At Mobile Mechanic Durban, we bring a fully equipped mobile workshop to your driveway, office car park, or wherever your vehicle is parked — so you never need to waste a day sitting in a workshop waiting room.
Our minor service includes an engine oil and filter change, air filter inspection or replacement, spark plug check, and a thorough fluid top-up covering coolant, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and windscreen washer. We also carry out a multi-point inspection covering your belts, hoses, tyres, lights, wipers, and battery condition. For vehicles doing daily N2 or M4 commutes, we recommend a minor service every 10,000 to 15,000 km to keep everything running smoothly — read our guide on how often you should service your car in South Africa for more detail.
A major service goes further. We replace the oil filter, air filter, fuel filter, and spark plugs as required by your vehicle manufacturer's schedule. We flush and refill the coolant system — something especially important in Durban's humid, salt-air climate where corrosion can attack cooling components faster than in drier inland regions. We inspect the braking system, suspension, exhaust, and drivetrain, and we check for any fault codes using our OBD2 diagnostic scanner.
Our full service option covers everything in the major service plus additional items such as gearbox oil replacement, differential fluid check, throttle body cleaning, and a comprehensive under-bonnet inspection. This is ideal for older vehicles, high-mileage bakkies, and cars that have missed one or more scheduled services.
We service all makes and models on South African roads — from Toyota Hilux and Ford Ranger bakkies to VW Polo, Hyundai i20, BMW 3 Series, and Mercedes-Benz C-Class. We use quality OEM-equivalent parts and reputable oil brands, and every service comes with a detailed checklist so you know exactly what was done. Whether you are in Umhlanga, Durban North, Westville, or Pinetown, we bring the workshop to you. Wondering what a service should cost? See our 2026 Durban car service pricing guide for a full breakdown.
Minor service: R1,200–R2,500 | Major service: R2,500–R5,500 | Full service: R3,500–R8,000. Prices vary by vehicle make and model.
All prices are estimates. We provide a firm quote after inspecting your vehicle. No hidden fees — you approve the price before we start.
We recommend every 10,000–15,000 km or once a year, whichever comes first. Durban's humidity and salt air can accelerate wear on certain components, so sticking to your service schedule is especially important here.
Absolutely. Many of our customers book services during work hours and we complete the job in their office car park. All we need is a flat, reasonably level surface with enough space to work safely.
We use quality OEM-equivalent parts and reputable brands. If you prefer genuine dealer parts, we can source those too — just let us know when booking and we will provide an adjusted quote.
