A mechanic for Glebe, about 2 km by the back way

The 2 km back way from Glebe

Follow Wigram Road to Booth Street and take Booth Street towards Pyrmont Bridge Road. Turn right into Guihen Street, left into Chester Street, and right onto Pyrmont Bridge Road. From there, turn right into Gordon Street and left into Water Street. Water Street runs directly into the top of Mathieson Street.

Continue down Mathieson Street to our entrance beside 208 Parramatta Road, Annandale. The distance is about 2 km. Coming from the Glebe side, don't turn right into Mathieson Street off Parramatta Road. This route brings you in from the top of the street instead.

Options while your vehicle stays with us

Jubilee Park light rail is about 1.8 km away on foot and can suit the return towards Glebe. Another choice is to walk about 200 metres west to the Annandale Hotel bus stops on Parramatta Road, where services include the 480 and 483.

When you book, tell us if you plan to drop the car early and come back later. Leave the number that suits you for the day and we ring it when the car is ready to collect.

What the Annandale workshop handles

Bookings range from air conditioning faults and diagnostic investigations to brake or suspension repairs. We also fit tyres and batteries and repair transmissions and clutches.

For planned care, choose logbook servicing or arrange a pink slip inspection. The workshop also takes hybrid and electric cars, 4WD servicing and European vehicles.

Driving and parking around Glebe

A week of short trips gives the battery little time to recharge, and street parking puts tyres against kerbs. Check the tyre pressures once a month and ask for a battery test if the engine turns over slowly. If the air conditioning blows warm or the temperature gauge sits higher than usual, tell us before a long summer drive.

Use the owner's car check guide for a monthly routine. Our checklist for a long drive starts a week before departure. You can also review less obvious maintenance items and use the noise, odour and leak explainer to describe a developing fault.
