    Oil change for $99, I buy 5l of good quality semi-synth for under 20
    http://m.supercheapauto.com.au/Product/Penrite-Everyday-Plus…. Oil filter bulk buy off eBay ~$10. Job done for 1/3 the price, pay yourself the $70 labour costs for 1/2 hour job max ;) No mistakes with over torquing bolts or not replacing crush washers like a lot of these places.

      Thanks Devo93 for your comment.

      You may be able to buy oil and oil filter for $30 but we also provide safety report and inspection report for major things. Again this is not to sell you anything but as a part of our job to inform every car owner about their cars.

      You also need to consider that we need to pay salary to our staff and all other outgoings. We spend more than 30 mins behind all things mentioned above. we don't make fortune with this deal but we want to show our customers the difference between previous management and new management. our goal is to be honest and at forefront in providing right and better customer service.

      This is a same thing like I can buy a water tap for $10 from Bunnings but I will have to pay nearly $100 to get that tap fixed by certified plumbers.

      Thanks and have a great day.

    I am always very cautious with this type of advertised 'deal'.
    Often pressured to fix things that 'should' be fixed/replaced etc. and end up paying waay more than necessary.
    Buyer beware.

    • Associatedpaguj @ Midas on 03/02/2015 - 10:21

      Thanks Macamaca for your comments,

      As I said in my previous response under new management we want to change things and we will give customer a first priority.

      There is no catch. We provide a safety report based on the inspections and it is up to the customer to get things fixed based on customer's priority. I cannot comment on the practices and procedures used by other mechanics but I can confidently say that we do not follow these procedures to loose trust from our customers.

      Thanks and have a great day.

    I bought one them memberships they sold in shopping centres. Said labour was included in the membership and I "only" had to pay for parts. Ended up forking a fair bit for parts and they tried to pressure me into fixing other things. Avoided them since.

    • Associatedpaguj @ Midas on 03/02/2015 - 10:08

      Hi CaptainAwesomee,

      Thanks for your comment.

      Under new management we are open to listen to the customers concern and queries. I cannot provide justification for the services you had received from previous management but I can assure you that we always ask customers whether they want to spend money or not based on important things(again not to sell anything but for genuine reason) from the safety report. it is up to the customers to get things fixed. we do not force customers to sell anything.

      Give us a go and I bet you won't regret your visit to our store.

      Thanks and have a great day.

    A Midas rep approached me in a car park offering $900 of services for 'only $99'. 3 services from memory.

    Turns out they charged an oil change at around $100, coolant change around that too, brake inspection $50, etc. The kicker was that all parts were EXTRA. Yes, on top of the alleged usual '$900 services' they charged extra for oil, filters, consumables, etc.

    I don't understand business that massively inflate their normal charges, then 'discount' them and scream at you that you're getting an 80% off deal. Some people may be impressed at the bargain they're allegedly getting, but others would surely think the normal pricing is the biggest rip off in town and that customers are suckers.

    • Associatedpaguj @ Midas on 07/02/2015 - 11:31

      Hi Cluster,

      Thanks for mentioning your concern.

      No body should be paying more than what they should be. We are getting customers for this $99 voucher ( Midas service Pass) and we are charging them based on the charges written on the Midas Service Plan. Minor service costs $75 based on the voucher and Major service costs $149. There are many products for reduced charges on Midas Service PASS. We do not charge money for Labour based on the Midas Service Pass.

      It is definitely good value for money as we follow charges written on that. No hidden charges.

      Thanks and have a great weekend.

    Under new management….were you promoted from Assistant Manager and the old Manager demoted?

    • Associatedpaguj @ Midas on 03/02/2015 - 11:17

      Hi Dean04.

      It is always good to receive a promotion but not in this case. We have new staff and new management. I should say New Franchisee is in place now. We want to correct all things in right way which was not done before. This store will be upgraded soon to meet customers expectations.

      You can judge us by getting response to your comment in few minutes. In short, we are here to stay to listen and provide a best customer service to our customers. we want to be known for honesty and better customer experience. We will be adding many more features for the customers soon like free courtesy car.

      Thanks and Have a great day.

        Good on you for being honest and upfront.

        I hope you find people are willing to pay good money to not be ripped off.

        Ozbargain is a good place to spread good word of mouth- being an engaged and responsive rep on here certainly helps too- well done so far!

        • Associatedpaguj @ Midas on 05/02/2015 - 11:55

          Hi Damoo,

          Thanks for your comment and suggestion.

          As you may know that you can find pretty cheap deals on Groupon for $19, $29, $50 car service. I cannot comment on what you get for that small amount but We don't want to give a wrong impression to the customer.

          We make sure that we deliver what we have promised based on our charges. our goal is simple, provide an honest and better service to our customers and always be open to listen and resolve their issues.

          Have a great day.

    wish you are in Sydney.

    • Associatedpaguj @ Midas on 03/02/2015 - 11:26

      Thanks Bbcw1980 for the comment.

      I wish i can come down their to fix your car but it would set a bad example of management :)

      Sorry for not reaching out to Sydney but you are most welcome to visit our store and receive a best treatment if you drive to Melbourne at any time.

      Have a great day.

    How much is the surcharge for European cars?

    • Associatedpaguj @ Midas on 03/02/2015 - 12:16
      -1

      Hi IvanTechPRO,

      $50 Extra for European cars as we only use OIL and parts that is recommended by the manufacturer. As you may know that OIL and parts for European cars cost more.

      Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any other queries.

      Thanks and Have a great day.

  • maplesyrup on 03/02/2015 - 11:55

    Do you offer the use of a car?

    • Associatedpaguj @ Midas on 03/02/2015 - 12:09

      Hi Maplesyrup,

      Could you please elaborate more to answer your query. are you talking about courtesy car?

      Thanks

      • maplesyrup on 03/02/2015 - 12:28

        Yes, I meant a courtesy car

          I am sorry that we have not added Courtesy car at this stage but it will be available within 1 month.

          Our store is located next to the tram stop. we can do drop off and pick up within 5 km radius at this stage if tram is not convenient for you.

          Do not hesitate to contact us for any other queries.

          Thanks

    May I know when does this deal end? I am looking at servicing my car but it probably be some time in March.

    Also, I dont see this deal officially on the Midas webiste. I guess its just locally applied when I head to your workshop?

    • Associatedpaguj @ Midas on 03/02/2015 - 21:29

      Thanks KillerkratZ for your interest.

      This deal expires on 2 March but you can book your car for service for any month of the year as long as you book it on or before 2 March 2015.

      You can also reschedule your service date whenever you want as this deal will be applied to you as long as service is booked on or before 2 March 2015.

      This deal is applicable to Midas Kew - 770 High street store only.

      We look forward to see you at our store.

      Thanks and have a great week ahead.
