AA Auto Centre at 64 Wilson Street in Whanganui Central is a one-stop workshop for mechanical work and Warrant of Fitness inspections. Work includes oil changes and cambelt replacements, and the centre gives a 12-month warranty on all work it completes. It is also an AA Battery Service centre and carries a full range of AA car batteries. The website says it will give advice for each person's needs. AA Pre Purchase Inspections are offered at this site, but must be booked in advance, and the AA 10-Point Check is available to help keep a car in good condition.
Reviewers often mention friendly people and experienced staff. One said the staff were super helpful and knowledgeable when they dropped in to get something checked. Another said each WoF visit for an SUV and caravan was professional, and that the technician fixed a minor repair at no extra cost. One reviewer had a different experience: a WoF inspection did not flag rust on their father's car, which was found after a thorough clean, and they said the car should not have passed. Since WoF checks are part of this centre's work, that review is the one a visitor would want to weigh.
