Car service Darwin
« on: July 08, 2014, 06:28:44 PM »
Hi All

I need to get my Patrol serviced while I am working in Darwin. I have tried the local dealer and they want $150 more than I have been paying and all day for a minor service . Any recommendations, or who to stay away from.

I used St Johns ambulance when I was there last year and they did a good job and were quite reasonable

I didn't know they did car servicing.

Hi RMB,
Just checked my service book & it was definitely serviced by St  Johns & they are located in the light industrial area.

First up stay away from Kerry's Nissan -- I had quite a bad experience with them
and I am not the only one.

Stay away from Kerry's. Only go there at about 4:00 pm to watch the upset customers to see for yourself why you shouldn't go there.

I used and recommend Paul's Service Centre, a Repco franchise in Winnellie. 6 Charlton Court
Stuart Park? NT? 0820, +61 8 8941 1322. Excellent work reasonably priced.

I ended up with K-Mart at Casurina. Reasonable price and OK service.

Waking this thread up guys. My son needs to get his 2004 commodore checked and transferred over to NT plates. I want somebody who will be fair and honest . I will give a few of these a call.
Here for a good time, not a long time!
