Hi, my name's Richard, one of the founders of My Auto Shop. Not being from the Auto industry, I know the feeling of confusion and uncertainty when trying to look after your car. Speaking with other Kiwi friends and family, it sounds like an all too common feeling, so we decided to do something about it. At My Auto Shop we've worked closely with carefully vetted, MTA approved garages to provide tailored, up-front prices for common services, inspections, and repairs. If it is something more specific you're looking for, we do the leg work for you by quickly gathering quotes from our garages, so you can choose the option that best suits you without lifting a finger. If you have questions about how we work, feedback on the business, or just want to have a chat, I'd love to hear from you!

Yes, we do. Alongside our network of partner garages, we've added the convenience of getting common repairs and servicing completed at your place. Our technicians have the latest professional tools and equipment and are trained and incentivized on customer satisfaction. We think it's a game-changer, and we can't wait for you to experience the benefits of car maintenance on your terms.

We have garages throughout the country and more joining us every day. Jump into our Garages page, then search by your suburb to see who is in your neighbourhood. You can enter your vehicle info on the home page to see their specific prices for your car. Our garage directory lists all of the MTA garages in your area. We've made it easy to contact them within the booking flow too, simple hit the "Contact" button and fill in your details and we will ensure the garages know you are looking for their services. Currently our mobile technicians are available in Auckland and Wellington only.

You can see workshop opening hours on their profile page and during check out. Some workshops will be open on weekends for you. Our Customer Services team are available Monday to Friday between 8am and 5:00pm.

We’ve handpicked the garages we work with and selected only the best mechanics from within the MTA’s approved network. Every garage is vetted to ensure they have the latest equipment to service your vehicle, use high quality, manufacturer equivalent parts, and have a great customer track record.

The prices you see are tailored for your car based on the make, model, engine size and origin of the vehicle. Workshops have then used our smart pricing tool to calculate their prices for you, so whether you're driving a Toyota, Ford, Subaru, Honda or Audi, and if it's a hatchback, ute or SUV, you'll be getting the right price for your car.

We are here to make car maintenance easy. Once you've made a booking with our remote technicians you will be sent an email with a specific time they will arrive and details of the qualified technician. You'll then get a text when they are on the way. We work rain or shine, but it is really helpful if your car can be located somewhere flat and safe. Our team comes prepared. We have the best tools and correct parts for your job, and there are no hidden costs or call-out fees.

There are literally hundreds of mechanical components to maintain in your car. To take the hassle out of contacting garages for quotes we developed a quoting engine that asks specific questions about your problem, then automatically finds the best local garages to price the fix. After validating the cost we send them through to you via email and make booking simple.

If you know what is wrong with your car and need a specific job completed, such as a brake replacement or a new cambelt, then sure thing… you can either contact our friendly Customer Services team through the contact page or get in touch with one of our awesome mechanics directly.

Uh oh! Fortunately, our partner garages and remote technicians are all experts with years of experience in diagnosing tricky issues. So whether its a noise from the engine, squeaky brakes, a shaky steering wheel or something else, we can try to get to the bottom of it. Simply select the diagnostic option on check out and we will allocate an hour to dig into the problem and come back to you with a quote to repair it.

Not a problem, we understand things come up. Either call the workshop directly or give us a call on (09) 887 8317 or email us at [email protected] at your earliest convenience and we can make the changes for you.

Yes, it does.

Please keep your phone on whilst your car is getting work done, as often they will find other things that need some love. The workshop or remote technician will be sure to contact you directly if something has been identified, and will be armed with all the relevant information to let you make an educated decision to proceed or not. They will not do any work that will incur an extra charge without your explicit approval.

Uh oh! The workshop will let you know as soon as possible that it has failed and what needs to be done to remedy it. Fortunately, many of the garages we work with have the ability to fix cars on the spot, therefore once you have given the OK to continue with the work, they should be able to get it all sorted and back on the road for you in the same day.

Well done, it just gets easier from now! We have sent you an email with everything you need to know. You just need to take your car into the workshop at the agreed time, or wait at the address provided for the remote technician to arrive. They'll both know whats happening. We'll also send you a reminder email the night before your job so you don't forget! If you have any questions or need to change anything, feel free to email us at [email protected].

If you are happy to drive it to a workshop, that's fine by us. However, we will not be able to pick up your car for you. Any vehicle our driver-partners drive needs to be in a road worthy condition to ensure their safety & insurance coverage. Once you have a registration and WOF, please get back in touch and we can help service or repair your vehicle.

Some of our workshops do offer a loan car. If this is something you are looking for please feel free to give us a call on (09) 887 8317 or email on [email protected] and we can direct you to the garages that offer this.

Once you’ve typed in all your details and submitted the quote request form, you’ll see a list of suitable mechanics in your area and their costs to carry out your car service. You can find more details on the services and repairs provided by our garages here - https://myautoshop.co.nz/services-index.

We welcome all types of feedback! You can send us an email at [email protected] or give us a call on (09) 887 8317. Alternatively, you can leave us a rating on Trustpilot or Facebook. Following a completed job we will send you a link to allow you to rate the garage your booking was with. This will be used to provide feedback to the garage and will appear on their profile page.
