What Caboolture Drivers Says
Dropped my car off in the morning and it was ready before lunch. They fixed an annoying noise, serviced my car, and replaced the CV shaft on another visit. Reliable, honest, and they genuinely care about safety. You can tell they take pride in their work. Highly recommend
I can’t thank Garry’s Mechanical enough. The day before Christmas Eve my van broke down, and I desperately needed it for the days ahead. They took on the job straight away and told me they always stay open for a couple of hours on Christmas Eve without bookings, just in case someone breaks down. That level of kindness honestly meant the world to me because this year, that someone was me.
I had my van back the very next day. They were super honest throughout and even called me before doing the work to talk through the costs. What started as a small job turned into a longer one, and they still stayed back to get it finished.
I’m incredibly grateful for such kind, genuine people and great workmanship. Couldn’t recommend Garry’s Mechanical more highly.
I would recommend and definitely, I'll come back again. Thanks team. Fah

Why Regular Car AC Servicing Matters
Your vehicle’s air conditioning system does more than just cool you down — it also filters the air, removes humidity, and helps with window defogging.
Over time, refrigerant levels drop and seals can dry out, reducing cooling efficiency and causing unpleasant smells. Without regular maintenance, you risk:
- Reduced cooling or warm air from vents
- Higher fuel consumption
- Compressor or condenser damage
- Bacterial build-up in vents
- Costly component replacement
That’s why it’s smart to have your AC system checked every 12 months — ideally before Queensland’s summer heat kicks in.
What’s Included in Our Air Conditioning Service
When you book an air conditioning service at Garry’s Mechanical Repairs, you can expect a full, professional system check by licensed technicians.
Our comprehensive service includes:
- Air conditioning performance test
- Visual inspection of hoses, belts, pulleys, and seals
- Leak detection and repair using dye and electronic testing
- Re-gassing / refrigerant refill (R134a or R1234yf depending on model)
- Compressor and condenser inspection
- Evaporator and cabin air filter check or replacement

Signs Your Car’s AC Needs Attention
If you notice any of these symptoms, your system likely needs servicing:
- Warm or weak airflow from vents
- Musty or mouldy smell when AC is on
- AC clutch not engaging
- Loud noises or rattling from compressor
- Foggy windows that take longer to clear
- Water leaking onto floor mats
Bring your car in early — fixing small issues now prevents major compressor or gas leaks later.
