What We Do
We provide mechanical repairs for all vehicle makes and models. From minor fixes to major overhauls, our skilled mechanics quickly diagnose and resolve issues. Whether it’s engine troubles, oil leaks or fuel inefficiencies, we ensure your car runs smoothly and efficiently.
Our brake and clutch repairs improve safety and performance. We inspect, repair and replace worn components to ensure smooth braking and seamless gear changes. Whether it’s brake pad replacements, hydraulic repairs, or clutch adjustments, our team delivers precise workmanship.
Advanced car diagnostics quickly identify vehicle issues, saving time and preventing costly repairs. Using state-of-the-art equipment, we detect engine faults, electrical malfunctions and sensor failures. This ensures accurate troubleshooting, allowing for prompt and effective repairs.
CV joint repairs maintain smooth handling and drivetrain performance. Worn or damaged CV joints can cause clicking noises, vibrations and loss of control. We inspect, replace and lubricate components to prevent further damage, ensuring a safer and more comfortable driving experience.
Engine reconditioning restores power and efficiency. Our service includes diagnosing issues, replacing worn components and optimising engine performance. Whether it is minor repairs or full reconditioning, we ensure your engine runs at peak efficiency.
Suspension and steering services improve handling and stability. We inspect and replace worn shocks, struts, ball joints and tie rods to enhance ride comfort and safety. Properly maintained suspension and steering systems reduce tyre wear and provide better control on all road conditions.
Logbook servicing follows manufacturer specifications to maintain vehicle performance and warranty compliance. We complete all required checks, including oil and filter changes, fluid top-ups and safety inspections. Regular logbook servicing keeps your car running efficiently and prevents costly mechanical issues.
Safety certificates confirm a vehicle meets roadworthy standards. We inspect key components, including brakes, suspension, lights and tyres, ensuring compliance with legal requirements. Whether selling, re-registering or transferring ownership, a valid safety certificate provides assurance that the vehicle is safe for use.
Who We Are
Coolangatta Automotive’s owner, Shane, loves all things mechanical. A born and bred local, Shane built his 1972 Rambler Hornet from the ground up in his 20’s. Since then, he has worked in the mechanical services industry and founded his business in Coolangatta 13 years ago, keeping it completely family-owned and operated. From basic tune-ups to more advanced mechanical procedures, Shane and the rest of our team can do it all.
We also have a particular enthusiasm for servicing and rebuilding older model cars, but we extend our expertise to all types and models of vehicles, including 4WDs, trailers and caravans.
If you’re in need of some good old-fashioned service, we’re the team to call. Whether you're on the Gold Coast or Tweed Heads, you'll receive quality work from us.
