@@@@@
I was recommended to visit their shop and was beyond impressed with the efficiency and expertise they demonstrated. Not only did they promptly service my car and fix a water pump issue the same day at a fair price, but Gil also went above and beyond by conducting a thorough diagnostic and providing me with a detailed report. He even identified a leakage problem and instead of taking advantage on it, he advised me to contact my car manufacturer, knowing it was a common issue for my car model. Gil assisted me in communicating with the manufacturer, resulting in the issue being resolved at no cost to me. Their professionalism and integrity are superb! Thank you, Gil!Hi Giulio. Thank you both for the rating and also taking the time to explain exactly why you gave Gil this rating it is much apprecited.

Most impressed by Gil diagnostic service re a coolant issue on my Audi SQ5, and very good advice for making claim on manufacturer. Dispassionate advice that will save me a lot of money but for which they wouldn’t even charge. They certainly have my future business. Very nice people too, Harold and Gil.

@@@@@
Late on the review but wanted to see how it all worked out on the long term. Been a fair while ago since they fixed my oil leak on my VW Passat. Time cover leak I believe and maybe a coil has been replaced too. Unfortunately once of my sensors had to be replaced in the process while fixing the other issue. All together it wasn’t per se a cheap operation but the result was perfect as so far no issues with the fixed problems. Happy with the service and quality of the repairs. Been informed all throughout the process. Would recommend and trust this place for serious car problems and bigger jobs. « less

We’ve been taking our cars to Gil for over 20 years and highly recommend him. He’s highly organised, honest, reliable, caring and thorough. No work proceeds without your consent, you’ll always know the cost and can be sure the job’s done right, the first time. If he doesn’t specialise, he’ll refer you to a trusted service provider, like for replacement tyres and wheel alignment.

I use to go to Toyota for servicing.
After years of average service , I tried my local Gil Sher.

5 Star Review – Nicole Drenovac
@@@@@
Gil continues to exceed my expectations! He calmly talked me through (over the phone) the potential issue with my car breaking down and not starting, whilst I was in all sorts. However, despite that issue being fixed, there was also an underlying problem that wasn’t going away. Gil took my car in and stayed back late to diagnose and fix the underlying issue, despite it being a very busy week for him, so I could have a working car in time for the holidays. I couldn’t ask for a more patient, thoughtful and dedicated mechanic. You are one in a million Gil!!

Over the years, I have always found Gil Auto to be honest, fair priced, very helpful and efficient to deal with. Rego checks are also quick and easy. I have used other mechanics in the Bondi Junction area, and found them to be sub standard in their honesty and way over a reasonable or fair price. NOTE: I have sent several friends to Gil Auto also, and they are all regulars ever since.

Will definitely use these guys in future. Thanks for great customer service.

I went to Gil Auto after two other mechanics failed to diagnose/fix my Honda’s engine trouble. The service there is absolutely fantastic, would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a good mechanic. Gil is extremely knowledgeable and was able to diagnose the problem just by turning the engine on. He explained everything in great detail and even showed me the faulty parts. I found Gil and Harold to be professional, friendly, honest, and they went above and beyond to help me out. I was kept up-to-date on the progress and the prices are very reasonable. Will definitely be taking my car there from now on

Gil Auto really saved me!! After having had the car in to be fixed they attached a keychain with their info meaning if I lost my key and someone found it they would know where to take it. Let me tell you this system works! I thought my key was gone until I received a text from Gil Auto stating a set of keys had been handed back to them (thank you kind stranger). I feel so lucky because I wouldn’t have thought to do this myself so a MASSIVE thanks to you for fixing my car and returning my keys to me! And being so nice! Susan

@@@@@
Gil Auto is one of the few places that all our friends agree on recommending. Honest and puts the customers best interests at heart. Recommended an unrelated business for some more specialised work rather than taking the money and “having a go” as many would. Also recommended not to do 4.5k of work with him but to replace the car, I wonder how many other mechanics would have been so selfless?

5 Star Review – Adam Leizer
@@@@@
I felt my brakes needed attention so last Thursday I phoned Harold to see if Gil could service my car the following day (Friday). They could and the brakes were serviced properly. I noticed the difference immediately. Four days later I was driving and a school student suddenly ran across the road from behind a bus. Although I was travelling slowly, due to the short distance, we collided and he bounced off my front passenger corner.
Luckily he was uninjured apart for a few scratches. It is possible that without getting that service slot for the brake work there may have been an entirely different outcome. Thanks very much to Gil Auto for helping me out last Friday.

5 Star Review – Andrea Cohen
@@@@@
Myself and family have been going to Gil Auto for years and recommend it strongly to anyone who is looking for a good quality, reasonable and trustworthy service provider.
I was particularly impressed with my most recent service where they went out of their way to not perform a service that was not required, saving us hundreds of dollars. We were not aware of this and they happily could have collected a fee without us being aware, but as always they did the right thing.
The service has always been excellent and to have it met with such sincere integrity is why we will keep coming back! Thank you Gil and Harold, it is always a pleasure to do business with you.
Hi Andrea this how we maintain our position as a source of trust in the community. Trust cannot be bought is it earned. Thank you for your post.

Thanks Gil

I used to live near here and Gil was my local mechanic. I’ve since moved and will now drive an hour just to service my car with him. Highly trust-worthy and a true expert at what he does.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review Nathaniel. We absolutely appreciate the effort that you make to continue to bring your car to Gil Auto and we are pleased to have you as one of our loyal and long-standing customers.

After 3 services and now a brake replacement I can’t recommend Gil more. Having family in the automotive industry I know too well how badly Dealer Service Centres can be, with inexperienced up selling apprentice mechanics. So I appreciate how Gil’s seems to always leave my late model Subaru driving better with quality parts and replacements, with no up selling or unnecessary replacements. I would say I have a fair amount of mechanical knowledge and a fair idea of the cost of parts at trade price and in reviewing my invoice find no discrepancies even after allowing other mechanics to view it. And I believe the service charges are commensurate with the level of service I receive. I’m very proud to have Gil’s name in my log book and intend to use him as long as I’m in Sydney. You could go to a cheaper, dodgy, lesser mechanic, or go to your expensive yet redundant Dealership, but neither will match Gil’s. Thank you Gil, see you in another 5000km
Thanks for the positive review Nick. It’s gratifying to be acknowledged for our personalised service, attention to detail and commitment to ensuring our customers’ safety from someone who understand the automotive industry.

Extremely thorough, we have been using Gil for many many years. Do not come here if you want to get a dodgy car through rego or for a cheapo quick fix, they do things properly here.

We are grateful for your loyalty as a customer and are delighted to hear that you appreciate the extra effort that we go to, to ensure that the vehicles in our care are serviced properly – definitely no cutting corners here!

I was very surprised to see the comment from the lady above. I have been with Gil for over 5 years now and have had nothing but reliable, honest and dependable service from Gil and his team. In fact my whole family uses Gil, including my Parents and Brother who all refer to Gil as an absolute Gentleman.
Thank you for the positive review Gideon. We are grateful to you and your family members for being long-standing customers, and we are delighted that you find our service to be reliable, honest and dependable.
