AVR AUTOMOTIVE

For over 20 years AVR has offered automotive expertise with an emphasis on high quality work and excellent customer service.

We’re a locally owned, family run business that’s staffed by professionals who care about the needs of both you, and your vehicle.

Our Car Services

Brakes

Regular brake servicing is essential to maintaining the safety of your car. If your vehicle is unable to brake suddenly or come to a complete stop within a matter of seconds, the lives of both you and those in your car are at risk every time you drive.
At AVR Automotive we take working on the safety features of every car incredibly seriously. Our comprehensive brake servicing plans ensure that your brakes are thoroughly checked for wear and tear and promptly replaced if necessary.

Car Service

As cars age, it’s inevitable that small issues begin to arise as the components within your vehicle begin to deteriorate slowly.
Our qualified mechanics at AVR Automotive specialise in inspecting and conducting repairs that can extend the life of your car and safeguard it against potential problems into the future.

Car Repair

When something goes wrong with your car, it’s important to get it back on the road as soon as possible. We all own cars, so we understand how losing yours for even a day can completely disrupt your schedule.
That’s why at AVR Automotive, we’ve built our reputation on swift and decisive repair work. We aim to restore your vehicle to a roadworthy state as quickly and cost efficiently as possible, providing excellent customer service and quality advice as we do so.

Air-Conditioning Service

Under the harsh Brisbane sun, rolling down the windows sometimes isn’t an option. Properly functioning air-conditioning ensures that every drive is a comfortable one. We cover the complete range of air-con services, from specialised A/C leak tests to mould and harmful bacteria checks.
We also specialise in gas system recharging, which can guarantee that your air conditioning runs cooler and more efficiently throughout even the hottest Queensland summer.

Suspension and Steering Services

How well your car handles is crucial to staying in control when on the road. Our staff at AVR Automotive are on hand to ensure that your steering and suspension never leave you feeling like you’re unsafe when you drive through a bump or a bend in the road.

Oil Service

Regular oil maintenance is essential to the proper running of your vehicle. Replacing the oil in your vehicle or swapping out an oil filter is a messy process that may leave your garage or driveway looking like a slippery mess. Let the professional staff at AVR Automotive take the hassle out of routine oil changes, giving you more time to enjoy your vehicle rather than worry about its needs.

Car Batteries

There’s nothing worse than getting in your car and having it fail to turn over and start. A regular battery check provided by our trained professionals at AVR Automotive ensures that you’ll never have to worry about being stranded with a dead battery.

4WD Touring

Out in the wilderness, your 4WD needs to stand up to everything that mother nature can throw at it. When it’s time to upgrade your rig, you can trust the team at AVR Automotive have the expertise to get the job done right. We have the tools on hand to fit everything from suspension lift kits and electric brake systems, to tray mounts and roof rack awnings.

Wheel Alignment

Hitting even a small pothole in the road can cause your wheels to become misaligned. Poor wheel alignment may seem like it just results in your car handling slightly worse. But in reality, it can cause long-term damage to your vehicle if left unattended. Extend the lifespan of your tyres by booking a routine wheel alignment with our trained mechanics today. We know the roads can be rough around Brisbane, so trust the team at AVR Automotive to help you get the most out of your vehicle.

Safety Certificates

If you’re looking to sell or re-register a car, it’s essential that you seek the help of qualified mechanics to provide a comprehensive safety check on the vehicle in question. Our qualified technicians at AVR Automotive inspect the vehicle before issuing a certificate that confirms your car meets the minimum safety standards at the date of issue.

Safety Certificates

Courtesy Cars

Car maintenance and repair should never get in the way of your daily routine. That’s why we offer courtesy car services that help you keep up with your busy life while your car is undergoing work. Contact one of our friendly staff today to discuss how we can make your next car service completely hassle free.

Safety Certificates

12 Month Warranties

That’s right, all of our work is backed by a stunning 12-month warranty. We work hard every single day to provide a quality of service that’s second to none. This doesn’t mean however that we aren’t always keeping an open mind as to how we can better help our customers achieve peace of mind before, during and after their car servicing or repair.

Qualified Auto Technicians

Rest assured that all of our employees at AVR Automotive have been trained to the highest possible standards available in Australia. Not only does it let us better service the needs of our customers throughout North Brisbane, it gives us the ability to complete our work quicker and far more cost efficiently.

Passing more value onto our customers is why we only hire the best, and we think you’ll notice the difference at AVR Automotive.

I purchased a vehicle whilst in Brisbane for the school holidays and realised it needed a lot of work done to it. AVR worked in with my tight schedule to complete what turned into a mammoth job, ensuring my children and I were able to travel the 800km home safely towing our camper. Can't rate the team highly enough for thorough and professional work.read more

I met Paul and his Team over 10 years ago. Needed a super reliable and honest mechanic who could service several rep vehicles, as well as personal vehicles. Workmanship, time frames and overall cost has been excellent. I moved 45 min away from the area 4 years ago and still could not imagine taking my vehicles anywhere else.... Super loyal to Paul and his Team... I highly recommend stopping in and checking out AVR for yourself!read more

Fantastic service, would recommend without hesitation. Thoroughly inspected my 4wd vehicle before a major (and long overdue) service to identify everything that was required to be done. Then called me in to explain what should be done, and what other work could be deferred. As a result, I'll trade up - but my next vehicle will be going there for servicing and upgrades. Thank you to Paul, Dave and the team.read more

Simply fantastic! Paul, Dave and the team at ARV are professional, honest and are more interested in providing customer service than making as much money as they can out of you. I have been going there for some time now, after our previous mechanic moved interstate. We are very particular with our vehicles, and they are just as particular with them when working on them. They have an amazing up to date, and very clean work shop, and we couldn't recommend them enough. Well done on creating a fantastic local business.read more

I've been shopping around for someone to service my car since my last mechanic sold up a few years ago. I wanted someone, thorough so I can have peace of mind. With A.V.R Automotive, I have found a small business that cares more about the condition of my car than I do... They seemed to want to care for my vehicle as if it was their own. Can't fault that!read more

I took my partner’s car their for a service. Wow, how professional are they. Presentation of staff & reception was first class. Friendly & efficient. The car was ready at the time they anticipated. When I picked up the car, they explained everything they did & showed me photos of parts they replaced (before & after photos to show wearing). When I went into the car to drive off, their was a bag of lollies with their business logo on the bag. What a nice touch. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone. They take pride in your car.read more

We were recommended here by a friend who had been coming here for years and after our service can see exactly why they have been trusted with our friends cars for so long. Everything was explained in layman's terms, we were given options to rectify things that could be an issue moving forward without being told that it was 100% necessary like other services we have had in the past, and the price was more than competitive. Our thanks to Dave and the team!read more

I have been taking my car to A.V.R.

Exceptional service.Can’t say enough good things about this place. I chose to check out AVR after reading the glowing reviews and I wasn’t disappointed. It is everything the reviews have said and more. Friendly and very professional staff, clean workshop and waiting room. The work carried out on my car was exceptionally well done and documented. They even emailed me during the day with detailed photos and notes of other issues they found, along with a quote to correct them if I wished to go ahead with the work. My 12-year-old car now feels and drives like it did 10 years ago. Previously I had been going to the dealer network, never again; I will remain a customer of AVR. Thank you guys and keep up the great work.read more

After finding AVR Automotive on the internet and phoning first, I was able to book my 1996 Toyota Starlet in for a very urgent wheel bearing replacement at short notice. Was so grateful for their very prompt accommodating service. It was my first visit to a mechanic in very many years (why I left it too long) and the nerves were horrendous, but Paul’s excellent communication skills, expertise, patience and respectfulness soon reassured me, as did the huge, clean, organised, spacious, extraordinarily well equipped and busy workshop and smiling friendly staff.Similarly the clean, tidy, well equipped and very comfortable waiting room showed a respect and thoughtfulness for their customers, even with access to the remote control to change the channel on the TV and a free coffee coupon for the delightful coffee shop over the road. The work was done so quickly and the warranty on the work gives me confidence of a job well done. The very loud left side rear end whining noise is gone (no it wasn’t a mother-in-law), and I know what I am up for in the future.You really do get what you pay for. Thank you so much to the Team at AVR Automotive.read more

Wow. AVR are a great example of amazing customer focus. After a long history of servicing through VW (mostly unsatisfied) I am happy to say that i am now converted to a local mechanic. The guys at AVR have earned my trust. They treated me like I was a king, did an amazing job and the pricing was almost 50% cheaper than VW. A well deserved 5.read more
