My daughter in law took her car there to just have a service - she was told water pump, timing belt and rear suspension all needed replacing - cost $2400. I advised her to obtain a second opinion. She did - omg - $100 for minor work - none of the problems existed. Watch them if you go there or don't go there at all.

  • Kate Vearncombe

My car broke down last week, and my usual mechanic could not fit me in. I called around and Dario not only squeezed me in, he had me back on the road by midday! He was courteous and explained clearly what went wrong and what needed to be done. I'll be booking my car back in soon for my scheduled service!

  • Tony Counahan

Dario and his team are excellent. Have taken all my cars for servicing and modifications to them over the years. Ford ranger XLT, Mitsubishi Outlander, Holden Astra and my new RAM 1500. Wouldn't go to any other mechanic in the area. Nothing is too much trouble and there is no over charging.

  • Lachlan Davy

Professional and friendly service backed by experience and care. I took my car here for a roadworthy when I needed to sell it. All aspects and problems were clearly explained and communicated. I would definitely recommend this mechanic and I will definitely be back to get my car serviced!!

  • Harvey Keats

Always super honest, and quick turn around. Whenever having an issue they are happy to have a look at it that day, and usually will get it back to me within the next day or two. Also Great price, never feel like I’m being overcharged for the service.

  • hilky58

I was very impressed by their mechanic's knowledge, and the quote was very reasonable to fix my car. I felt valued as a customer and communicate was excellent. I would highly recommend these guys. I'm definately going back again for my next service.

  • Lucia Ariotti

Extremely expensive servicing. Quoted me a price to do a job, on top of the service on the phone and when I went to pick it up the bill was $200 more. Also on phone quoted 2 new tyres even though they had recently been rotated to get a road

  • Benn Ridley

I've used The Gap Mechanical multiple times now and I've never been disappointed. Dario is a great guy and an honest friendly owner. Reasonable prices and I've never been up sold or scammed (like I have been elsewhere) and any ongoing issue

  • Zan Lee

I brought my car in here for a log-book service and Miguel was extremely friendly and upfront with all the potential costs involved. They were also able to fit my car in straightaway for further work as it wasn't dealt with at the first go

  • Jessica Galu

Took our car in as the air-con was not working; mechanic said it needed to be regassed. Drove away after paying $245 and the a/c stopped working within 3 weeks. Our usual mechanic told us to take it back to this guy, as he obviously hadn't

  • Eduardo Riveros

Excellent service, all staff are friendly, very professionals and helpful. They have looking after my two vehicles for almost 5 years. If you need or looking for the best mechanic in Brisbane, do not hesitate to go there. The Gap Mechanical

  • Isabella H

This will be the only mechanic I go to from now on. As a women I'm always nervous to go to the mechanic alone but after coming here I'm no longer nervous. And can trust that I'm in safe hands. The customer service was amazing. I got a call

  • Margaret Saldais

I (and now my son) have been using Dario and his team for some years now. I could not recommend them more highly. Dario used to be an RACQ serviceman: he is knowledgeable, helpful and extremely accommodating in terms of 'fitting us in'. He

  • S R Dwyer

  • Hylton Robson

Booked in for a logbook service, was notified in the morning that brake pads and wipers needed replacing. Said I would do the brakes a bit later as I didn't have the budget now and that the driver wiper was recently replaced and that they

  • Damon Harder

We were looking for a new mechanic as our other retired. We were recommended by friends that The Gap Mechanical was very good. Also my wife working in the Gap, made the choice alot easier. The team are awesome, friendly, give good honest

  • Alex Dunlop

Great team and service, I highly recommend. I had a lot of work to be completed on my van, but Lachlan and Dario kept in contact with me throughout the process and even waivered some additional costs. I am always dubious about car costs

  • grace harding

I’ve had a few jobs done by the gap mechanical over the last 2 years. As a female with little car knowledge and a 30yr old car Dario has been great very understanding and honest. I’ve had service, new part installation and brake lines

  • Tennille Lardner

Do not get your vehicle serviced here. Routine service booked in, we had to take it back 3 times in a week after other dealers confirmed poor work was done (and even put it in writing). No ownership of the issues. Even after an RACQ

  • Jhon Moncaleano Torres

I've been taking my car for the last couple of years to The Gap mechanical. Dario and his crew have provided a really good level service, providing upfront costs and detail required to do during each visit. Highly recommended!

  • Selenia Ruda P.

What a excellent service. I got more than I asked for. The owner it's such a good, honest guy with more than 20 years experience as a mechanic. He help me a lot with my car. I'm pretty sure your car will be on a good hands.

  • Brian Clair

I booked my car over the phone, while I was interstate, for the following week. The work was done on time and budget. The Gap Mechanical is always a pleasure to deal with. Thanks to Miguel and the team!

  • Stephanie Jimenez

Honest, experienced, and trustworthy. They are upfront about whats worth spending money on immediately, what's necessary in future, and what's worth saving up for, so no massive surprise bills at

  • angy Marin

Dario and his team are amazing. My car need it a new gear box and it just feels like a brand new car . He is an honest, reliable person that looks after his clients. Thank you Dario! …

  • Ross Bonnet

Very friendly, timely and professional all at a good price. Sqeezed my car in at late notice and got the job done with no hassle. Highly recommended this business. Thank you guys.

  • Phil Evans

Dario is an absolute ledgend, even though fully booked, he did a diagnostic, sourced replacement parts, and had me motoring again within a day to continue my travels.

  • Chloe S

Super friendly team and phone service. My car wouldn’t start and I gave them a call and the man I spoke with was so kind on the phone at 8am!

  • Jessica Mealy

If you’re a woman I’d suggest going elsewhere or get a male to take your car in for you. Customer service is also not a strong suit.

  • L W

On behalf of a friend, that you have blocked! Fooled my mate numerous times into thinking his car has been fixed by this mob!

  • Ricardo Ignacio Ruda Pelaez

excellent place to repair my car, very good prices, and excellent service from the staff.
