Paremata Auto Services is an independent, MTA-assured workshop at 4 Ulric Street in Plimmerton, just off SH59 in north Porirua and a five-minute walk from Plimmerton train station. It services and repairs all makes and models, including European and American cars, light trucks and campervans up to 7 metres and 6 tonnes. Its work covers servicing, WOF checks that can be done while you wait, tyres and wheel alignments, nitrogen tyre inflation, air conditioning regassing, suspension, electrical problems, brakes including rotor machining, timing belts and exhausts. Modern vehicles are scanned with diagnostic equipment. Courtesy cars are available, and the website asks people to check availability. Appointments are needed.
Reviewers say the workshop gives good service and advice at a fair price, and describe the team as honest and kind. One customer who has all their family cars serviced there recommends it. Another praises the mix of skill, professionalism and calm in one place, and says a motorhome company looks forward to more work with them. Reviewers also mention an urgent repair. One reviewer disputes the reviews, saying they come from friends and family, and says a fuel mix-up was handled too easily. Two other mechanics are within a kilometre: Garage Monkey, 0.3 km away, and Plimmerton Auto Services, 0.4 km away.
