Service Area
Mechanic in Hillside
Hillside is twenty minutes away down the Melton Highway. Nearly every Hillside car we service has a commute built into it, and the odometer says so long before the calendar does.
Why Hillside drivers come to Sunshine North
A daily run down the Melton Highway or the Calder adds kilometres faster than a service sticker assumes, which brings the major service, the coolant and the transmission fluid due earlier than most people expect. We work to the manufacturer's interval by kilometres rather than by months, so nothing gets stretched an extra year because a windscreen sticker said it could.
Every job is quoted before we start and backed by our 12 Months / 20,000 km Warranty. If the repair is not worth doing, we will say so — plenty of the calls we take end with us telling someone their car is fine.

Questions from Hillside
Do you service cars from Hillside?
Yes. JustFix Automotive is at 120 Munro Ave, Sunshine North VIC 3020, 16 km from Hillside — about 20 minutes via the Melton Highway to Kings Road. Drop the car in the morning and most standard services are finished the same day.
How much does a car service cost for Hillside drivers?
The price depends on the car and which service is due, so we quote before starting rather than advertising a headline figure that changes at the counter. Tell us the make, model and roughly how many kilometres it has done and you get a firm price, itemised, with no obligation. Every repair is covered by our 12 Months / 20,000 km Warranty.
Will servicing here void my new car warranty?
No. Under Australian Consumer Law a manufacturer cannot require you to service at their dealership to keep a new car warranty. The work has to follow the manufacturer's schedule, using parts and fluids that meet the specification, and it has to be recorded — which is exactly what a stamped logbook from an independent workshop does.
Do I pay before or after the work?
After. We complete the agreed work, do a final quality check, then call you to collect and settle up. Nothing is charged upfront, and nothing beyond the quote happens without you approving it first.
