They were amazing, helped explain what needed to be fixed, and fixed the car. Thank you really appreciate it and will be back.

Good service. Fixed my brakes on the same day!

This service lacks professionalism. I was booked in for 8.30 but arrived to find the workshop closed. The staff rolled in 10 minutes late. I requested a service, new brake pads, and a roadworthy as I was selling the car. Despite the fact that the car passed a roadworthy 3000km (2 months) earlier, SJD found multiple issues that they said they could fix however the quotes were huge. Paid for a roadworthy that failed and took the car to another mechanic who looked at the car, and the issues raised by SJD and passed the roadworthy. Although the car isn’t in brand new condition (2018 model), it is roadworthy and safe which is why it passed. SJD was clearly finding ‘issues’ to try and create business. Not ok, do not recommend.

Fantastic service, great communication. Would definitely recommend it!

Easy to deal with, very friendly and helpful, will definitely recommend.

Did a rwc on my car and  found few things.Organized the repairs and fixed second day.Fast and fair price.Highly recommended!

They did a great job and were accommodating to me having to bring the car in an hour later.

I got charged $90 extra for labour to install a belt (which I ran around to Bursons to purchase), plus my tires were not rotated, which was on the scope. Terrible.

They were super fast and fixed my car problem very easily, plus they offered a great price for the job.

Fantastic service, couldn’t fault SJD Automotive.

They were amazing! Quick to assess the issue, quick to fix it, and payment options available. Thanks guys, you're the best!

Great price, excellent work. Very friendly and helpful.

Excellent service, great pricing, great communication.

Staff were fantastic, store was well presented and tidy. I genuinely felt confident in the shop's work and was not disappointed. Well priced and will return.

Excellent service, took my muffler in to be fitted being from a different model. Shaka the owner took 1 look at it and knew it needed mods, big job but easy for him. Quick, very professional and very nice guy. So ended up being more than I thought still charged me the same quote even with the time of modding it very happy with job. Thank you Shaka. If you need an exhaust done he is the man for the job. Very well priced and a pro at what he does.

Great service and always does the extra mile.

My experience with Odin Brake Service cannot be faulted at all. They were very quick to provide a fixed quote for exactly what I needed without any hidden costs. And the price was very fair and inline with my expectations. Would definitely use the service again!

Professional and upfront. I had extra repairs outside the normal service that came up, and I received a call about them before anything was undertaken, they were listed by urgency/importance and broken down by cost. Really appreciated the honesty and care, car drives much nicer now.

Good communication and quality work. Thank you.

Friendly, on-time service and advised of any upcoming issues.

Excellent experience. Playford Motors were great to deal with. Shaka is a down to earth, no nonsense guy who will treat you and your wallet well.

Very efficient, reliable and friendly staff. Well priced products and staff are knowledgeable.

Had my car window regulator supposedly fixed 2-3 weeks ago and the loan car they gave me was horrible, dirty and old.
When winding down my window since it was supposedly fixed it sounded a little clunky. This morning it seized up again in a car park. This is unacceptable as I paid $350 for what! Now I am inconvenienced by dropping it back off to them tomorrow morning to look at. If this isn't resolved tomorrow I want a refund. Did they even use a new replacement regulator in my window? I don't know how I am getting to work tomorrow after I drop off my car. I am not happy at all about this development!!!!

Fixed multiple problems and did not overcharge. Explained everything and showed the evidence. Had a loan car.

Prabhu did an excellent job and provided a loan. car and was finished in 3 hours or so. Also advised and actioned only what was necessary. Great job.

So far so good it was fast and hopefully good work ,we will see in a little time.

Great guys and even better service. I would highly recommend these guys.

Well he fit me in within half an hour. Took him about 16 minutes. And it was good workmanship. He was honest and did a great job. Has good knowledge of the industry. What more can I say? I’ll go back.

Very happy with the customer service will use again.

It was quick, easy and he is a very helpful man that tried to make it as easy and cheap as he could, which was appreciated.

Great service. Great prices. Somewhere females or anyone who doesn't know about cars can be assured of a good job.
