" Did you know"
Most Major Repairs Start With Ignored Warning Lights
Most drivers don’t realise how much they’re overpaying — or under-servicing — until it’s too late. These facts might save you thousands...
60% of cars in NZ are serviced by generalists — most misdiagnose key systems
General garages often lack the tools and training to work on complex car systems.
This leads to patch-up fixes that cost more long-term.
Using non-specific oil or parts can cut engine life by 25%
Your engine needs the right grade oil, filters, and parts to perform and last.
Using general parts may seem cheaper now — but it risks major damage later.
We only use approved components to protect your investment.
Dealer servicing can cost 30–50% more for the exact same work
Why pay more for a logo? We use the same diagnostics, parts, and service intervals — minus the inflated pricing.
Plus, you get to talk directly with the techs who actually work on your car.
What does that mean?
Specialist servicing isn’t a luxury — it’s essential. Done right, it saves your car and your wallet.
We Speak Your Cars Language — Not Gibberish
"Didn’t think anyone outside the dealership could do it properly…"
Turns out DCH actually knew more — and didn’t charge a fortune.

“It’s too expensive.”
Preventative servicing might seem like a cost now, but it saves you thousands in the long run. Catching issues early means fewer breakdowns, no emergency repair bills, and a smoother, safer drive every day.
“Only the dealer knows my car.”
Our technicians are trained specifically in European makes like Audi, BMW, VW, and Mercedes. We use the same tools, diagnostics, and processes — without the dealership overheads. You get expert care, just without the showroom prices.
“They won’t have parts.”
We stock the most common parts in-house and have trusted suppliers who can source even rare items same day or overnight. That means less waiting and no delays just because your car is a European model.
“I’ll lose my warranty.”
Absolutely not. Our servicing meets or exceeds manufacturer specifications, using approved parts and methods. Your warranty remains 100% intact — and we keep detailed records so you’ve got full proof if needed.
“I don’t have time.”
We get it. That’s why you can book online in minutes, drop off before work, and even request a loan car while yours is being serviced. It’s designed to be smooth, not a hassle.
“I’ve had bad experiences before.”
That’s why we do things differently. From clear pricing and honest advice to genuine care for your car, we’ve earned a reputation for trust — and our 5-star reviews back it up.

The Questions Euro Owners Always Ask
How often should I service my Car?
Depends on the make, but generally every 10,000 to 15,000 kms is best.
Will I void my warranty coming to you?
Nope. As long as parts meet spec and logs are maintained, you’re good.
Are you cheaper than the dealership?
Almost always. Same quality, better service — without the premium price tag.
Do you use genuine parts?
We use a mix of OEM and high-quality aftermarket, depending on what’s best for your car and budget.
Can I book online?
Sure can — or give us a bell on 03 348 3189.
And we’ll get right back to you.
