Addington, Christchurch
The garage Christchurchactually trusts.
Full mechanical, auto electrical, diagnostics, hybrid and EV battery work, AC, tyres and WOF, all under one roof on Hazeldean Road. Honest advice, fair prices, and work done right the first time.
What we do
One workshop for everything your car needs.
Petrol, diesel, hybrid or EV, everyday runabout or prestige marque, it's all handled in-house by people who explain the work before they do it.
Mechanical Repairs
From a knock you can't place to a full engine or transmission rebuild. We diagnose it properly, then fix it right the first time.
Auto Electrical
Starting and charging faults, wiring, sensors, lighting and electrical gremlins traced back to the source.
Diagnostics & Scanning
Dealer-level fault scanning to read your car's real story, not guesswork. You'll know exactly what's wrong and why.
Hybrid & EV Batteries
High-voltage battery testing, module repair and replacement. One of the few Christchurch garages doing proper hybrid and EV work.
Air Conditioning
AC service, regas and repair so the demister and cold air are there when a Canterbury winter or summer needs them.
Tyres & Punctures
Supply, fit, balance and puncture repairs. Walk in with a flat and we'll get you sorted, often on the spot.
Warrant of Fitness
WOF inspections handled in-house. If something fails, we can usually put it right then and there to save you a second trip.
Servicing & Maintenance
Honest, on-time scheduled servicing for everyday cars and prestige marques alike, at a fair price with no surprises.
Our specialty
Proper hybrid & EV battery work, not just servicing.
Most garages send hybrid and electric cars somewhere else. We don't. YM Auto tests, repairs and replaces high-voltage battery packs and modules in-house, so a tired hybrid battery doesn't have to mean a new car.
- High-voltage battery health checks and diagnostics
- Module-level repair and pack replacement
- Toyota, Lexus and most hybrid makes welcome
- Inverter, converter and EV electrical faults

"We were travelling from Auckland when we experienced some mechanical issues. We stopped at YM Auto without an appointment, and although they were very busy, they took the time to listen and started diagnosing straight away. They identified and fixed the issue within just 3 hours, getting us back on the road quickly."
"I recently had my car serviced and I'm genuinely impressed. The mechanic was highly professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain everything clearly. What stood out most was the honesty and attention to detail. It's not always easy to find someone you can trust with your vehicle, but this was one of those rare experiences."
"A huge shout-out to Yazn and YM Auto. They fixed a punctured tyre on short notice and the whole process was fast, smooth and stress-free. Every time I have needed support they've shown the same care, honesty and professionalism. If you want mechanics who genuinely put people first, this is the place."
"A great experience. They were honest, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain exactly what needed to be done without any pressure. The work was completed on time and at a fair price. My car runs perfectly now, and I'll definitely be coming back."
"Walked in and asked to arrange a service and they offered to do it on the spot. Got it sorted within 15 minutes at a very affordable price. Approachable and friendly. Previously serviced, did the WOF and changed tyres here, so they never disappoint."
