Accurate oil leak diagnosis and repairs carried out by experienced mechanics in Wairau, Auckland, helping protect your engine and prevent further damage.
At Wairau Motors, we identify the source of oil leaks properly and carry out repairs that address the cause — not just the symptoms.
Oil leaks can come from a variety of sources, including seals, gaskets, hoses, or engine components. Because oil can travel before it drips, accurate diagnosis is essential.
Our mechanics inspect the engine thoroughly to locate the true source of the leak, assess the severity, and explain the best repair approach before any work begins. This avoids unnecessary part replacement and repeat leaks.
