quick to fix. @ Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron

Have you ever wondered what filters the air coming into your car?

Pictured below is a cabin filter (also known as a pollen filter depending on what your car manufacturer calls it.) This filters the air from outside to keep the air coming through your air vents clean.

We pulled this one out of a Mazda that was long overdue for a change. Often people don’t ever bother to change these and some cars don’t even have one in them, however even the majority of the cars that don’t have one do actually have a place for one to be fitted.

Ask us to check yours next time your car is in for a service, especially as we head into Spring!
