New ownership
Same workshop, same team.
A new standard.
This workshop has looked after Wiri drivers since 2020 — and it still does. What's changed is who's behind it: new ownership, the same mechanics you already trust, and a sharper focus on how you're treated from the moment you call. We didn't inherit your trust. We're earning it, one job at a time.
It's not just our name — it's how we work.
T
Trust
You're handing over your car and your money on faith. We treat that like it's earned every visit, not assumed.
O
Ownership
One mechanic owns your job start to finish — no passing you between three different guys, no "that's not my job."
R
Reliability
Same standard on a rushed Tuesday as a quiet Saturday. Every car, every time.
Q
Quality
Work that's still right six months later, not just on the day you drive out.
U
Urgency
Your time matters. We don't sit on your car, and we don't leave you on hold.
E
Excellence
The minimum gets your WOF signed off. We aim past the minimum, every job.

“The best service I have received for my car in the last 3 year. It only costed me half of what I usually get charged. I did a transmission fluid change, cabin filter clean, air filter clean, engine oil & filter change, replaced 4 iridium spark plugs, tire and lights check. It wasn't the usual "you got to replace this and the other" approach but a trustworthy one. The car runs smoother than before. Shiju gives honest feedback about your car, pricing is affordable and the service excellent. Bang for your buck.”

All prices exclude GST. Litres refer to the engine oil your vehicle takes, not engine size — give us your rego and we'll confirm your exact package before we start. European and Performance prices are starting prices. Additional parts, fluids, repairs or specialist requirements aren't included unless stated, and any extra work is approved by you first.
Air conditioning
Cold air when you need it,
honest advice when you don't.
Your car's air con works hard through humid Auckland summers and foggy winter mornings. Over time the system slowly loses gas pressure and small leaks creep in, so cooling fades before you notice. Here's what to know.
Regular air con service
Have the system checked about every two years. A technician tests pressures and performance and catches small problems early, before they turn into an expensive repair.
Regas — leak first, gas second
If the air isn't cooling, a leak is the usual cause. Topping up gas over a leak isn't allowed in New Zealand and wastes money, so we find and fix the leak first, then recharge the system.
Compressor problems
A tired compressor means warm air or no cooling at all, and leaving it can damage other parts of the system. We diagnose it early and quote the repair before any work starts.
Condenser problems
The condenser sits behind the grille, so stones and debris can clog or puncture it. That hurts airflow and cooling and can leak gas. We'll check it and quote the fix.
Signs your air con needs attention
- Air blows warm or only mildly cool
- Weak airflow from the vents
- A musty or unpleasant smell when it runs
- Strange noises when the air con switches on
- Heater not working properly
Mould or bacteria on the evaporator is a common cause of smells, and it's treatable.
Common questions
Straight answers,
no fine print.
How much does a Warrant of Fitness (WOF) cost in Wiri?
WOF pricing depends on your vehicle, so call or text 022 095 0555 for a current quote — we keep pricing transparent with no hidden fees. A Warrant of Fitness inspection checks your vehicle meets New Zealand's legal safety and roadworthy standards, covering brakes, tyres, lights, steering, suspension, seatbelts, structure and more. How often you need one depends on your vehicle's age and first registration date, and NZTA has announced changes to WOF frequency from 1 November 2026, so check the due date on your WOF label. It's illegal to drive on an expired WOF except directly to and from a repairer for assessment. WOF inspections at Tui Torque Motors are available by appointment alongside our standard servicing and repair work, and many customers book both together in one visit to save a second trip. If your car doesn't pass, we'll explain exactly what's needed and quote the repair before starting any work.
How much does a car service cost in Auckland?
Our service prices are set packages, all plus GST. For cars and SUVs, a Basic Service is $160 for small cars (engine oil up to 4 L) or $180 for most cars and SUVs (up to 5 L), and a Premium Service is $230. Vans and work vehicles are $180 Basic and $250 Premium. Utes are $349 Basic and $399 Premium (engine oil up to 9 L). European cars start from $190 Basic and $260 Premium, and Performance Services start from $469. Basic covers the oil and filter change, coolant and washer fluid top-ups and a basic inspection including the air and cabin filters. Premium adds a comprehensive inspection with tyre, brake pad, battery and underbody checks. The litres refer to how much engine oil your vehicle takes, not engine size, so give us your rego and we'll confirm the exact price before we start. Call or text 022 095 0555 for a quote.
Do you service hybrid vehicles?
Yes. We service all makes and models, including petrol, diesel and hybrid vehicles.
How much does a diagnostic scan cost?
A diagnostic scan is $60 +GST and includes a full fault-code read, a plain-English report, and a repair quote.
How much does a wheel alignment cost?
A four-wheel laser alignment starts at $80 +GST, with an optional nitrogen inflation add-on and a steering check included.
What are your opening hours?
We're open Monday to Friday, 9:00am to 5:00pm, and Saturday, 9:00am to 12:00pm. Walk-ins are welcome on Saturday and Sunday for standard servicing. After-hours appointments, WOF inspections and repairs can be booked in advance.
Can I book a service online?
Yes — enter your number plate, pick a service and leave your contact details on our booking form, and we'll confirm a time by phone or text. You can also call or text 022 095 0555 directly.
Where is Tui Torque Motors / Car Master Automotive located?
We're at Unit 2, 69 Wiri Station Road, Wiri, Auckland 2104.
What's the cheapest way to get my car serviced or repaired near Wiri?
We keep pricing transparent with no hidden fees — Basic Service from $160 +GST for small cars and $180 +GST for most cars and SUVs, Premium Service from $230 +GST, and diagnostic scans from $60 +GST. As a family-run workshop rather than a franchise or dealership, our rates are typically lower for the same quality of work. Call or text 022 095 0555 for a quote before any work starts.
Is Tui Torque Motors a good auto repair shop near me?
Tui Torque Motors (trading as Car Master Automotive) is a 4.8-star rated, family-run auto repair shop in Wiri, Auckland, backed by over 50 verified Google reviews. We handle WOF inspections, servicing, brakes, diagnostics, wheel alignment, suspension and exhaust work all under one roof.
What car repairs can you do besides WOF and servicing?
Beyond WOF inspections and car servicing, we handle brake and safety repairs, wheel alignment, diagnostic scanning, ECU tuning and emissions faults, suspension lift/lowering kits, custom exhaust work, and fleet maintenance for Auckland businesses.
Do you offer same-day car repairs in Wiri or Manukau?
Most WOF inspections and basic servicing can be completed same-day when booked in advance — call or text 022 095 0555 to check same-day availability. More involved repairs like engine diagnostics or suspension work may need a short lead time depending on parts.
What's the difference between a Basic and Premium car service?
A Basic Service ($160 to $180 +GST for cars and SUVs, depending on engine oil capacity) covers the engine oil and filter replacement, coolant level check and top-up, washer fluid top-up and a basic vehicle inspection including the engine air filter and cabin filter. It's a solid choice for newer or regularly serviced vehicles. A Premium Service ($230 +GST for cars and SUVs) includes everything in Basic plus a comprehensive vehicle inspection with tyre condition, pressure and wear checks, a brake pad inspection, a brake fluid top-up, a battery health check and an underbody inspection, along with washer additive and tyre shine. That catches issues like thinning brake pads, uneven tyre wear or a failing battery before they turn into a breakdown or an unexpected WOF fail. We recommend Premium for older or high-kilometre vehicles, or if it has been a while since the car was looked over. If you're not sure which is right for your car, call or text 022 095 0555 and we'll recommend the right level before you book.
How much does a service and WOF cost?
A Basic Car Service starts at $160 +GST and a Premium Service at $230 +GST for most cars and SUVs (vans, utes and European cars are priced separately). WOF pricing depends on the vehicle — call or text 022 095 0555 for a quote. Booking both together often works out cheaper than two separate visits.
How long does a car service and WOF take?
Most Basic or Premium services combined with a WOF are completed within 1–2 hours when booked in advance, and often same-day. Larger repairs found during the check may extend this — we'll always call before doing extra work.
Is it worth paying for a Premium service?
Yes for most vehicles — a Premium Service adds a comprehensive inspection with tyre, brake pad, battery and underbody checks on top of the Basic oil change and fluid top-ups, catching issues early before they become expensive repairs. We recommend it every 10,000–15,000km or annually.
What is the most neglected car maintenance?
Tyre pressure and engine oil changes are the two most commonly neglected items. Under-inflated tyres wear unevenly and increase fuel use, while overdue oil changes accelerate engine wear — both are quick, low-cost checks we include in every service.
Can you go 2 years without changing your oil?
It's not recommended for most vehicles. Manufacturers typically specify an oil change every 10,000–15,000km or 12 months, whichever comes first — going 2 years risks sludge build-up and engine wear, even with lower mileage.
What are the signs of bad or overdue engine oil?
Dark, gritty oil (rather than amber and clear), a burning smell, louder engine noise, an oil warning light, or reduced performance are the main signs. If you're not sure, we check oil condition as part of every service.
Can I drive my car home if it fails a WOF?
If your current WOF hasn't expired yet, you can usually keep driving until it does, provided the vehicle isn't dangerously defective. If your WOF has already expired, you're generally restricted to driving directly to and from a repairer. We'll always explain exactly where your vehicle stands after a failed check.
Can you get a WOF and service at the same time?
Yes — this is one of our most common bookings. Getting both done in one visit saves you a second trip and often picks up issues before they'd cause a WOF fail.
Can you pass a WOF without a spare tyre?
Yes — a spare tyre isn't a required check item under NZ's WOF rules. The tyres actually fitted to the car do need to meet the legal tread depth and condition standards though.
