Automotive Servicing and Repairs in Kadina

Alongside our marine work, Sawley's Auto and Marine services and repairs cars of any make or model from our Kadina workshop. From routine logbook servicing to diagnosing a problem that's been nagging at your car, our automotive team covers the day-to-day mechanical work that keeps a vehicle safe and reliable.

What's Involved

  • Logbook servicing to help maintain your new car warranty
  • Oil, filter and fluid changes
  • Brake, suspension and steering checks and repairs
  • Fault finding and diagnostics using scan tools
  • Cooling system, belt and hose inspections
  • General mechanical repairs and upgrades

If a warning light has come on, the car is making a noise it shouldn't, or something just doesn't feel right behind the wheel, bring it in and we'll work through the fault before recommending any repair.

Vehicles We Work On

We service and repair passenger vehicles, 4WDs and light commercial vehicles across the range of makes and models, whether it's a daily driver, a tow vehicle for the boat, or a car still under new-vehicle warranty. We also repair the trailer that tows it — see our trailer and brake repairs service.

Where We Work

All automotive servicing and repairs are carried out at our Kadina workshop.

Staying on Top of Servicing

Regular servicing is what catches small issues — a worn belt, a slow brake fluid leak, a fault not yet triggering a warning light — before they turn into an expensive repair or a breakdown on the Yorke Peninsula's back roads. Logbook servicing on schedule also helps protect your new car warranty.

Getting Ready to Book

When you call to book your car in, let us know the make, model and what you've noticed, along with your rego and any relevant service history. It helps us plan the work and have the right parts on hand where possible.
