About TFD Tyre & Mechanical

Booking ahead is the best way to make sure we can fit you in at a time that suits. We do our best to accommodate walk-ins when we have availability, but for anything beyond a quick tyre check, a booking means less waiting around for you. Give us a call or book online and we’ll lock in a time that works. Same-day bookings are sometimes possible, so it’s always worth asking.

We accept cash, card, and EFTPOS. If you have any questions about payment before your appointment, just give us a call and we can sort out the details. We always give you a clear quote before any work starts, so there are no surprises when it comes time to pay.

We work on passenger cars, SUVs, 4WDs, utes, and light commercial vehicles. Whether you’re driving a small hatchback around Mackay or a tradie’s ute out on the job, we’ve got you covered. We don’t service trucks or heavy vehicles, and EV and hybrid servicing is something we’re still working toward, so we’re not offering that just yet. Give us a call if you’re unsure whether we can help with your vehicle.

Yes, we service most makes and models of passenger vehicles, SUVs, utes, and light commercials. We use genuine and OEM-spec parts across the board, so your vehicle is getting the right components regardless of brand. Our Snap-On diagnostic equipment reads fault data across a wide range of manufacturers, which helps us find the actual problem quickly rather than guessing.

Under Australian consumer law, you’re generally able to have your vehicle serviced by a qualified independent mechanic without voiding your manufacturer warranty, as long as the correct parts and fluids are used and the service is properly documented. We use genuine and OEM-spec parts and keep thorough service records. That said, warranty terms vary, so we’d recommend checking your specific warranty conditions or contacting us to talk through your situation. This is general information, not legal advice.

Yes. If you’re not happy with the work we’ve done, we’ll make it right. We stand behind the quality of what we do, and if something isn’t how it should be after your service, come back and talk to us. We’re a family-run workshop and our reputation matters to us, so we’re not in the habit of leaving a job half done or a customer unhappy.

We work with fleet vehicles as well as private cars. Local businesses around Mackay with utes, vans, or light commercial vehicles are welcome to get in touch about regular servicing and maintenance. Being a one-stop shop for tyres, mechanical work, wheel alignments, and inspections means less time organising different providers for your vehicles. Contact us to talk through what you need and we can work out a servicing arrangement that fits.

Just give us a call or bring the vehicle in. We’ll take a look, talk through what we’re seeing, and give you a clear quote before anything gets started. We don’t believe in springing unexpected costs on people. If we find something additional during the job, we’ll contact you first and explain what it is and why it matters before we go any further. You’re always in control of what gets approved.

TFD Tyre & Mechanical is a fully independent, family-run workshop, not a franchise and not affiliated with any car brand or dealership. It’s a father-and-son operation with 18 years in the trade. Being independent means we’re not pushed toward upselling particular products or hitting franchise targets. We give honest advice based on what your vehicle actually needs, full stop.

Yes, drop-offs are no problem. A lot of our customers drop their vehicle off in the morning and collect it once the work is done. We’ll contact you when it’s ready, or sooner if we find something that needs a conversation before we proceed. If you need to know roughly how long a job will take, ask us when you book and we’ll give you a realistic estimate based on what’s involved.

We’re based in Mackay. Parking is available on site, so you won’t need to stress about finding a spot nearby. If you need specific directions or want to confirm the address before heading in, give us a call and we’ll point you in the right direction. Our contact details and location are on the website.

We’re a TMR-approved inspection station, so we can carry out Roadworthy Certificates and Certificates of Inspection right here on site. No need to find a separate inspection station. Whether you’re buying or selling a vehicle, re-registering, or need a COI for another reason, we can handle the inspection and walk you through what’s involved.
