Full Throttle Mechanics

Full Throttle Mechanics Everything & anything mechanical, Minor & Major servicing to all makes and models, scan tool available, general repairs, cooling and brake system repairs.

Hey everyone,
I'm Jac, 27 year old qualified female mechanic with over 10 years professional experience at both dealerships and small, local mechanical workshops. I have a very strong passion for cars and motorbikes therefore i love what i do for a job and take a lot of pride in my work. Recently Ive started this as my after hours business, as i do work full time for another local employer. Being

a female in still such a male dominated area was tough, but i managed to successfully complete my apprenticeship regardless. My promise to everyone reading this is; I will not rip you off, I will not take advantage of a situation if a person does not know a thing about cars, and will certainly not take advantage if that person is a female. I know exactly what its like when people think you know nothing about anything mechanical, and feed you full of useless information that turns out to be a load of crap, as i still today deal with this on a regular basis. There is no job too big or small, will look at anything from pw50's to the biggest of 4x4's. Can do ANYTHING mechanical to your car, bike, 4WD etc my quotes are free. I am not able to do RWC's, I used to have my certification but it has expired now. I can do pre-purchase checks and/or safety checks if you request or i can organize to get your RWC for you. You can contact me anytime about your vehicle although its much easier to get hold of me via inbox message on here or a text message to my mobile during normal business hours. So if there's anything i can help with give me a buzz on 0413 250 574.

Happy Birthday to our Full Throttle Queen We hope that you have an amazing day

Dear all our valuable customers,

Over the past few days, our team has been faced with a couple of unexpected and heartbreaking tragedies. Out of respect for those affected and to allow our team the time and space to grieve and heal, we have made the difficult decision to close the business for the remainder of the week.

We deeply appreciate your understanding, compassion, and support during this incredibly difficult time. We’ll be back as soon as we can and will keep you updated with any changes.
We are in the process of contacting everyone with their vehicle's already at the shop or booked in for the week to reschedule.

Thank you for standing with us.

A Note to Our Valued Customers

We’ve recently seen a Facebook post claiming we charged for work that wasn’t completed.

As far as we can tell, this customer doesn’t exist, and requests for proof have been refused.

At our business, we pride ourselves on transparency and quality. Every job is thoroughly documented with before-and-after photos and added to customer job cards with the faulty/worn part we removed and images of the newly inserted part.

We do not believe in charging for work we haven't done—doing so would go against everything we stand for.

We truly appreciate the messages of support from our loyal customers. To the individual behind the post, we welcome you to come in and speak with us directly so we can address your concerns respectfully and honestly.

Thank you for standing by us.

ā¤ļø APPRECIATION POST ā¤ļø

Some of you are aware that over the past 4-6weeks we have been running most days with just one mechanic. This is because our owner/head mechanic Jac has been incredibly unwell and dealing with a lot of appointments and spent more time at home resting than working in the workshop.

We do sincerely apologise for delays in finalising quotes, having days booked out to limit our workload to our one working mechanic, and for those who are waiting to hear back from us.

Jac is fully back on board today and together with the help of her staff we endeavor to get back to everyone in the next 24-48hours.

We sincerely appreciate all our valued customers for their understanding during this trying time.

If you are waiting to hear from us, please let us know via messaging the page and we will get back to you at some point today.

Please also remember, you can book appointments online via our website.

Thank you again ā¤ļø
