Cancel that booking straight away mate.



Theres a good mechanic in Pooraka, Called Danbe Auto Repairs.
Addy is 10a (i think) Ween Rd Pooraka, which is just of Research Road.


Not sure how much he has done with LS1s, as he's into Torrys, but if its just a standard service, you'll have no worries.

Number is 8349 4144 (think thats right, if not check the white pages) Brian is the owner.

should do it ur self, save on labour, i just did my engine oil, filter, gearbox pan gasket and new filter for that. didnt spend over 90 less then a few hr's i was good to go an feels so much better when u done it ur self known its done.

yeh i dont like ultra tune b4 we bought the car off ur my misses sister they took it there an 1200 later, n i can honestly say from wot thay aid needed doin i had a look an it didnt even look touched. but dont take everyones word. coz i think all have good an bad times.

It's good to go to a mechanic if you want to keep your service history up to date. The VN has a service history, which is why I'm taking her to a trusted mechanic. The XU6 on the other hand, doesn't have a service history, so we'll be doing that ourselves.

Better to go to a trusted mechanic that has been highly recommended, than a place you've heard bad stuff about.

The road it is off is Research Road Pooraka, then turn onto Ween road near the top, and its on the right hand side just before the 2nd side street.
