What we do
Servicing & repairs, done properly
Every job starts with a diagnosis and ends with an explanation. If it doesn't need doing, we'll tell you — plenty of our customers arrived expecting to buy more than they needed.
Pink Slip & eSafety Inspections
Rego due? We're a licensed eSafety inspection station on Riverstone Parade.
Blue Slip & Unregistered Vehicle Inspections
Bringing an unregistered, interstate or previously written-off vehicle back on the road? NSW requires a blue slip — a full identity and safety inspection — before it can be registered.
Logbook Servicing
Keep your warranty without paying dealer prices.
Brake & Clutch Repairs
Squealing, grinding, a spongy pedal, a clutch that grabs or slips — brakes and clutches tell you before they fail.
Engine Diagnostics
A check engine light is a message, not a verdict.
Suspension & Steering Repairs
Clunks over potholes, wandering on the M7, uneven tyre wear, a steering wheel that sits crooked — suspension and steering faults creep in gradually until one day the car feels wrong everywhere..
Tyres, Punctures & Wheel Balancing
New tyres, puncture repairs, rotations and balancing — booked as drop-off slots (9am and 11am weekdays, adjusted Saturday).
Battery Testing & Replacement
Slow cranking on cold mornings, dash lights that dim at idle, or a no-start that came from nowhere — batteries fail on their own schedule, usually at the worst one.
General Car Maintenance & Repairs
The long list of jobs that keep a car reliable: oil and filter changes, coolant and transmission fluids, drive belts, hoses, lights, wipers, and those small faults every other workshop sighs at..

All services & pricing infoHow it works
No surprises, by design
- 01
Book or walk in
Call the workshop or send an enquiry. Pink slips and punctures can walk in; bigger jobs get a slot so your day isn't wasted.
- 02
We inspect, you approve
We diagnose, show you what we found, and quote before touching anything. The number you approve is the number you pay.
- 03
Fixed, tested, explained
Work is done with quality parts, road-tested, and handed back with the old parts shown and the invoice itemised.
Where we work
Riverstone's workshop — five minutes from most of the North West
Customers drop cars with us from across the district — many rail to work from Riverstone station while we work. If you can reach Riverstone Parade, you've reached us.
Where is Switch Gear Automotive located?
196 Riverstone Parade, Riverstone NSW 2765 — on the main strip through Riverstone, minutes from Rouse Hill, Schofields, Box Hill and Marsden Park. Call 0416 692 292 if you need directions.
Do I need to book, or can I just come in?
Most services book online through this site — pick a service and a drop-off slot that suits. Pink slips and puncture repairs also welcome as walk-ins. Blue slips and engine diagnostics are phone bookings on 0416 692 292, because timing depends on the vehicle's condition.
How much will my repair cost?
We diagnose first, then quote — you approve the number before we start work. If we find something the quote didn't cover, we stop and call you. No invoice surprises is a house rule.
Do you provide a warranty on your work?
Yes — workmanship is warrantied, and parts carry their manufacturer's warranty. Confirm current warranty terms with us when we quote; we'll put them in writing on the invoice.
Talk to a mechanic, not a menu
