Your local Takanini workshop (formerly The Local Auto Clinic)

Many locals will remember us as The Local Auto Clinic. While the name has changed, the commitment to great service remains the same.

Mechanical repairs and car servicing in South Auckland

At Auto Super Shoppe Takanini, we provide a full range of mechanical services for most makes and models. Our workshop supports both routine maintenance and more complex repairs, helping you prevent breakdowns, improve vehicle performance, and stay safe on the road.

Regular vehicle servicing is one of the best ways to reduce long term repair costs. With consistent maintenance, you can catch minor issues early and keep your vehicle running efficiently. Our team can carry out servicing based on your manufacturer’s requirements, your vehicle’s age and mileage, and the type of driving you do. This helps protect your engine, improve fuel economy, and extend the life of your vehicle.

We also help with mechanical repairs large and small. Whether it’s brakes, suspension, steering, cooling system concerns, electrical faults, tyres, batteries or general repairs, we’ll take the time to assess the issue properly and talk you through what’s required. We believe customers should always understand what’s happening with their vehicle, so we communicate clearly and keep you informed throughout the job.

WOF inspections and WOF repairs in Takanini

Keeping your Warrant of Fitness up to date is essential, and our team is here to make it easy. We carry out WOF checks with care and consistency, and if something needs attention, we’ll clearly explain what’s required for your vehicle to meet the standard.

If your vehicle fails its WOF inspection, in many cases the required repairs can be completed right here at our Takanini workshop. This makes the process far simpler, as you don’t need to visit multiple providers. We can handle common WOF repairs such as brakes, tyres, lights, suspension and steering issues, and other roadworthy items, then help you complete the recheck process efficiently.

Honest advice and clear communication

Choosing the right mechanic is about more than just location. It’s about trust. Our team takes pride in giving honest advice and focusing on what your vehicle truly needs. If you have questions, we’ll answer them. If you’re unsure about a repair, we’ll explain it. If you’re trying to plan ahead, we’ll help you prioritise.

We also understand that vehicle repairs can be stressful, particularly when unexpected issues come up. Our goal is to make the process smoother and more straightforward, by keeping communication clear and helping you make informed decisions without pressure.
