    Diesel service - Cockburn

    Can anyone recomend a good mechanic in the Cockburn area?
    The big white beastie TD42 needs a service and a good eye cast over her to point out any potential problems. The main part is a good injector and pump service, which should, I stress "should" give me a couple of extra kW/nM and the extra mile or two from the tank.
    Thanks in advance!
    Paul

    Sorry, in Perth, South of the river.

    Un-amusingly, the "ck" is silent.

    Hi Paul
    I live in Dawesville and there is a gr8 mobile mechanic in Mandurah. He has about 5 GQ's on his books. He used to be a Nissan mechanic in Kalgoorlie. I highly recommend, he does all the jobs on mine that I don't feel like doing or are beyond me. I'll PM you with his details. Not sure if he goes that far, but it'd worth the effort to go down to him if he doesn't as he prefers to work in his workshop.

    no suggestions for general servicing/mechanical, but for injectors and pump, worth the drive up to Gt Eastern Hwy and talk to Matt or Steve at United Fuel Injection

    Len, can you please pm me your mechanic's details. Obviously you're happy with the pricing?

    Take care out there.
