From Ormeau to Southport: The Gold Coast’s Go-To Mechanics

If you are searching for car mechanics you can trust on the Gold Coast in Australia, you have found the right team. Our auto workshop on Hopper Ave, Ormeau, is the convenient mobile vehicle servicing centre point for nearby areas including Southport, Arundel, Yatala, Coomera, Beenleigh and Jimboomba. We are proudly local and owned, providing automotive services that combine professional workmanship with competitive prices and honest communication. Unlike a mobile outfit, we are a fully equipped, state-of-the-art auto servicing centre with diagnostics gear, brake lathes, hoists, wheel aligners and manufacturer-level scan tools.
Our auto mechanics handle a wide range of makes and models, from new mobile vehicles still under warranty to well-loved family cars with a few years and kilometres under their belt. We call before doing any additional work and provide transparent quotes so costs stay under control. We are open Monday to Friday, 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM and can arrange limited local pick-up and drop-off when staff and mobile vehicle availability permit.
Logbook Servicing That Keeps You Covered — and Your Car Happy
Keeping the warranty intact should be simple. Our logbook services follow manufacturer schedules, use quality parts and correct fluids, and include digital or stamped records for your logbook and service history. If your handbook specifies a basic service at set kilometres, we do exactly that; if a model has special requirements such as DSG transmission fluid, timing belts or specific cooling systems, we advise clearly, price fairly, and only proceed with your approval.
Because safety matters, every log book service includes our 60-point inspection covering brakes and pads, tyres and pressures, suspension components, steering, battery condition and charging system, cooling system leaks, exhaust checks, engine bay inspection, lights, wipers and a thorough road test. You receive a written report with findings, recommendations ranked by urgency, and clear next steps. Customers on the Gold Coast in Australia highly recommend our approach because it is honest, easy to understand and respectful of your time.
We are committed to quality and satisfaction, which means service done by a qualified, certified mechanic, up-to-date training and a customer experience that feels professional yet friendly. We back our work with a straightforward parts and labour warranty. Prefer to manage things online?

Repairs Big or Small: Getting You Back on the Road, Stress-Free
From a squeaky belt to a full transmission repair, our skilled team handles mechanical repairs efficiently and professionally. We specialise in brake repairs, clutch replacements, suspension and steering fixes, cooling system leaks, engine diagnostics and exhaust issues. Our goal is to get you back on the road fast with reliable results and workmanship you can trust.
For tyres, we supply and fit a wide range with the correct load and speed ratings for your mobile vehicle and driving needs. For batteries, we test and replace when necessary. When air conditioning fails, our air conditioning service includes leak checks, re-gassing, and system performance testing—perfect for the summer on the Gold Coast in Australia. For complex faults, our diagnostics process combines scan-tool data with hands-on testing to find the root cause, not just the symptom. If you need the best long-term fix, we map options, explain pros and cons, and help you choose what suits your vehicle and driving.
We also support business fleet vehicles with predictable pricing, consolidated invoices and service reminders. Ask about tailored plans for your company cars and vans; our centre is set up to service multiple vehicles efficiently, and we coordinate timing to suit your work schedule.
No matter the repair you need, having the right mechanic makes all the difference. At Gooch’s Garage, we combine experience with clear communication, so you drive away confident that your vehicle is cared for properly. Reach out today and let us handle the hard work while you enjoy the smooth ride ahead.
Brakes, Tyres & Roadworthy Certificates Without the Hassle

Roadworthy certificates are called Safety Certificates in Queensland, and as an Authorised Inspection Station (AIS #9991), we are certified to complete inspections for cars, trailers and caravans. If your vehicle needs work to pass, we provide clear quotes and, where possible, same-day repairs. Brake pads and rotors, tyre replacement, steering and suspension checks and lighting faults are handled in-house.
Our brake services cover everything from a basic pad swap to machining rotors, fluid flushes and diagnostics for ABS systems. For tyres, we help you find the right balance of performance, comfort, tread life and price, then complete fitting, balancing and alignment so tyre condition supports safety. We also provide pre-purchase inspections to help you make a confident decision before you buy. If you are in Southport or Arundel, we can book you in today and have your inspection completed efficiently with clear pass or fail notes and next steps if required.
