Reviews of North Shore Autocentre

Kevin is an exceptional guy, looking after my Mini. He gives very useful information and shows a great concern not just to the car but also to the customer. He is transparent and truthful. He is generous with his time and effort, indeed going the extra mile. Highly recommend, North Shore Auto Centre for any WOF or car repairs.

L. J.

Professionalism and Quality Kevin is very professional, prompt to help and explains thing clearly to understand for someone who is not a mechanic but just a driver. His autocentre provides a quality service at a short time frame and at the reasonable price. I have visited Kevin's centre only twice but definitely wouldn't go anywhere else from now on. I highly recommend Kevin and his autocentre.

Kevin is an absolute gem. I witnessed his work ethics first hand when I had my car fix with a complex front suspension issue. Thru out the journey, he was fully transparent and worked towards the best outcome. Thank you Kevin

R. G.

My car had a few surprises whilst it in the Kevin's shop and he kept me updated all along with the most cost effective options. It was a breath of fresh air getting such a reliable and honest service. Stoked with the new tyres too!

E. P.

Second time going to NS Autocentre for WOF and service. Kevin is highly professional, excellent communication and clearly takes a ton of pride in his work. Will only take my cars to Kevin going forward - quality, professional service all the way around

l. n.

Highly recommend taking your car to North Shore Autocentre! Excellent service and communication - Kevin went above and beyond to fix issues that 3 other mechanics missed or ignored and provided detailed explanations on everything he did. Great workmanship and knowledge. Wouldn't go anywhere else!

K. S.

Kevin is professional, friendly, thorough and I found him to have very high standards with his workmanship . He clearly explained what he would do and what he did and messaged me options along the way which I liked. A very clear communicator which can be hard to find sometimes. He did a great job on my car and now it runs like a rocket. Kevin also gave me great advice on how to look after my car with things like oil, tyre pressure etc. 5 stars!

T. R.

I've been taking my vehicles to Kevin for the last 5 years. His vast knowledge and expertise is representative of the quality of his workmanship. He's an honest and straight up mechanic which is why he retains such a loyal customer base.

W. K.

I would love to give another 95 stars to make it 100!!! Kevin is such a cool mechanic who is truly professional and reasonable! Service was awesome, highly recommended!

J. G.

Found this centre by chance and the service on my Ducato camper was carried out with the result that it now runs better and with smoother gear changes and it is performing better than from the the past, I will be using Kevin's service in future not only because it is close to my home but clearly the professional knowledge he has makes it so easy to deal with.

My car was making those embarrassing loud squeaky noises (the kind that make you wish all your windows were tinted) so I took it to Kevin down at the North Shore Autocenter. He'd had a look and suggested changing the drive belt to start off. I ended up mixing up the dates for my appointment but Kevin took me in despite that drama (sorry Kevin!). He also checked all other parts of the car that could have been responsible for the noise after changing the drive belt to make sure things were running quiet. I've had no issues since. Thanks again for squeezing me in Kevin! Would definitely recommend!! :D

S. S.

Kevin is a really genuine honest guy. I've used his service for about 3 years now. I once took my car in because it was feeling strange, he loaned me his courtesy car for the day, and when I came back he said there was no fault...and didn't charge me anything!. His pricing is fair and he looks after my car really well and I trust him.

Went to Kevin for a service and wof once and have been returning since. He always gives professional service, fair pricing and responds to queries quickly. I also appreciate the booking reminders I get for servicing. I fully trust my car with him.

Kevin has looked after our vehicles for 3 years now and I wouldn’t want to to use anyone else. He is reliable, efficient, professional, and always explains clearly what any issues are and what our options are. There is also a courtesy car if you ask in advance which can be handy. Thanks Kevin for always doing an awesome job : )

R. T.

Best car service, WOF and repairs ever. Recommends this place to anyone asking me where to find a good mechanic!

s. j.

Kevin was efficient and had great communication. Well priced too.

L. W.

I have been going to North Shore Auto for the past 2 years & am always impressed with the quality of the work and great service! Kevin is very reliable & clearly explains what needs to be done and why. I have recommended NSA to a couple of colleagues & they, too, are very happy with the great service and reasonable prices! I am so pleased that I have found this workshop!!

L. H.

First time customer after reading quite a number of good reviews. We are very happy with the service received, and feels Kevin is running a well managed business with decent knowledge. And for a innocent car owner like me, he cared enough to explain things in plain English, not intimidating at all which was much appreciated. Thank you Kevin.

J. W.

Kevin is great. Very knowledgeable, friendly and trustworthy. He explained clearly what needed to be done. I would highly recommend his business and will use his services again. Thanks so much!

A. H.

I've been using Kevin's services for few years, and he has always done an excellent work. He recommends what's only needed for the car. I've struggled with many car mechanics around, and I'm very pleased to have found North shore auto Centre. Never disappoints. I'm now recommending him to everyone. Thanks Kevin for your great service.

M. P.

Been coming here for the last few years and I always leave satisfied! Kevin's customer service is exceptional and professional. He is quick to respond. Explains in detail and doesn't over charge! A very reliable mechanic. After going to several people over the years and leaving dissatisfied, I am glad I came across this business. Would gladly recommend this place to anyone.

T. S.

Very happy about the service provided! My car had a lot of things going on and Kevin was great with his advice and communication. He explains things thoroughly and provides affordable service and alternatives. Will definitely be coming back. Thanks Kevin!

Brought my car here because of all the high quality reviews and was not disappointed!! Kevin was very professional, with great communication, diagnosed the problem and fixed my car quickly. Very reasonably priced, will definitely be my go to from now on for any car problems. Highly recommended. Thanks Kevin

G. J.

Kevin did a great job with my Honda Civic. Got my annual service and WOF done in March 2021. The service was good, value for money and on time.

Absolutely superb experience. Kevin's communication was clear and quick via text and email. He was very informative and provided good recommendations. The jobs were completed fast and it was well priced for how much work was done. Will be going back here for all my servicing and WoF's in the future!

I am very happy with Kevin's professional and thorough service, reasonable pricing and we service all our family vehicles at North Shore Autocentre! I won't hesitate to recommend this motor vehicle repair centre.

S. M.

Kevin is extremely helpful and professional! Great at explaining things and very reasonably priced! Super reliable and trustworthy, wouldn’t take my car anywhere else! Have recommended him to everyone!

M. W.

I have used Kevin for all my cars since moving out to NZ. It is rare to find a mechanic so genuine, trustworthy, honest and helpful. I always know his work is of the highest quality and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone. The cost is always reasonable and much cheaper than a BMW garage for the same level of service.

A. B.

Kevin did major works on my VW. He did a stellar job on the car and I very happy with the service and his workmanship. He even requested that I bring the car back after 2 weeks so he can do a follow-up check on the car. I've found a very good, affordable and reliable mechanic, I won't be look elsewhere. I will definitely recommend Kevin to my friends and family.

M. B.

I was referred to Kevin by a colleague last year. Kevin's service has lived up to expectation. He is thorough, and gives easy to understand information on what work he has done, or on what he is recommending and why. A good find! 01/2020 Received reminder next service due. Had use of loan car while the team did their thing. Customer service friendly, efficient and exactly what I want. Thank you

Excellence service. Detailed discussion about what was done and why. Prices far better than the dealers service arms. Highly regarded

Very reliable and trust worthy service. Uses high quality products and services. My whole family uses this mechanic and we are always happy with how the cars come back. Big thumbs up 👍

G. H.

Kevin was great, talked me through everything he needed to do and gave me reasonable quotes. I will be going here again with my car, felt well taken care of!

Fast, reliable and trustworthy. Fantastic service with no hidden surprises. Thanks Kevin!

J. B.

Excellent, prompt service, great communication with an explanation about what was wrong. I was impressed with the price options so I had a choice. No hesitation in giving 5 stars.

Kevin is fast, efficient and well priced. Will definitely continue to use him in the future.

Y. L.

First time using Kevin's services and incredibly pleased with the result. Took my car for a WoF and fluids service, very fast turnaround. Since there were a few issues with the car, Kevin squeezed me in for the following morning to sort everything as soon as possible. Definitely earned another loyal customer. Prices are well worth the quality of the job and attention to detail.

B. E.

Kevin is an honest and hard working mechanic, I know my car is in good hands and I get charged a fair price. Been coming back for years and even now that we have moved out of town.

F. D.

I was recommended Kevin and North Shore Autocentre by another customer. Kevin was able to fit me in quickly for a service and WOF. I found his customer service excellent and was provided with a full and clear quote for the work necessary, which was then also completed efficiently. I'll be returning.

j. c.

WOF/Service as always Professional work delivered with a patient explanation to any questions about the vehicle. Kevin also takes the time to offer any advice on where to find neutral info and what to look out for. I highly recommend NorthShore Autocentre. Krgds Joseph

A. S.

Got a secondhand car fresh off the boat and took it to Kevin for a check up and service. Was very impressed in his professionalism in fixing what needed to be done and giving straight up advice. Was even more impressed in that he arranged with the dealer to skim the brakes at no cost to me (and after the purchase had been completed). Above all that, sourced two good free tyres to make the car safe for a upcoming family road trip. I've been through the service process many times now but none come close to this level of service! Well done mate!

K. S.

Really great service here, Kevin seems really trustworthy and genuine and I trusted that he really knew what my car needed. I will be back in the future!

B. K.

Kevin checked my car for free and let me know what needed repairing and got it fixed. Also told me what didn't need to be repaired right now so that I didn't have to pay for unnecessary repairs, and let me know what I needed to do to pass my upcoming WOF. I'll be sure to come back here next time if I have any issues or want to service my car. Thanks for the professional work.

B. W.

Seriously impressed with the service I have received from Kevin. As usual when you do an online lead/quote request, no one gets back to you - but Kevin was on to it within 3-4 hours. The fact he personally does all the work, so knows intimately whats going on, is a real bonus. I wont go anywhere else now - especially as he found a couple of things that other mechanics said they had addressed - and hadn't. All you ever want is a decent job done at a fair price - and this guys ticks all the boxes....and no I am not related to him!

J. J.

I had bought a very high mileage car about a week ago and so booked her in for a full service. There wasn’t much to be done (thank goodness) and she’s running like a dream so far. Had a great experience with Kevin, very quick responses and a quick book in. Really felt that he could be trusted. Delighted to find my new car doctor! Thank you Kevin. Jackie

C. V.

Kevin was awesome from the start. Quickly responded to all of my emails and booked us in quick smart. Was very thorough with the warrant and service and was great to deal with. Even though my car was full of stuff, it was cleaned inside and out, and to top it off when I drove away it felt like a new car!! Thanks again Kevin.

R. M.

Have been going to see Kevin at North Shore Autocenter for over a couple of years now. He has always been very helpful, going the extra mile for anything needed and the quality of work has been amazing. I have already recommended him to several people personally and want to tell everyone else looking online exactly the same. Highly recommended.

H. P.

Best garage I've been to in Auckland.Kevin is a top mechanic alongwith his staff. Efficient, no xtras added on unless agreed to. Their courtesy cars are like new, always fit me in.Happy to recommend as a top notch place for warrants and any other work needed on your car.

F. S.

Recently I purchased an import BMW and was nervous about how well the vehicle had been serviced in the past so took it to Kevin at North Shore Autocentre. He checked it over and recommended some general servicing that could be carried out to give me peace of mind. I have found him to be very professional,knowledgeable and honest with his advice. His workshop looks to be spotless which always makes me feel that the business takes pride in the work it carries out for customers. I will be using this business for all my vehicle servicing and repairs and can recommend North Shore Autocentre to anyone looking for a reliable mechanical service.

M. N.

After dealing with Kevin at North Shore Autocentre my faith has been restored that good mechanics really do exist! Kevin fixed an issue I had with my brakes for only $110 in a couple of hours, whereas another mechanic had quoted me over $600 for the repair and a two week wait. Thanks again!

R. B.

Excellent service. Highly recommend Kevin, and felt he was very thorough. I rang him with a query re my car a few days later and he was excellent in explaining to me about my concern.

J. N.

I've been going to North Shore Autocentre for the past couple of years because of the great service from Kevin, he's a true professional Even got Kevin to look over a van that I was looking at buying because that's what you do, go to the professionals Keep up the great work!

Dropped my car in for its first service. Very satisfied with the job done - especially with the yellowing lamps fixed! Kevin is honest, professional and provides a very high level of service.

h. w.

My wife and I have been using Kevin for the last 3 -4 years for our cars servicing and WOFs etc. Always does an awesome job at a good price. Highly recommended.

Very reliable and trust worthy service. Uses high quality products and services. My whole family uses this mechanic and we are always happy with how the cars come back. Big thumbs up 👍

Great service from Kev at North Shore Auto Centre! Smart, polite, and helpful team. They fixed my Audi for a few hundred $s when we initially though it would be $7k+. Highly recommended!

G. &. S. R.

Nothing but I professional, honest and well priced service. We have been using North Shore Autocentre for the past 2 years and will continue on doing so. We find Kevin to be a genuine trustworthy guy and couldn't recommend him enough.

C. K.

A. R.

Have been taking my Father-in-law's vehicle to North Shore Autocentre for the last two years or so. Kevin has always been honest in his approach, reasonable in his service fees and on time with his service. Happy to recommend North Shore Autocentre without hesitation. Regards, JR

C. G.

Thank you again for such good service - went to get a WOF after another nearby mechanic could not do one. He found my automatic transmission recently flushed had not been completed correctly and tightened it up for me. He also explained a few mechanical issues and what it meant which is nice if you know nothing about cars. Will be taking my car services here from now on!

B. M.

I recently got a service and some minor repairs done at North Shore Autocentre. The work was all done quickly and everything was communicated to me clearly (such as pricing quotes) before anything went ahead so there were no surprises. I felt that Kevin went the extra mile and checked everything thoroughly. Would definitely recommend.

S. K.

First time i've used North Shore Autocentre. Excellent service provided. Quick turn around, loan car provided and vehicle received beautifully cleaned (unexpected) and value for money. Great communication by Kevin on any further work uncovered during service. Highly recomended.

v. r.

Kevin is reliable, trustworthy and very efficient. Has done great work on all my cars brought to him. Highly recommend!

N. B.

I took my car in for a quote and turns out I need a whole new transmission. After speaking to the mechanic about the history of my car he gave me tips on how to take it back to the car dealer and get them to fix it. Yet to see how I go down this avenue, but he didn't even charge for the diagnosis. He is honest and genuine. I now won't go anywhere else!

C. C.

The only man in Auckland that has actually been able to fix my car. After 3 mechanics spent days on it, costing me a fair amount of money. Kev managed to find the problem in minutes whilst I watched. Great service, outstanding knowledge, great value, I wouldn't go anywhere else.

J. N.

Kevin has been our GO TO guy for our car maintenance - professional, quality work on time at a reasonable price. Thanks Kevin!

A. S.

Drop the car at North Shore Autocentre and you know it’s in safe hands. Kevin take care of your Car like his own. Not just Service and repair I get advice from him when I need to buy a new car.

R. C.

Legit operator, my trust in mechanics and auto shops is very low but Kevin has been transparent and always explained what he’s replaced or serviced cause it’s good till the next service. Two years he’s serviced my Audi and really happy.

Kevin and the team has set the banner of High Standard workmanship, which I boldly testify. He persevered with my car untill he hit the bulls eye. Amazing service. 🤩

D. L.

You're often a little wary when you go to an auto centre for the first time, but Kevin helped put any fears I had to rest. He was professional, knowledgeable and friendly; he kept me up to date on the work that was being done and was honest and upfront about the cost. Would go again.

D. -.

Perfect, nothing to say. Kevin was very reactive and efficient for my needs. Get there at 10:30 am just to ask, my car was repaired at 1:40 pm. Thank you very much.
