How a service runs
Nothing happens without your OK
Four beats, the same every visit. It's how the prices stay honest — and why the phone call always comes before the work.
Step 01 / 04
Book it in
Call, or send a booking request with a day that suits. Drop the car off before 8:30 am — or use the key drop box before or after hours.
Step 02 / 04
It gets looked over properly
The service follows what your car actually needs — the logbook schedule, plus whatever the inspection turns up.
Step 03 / 04
You get the call first
Before any work goes ahead: what needs doing now, what can safely wait, and what each option costs. Nothing starts without your OK.
Step 04 / 04
Pick it up, price as quoted
The work is done and the bill matches what you agreed to. Need wheels for the day? A loan car is $45 — just book it ahead.

I visited Simply Subaroo recently for a head gasket repair on my '06 Forester, I am really happy with all the work done on my car! Charlie and his team are exceptional and made sure I wouldn't be coming back any sooner than for my next service. Charlie is up front and honest about all the work that was required and the costs involved before starting on something, and fixed up the mistakes my old mechanic made.. Charlie sent me photos of most of the repairs that needed to be done and explained every detail. I could not have made a better choice visiting this mechanic, every other place tried to rip me off quoting over 6 thousand dollars, even up to 10 thousand for just my head gaskets! I am confident in my car lasting a long while and have already put on a lot of kilometres with no issues. If you have the opportunity, this is the Subaru place to go!

Charles and his team did a wonderful job on my Subaru Liberty. I recently bought this car and wanted steering column and brakes repaired. They were available at short notice and even though I mixed up my dates and brought it in a day earlier they did the work. Moreover I need a wheel alignment and they arranged for it to be done by a group around the corner. Carriers like a dream now. Competitive price too!
