Everything we do in the bays
Independent logbook servicing, inspections and repairs at Unit 1/54 Export Drive, Molendinar. Hoists, diagnostics and tyre equipment on site.
Servicing
Logbook servicing
Australian Consumer Law lets you service at an independent workshop without voiding the manufacturer warranty — as long as the work follows the schedule and uses the right specification of oil, filters and parts. That is the job we do at Driven Autocare.
Logbook servicingDiagnostics
Diagnostics
A check-engine light is a stored code, not a shopping list. We connect dealer-level scan tools, read manufacturer-specific codes (not just generic P-codes), look at live data and then quote the repair.
DiagnosticsAir conditioning
Air conditioning
Gold Coast summers punish condensers, seals and cabin filters. A regas is often the fix — but only if the system holds a vacuum. Guessing with a can from the parts shop is how you pay twice.
Air conditioningBrakes
Brakes
Wheels off, pads measured, discs checked for thickness and runout. You get a number for your car before anything is fitted.

Batteries
Short Gold Coast trips and summer heat kill batteries. We test the battery and the charging system before we sell you one — a new battery on a sick alternator is a waste of money.

Pre-purchase inspection
A safety certificate is the legal minimum to sell. A pre-purchase inspection is whether you should buy. We do both — on a hoist, with a scan tool, then a road test.
