Car Repairs in Randburg: What to Expect

Handing your car over to a workshop takes trust. Here’s exactly how our process works so there are no surprises.

Step 1: Contact us or bring the car in. If you’re not sure whether the car is safe to drive to us, call 011 326 3133 first and we’ll advise you.

Step 2: Assessment before quoting. Our mechanics don’t guess. We run diagnostics and inspect the fault properly before giving you a price. No shotgun replacements.

Step 3: You get a written quote. You know exactly what the repair costs and roughly how long it takes before we lift a spanner. We only start once you’ve approved the work.

Step 4: We do the repair. If we find anything else during the job, we contact you before acting on it. You stay in control.

Step 5: Collection. Most standard repairs and services are done same day. More involved jobs like a clutch replacement or timing belt will be discussed upfront with a realistic time estimate.

The RMI and MIWA guidance on repair quotes explains why motorists should be clear on the difference between a quote and an estimate before approving workshop repairs. That’s standard practice at Fangio Auto: clear diagnosis, clear quote, and no extra work without your go-ahead.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do car repairs cost in Randburg?

It depends on the repair. We give every customer a written quote before starting any work, so you know the cost upfront. Call 011 326 3133 or WhatsApp us to talk through your specific problem.

Do you work on all vehicle makes and models?

Yes, we work on most makes and models, from common everyday cars to imported vehicles, SUVs, and bakkies.

How long will my car repairs take?

Straightforward services and most common repairs are done the same day. Bigger jobs like a clutch replacement or timing belt replacement may take longer. We’ll give you a time estimate when you book.

Can I get car repairs done on a Saturday?

Fangio Auto Randburg is open Monday to Friday only, 07:30 to 16:30. We’re closed on Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays.

Can I use an independent workshop if my car is still under warranty?

For servicing and non-warranty maintenance, South African motorists have more choice than many people realise. Right to Repair South Africa’s guide to the automotive aftermarket guidelines explains that drivers can choose an independent service provider during the warranty period, provided the work is handled correctly and recorded properly. Warranty repairs themselves may still need to go through the manufacturer or approved dealer, depending on the claim.

What if I don’t know what’s wrong with my car?

That’s fine, bring it in or call us and describe what you’re noticing. We’ll run a diagnostic and explain exactly what the fault is and what fixing it involves.

Do you offer car service and repairs together?

Yes. We can handle your logbook service and any repairs in the same visit where possible, so you don’t need two appointments.
