Updated 10 Feb 2026
AutoGuru
The new year is here, and at AutoGuru, that means one thing: it is time to reveal the winners of our 2026 Top Mechanics Awards.
This is our favourite time of year. It is a moment to pause and celebrate the hard-working locals who keep Australia moving. From the bustling workshops in our major cities to the mobile mechanics who turn driveways into service bays, these are the businesses that have set the standard for excellence.
Every year, our automotive partners wait with anticipation to see if they have made the cut. And they should be excited. Earning a Top Mechanic award is no small feat. It is a badge of honour that tells the world: "We don't just fix cars; we look after people."
The Gold Standard of Trust
These awards are special because they aren't decided by a panel of judges behind closed doors. They are decided by you.
We have analysed thousands of genuine customer reviews from 2025 to find the businesses that consistently go above and beyond. We don't just look for a high star rating; we look for consistency, transparency, and that "all-time trust" factor that highlights the businesses going the extra mile for their customers.
The 2026 National Leaders
While we are celebrating finalists across the country, two businesses have risen to the top of the national rankings this year.
Australia's #1 Mechanic
Bridgestone Select Tyre & Auto Robina (QLD)
Taking out the top national spot for workshops is Bridgestone Select Tyre & Auto Robina.
This Gold Coast team has blown us away with their customer service. They have embraced technology to offer video vehicle checks and total transparency, making car servicing a stress-free experience. Their customers rave about their honesty, and it is easy to see why they have risen to the top.
Australia's #1 Mobile Mechanic
For an amazing fourth year in a row, Auto Fixit is Australia's Best Mobile Mechanic.
Based in Brisbane, Rafael has turned consistency into an art form. Being named the best in the country once is hard enough, but doing it four years running is incredible. It proves that their commitment to convenience and quality is here to stay.
Celebrating New Faces and Local Legends
One of the best things about the 2026 awards is the mix of winners.
We love seeing our "regulars" return to the list. It proves that great service isn't a one-off. It is a habit. But we are just as thrilled to see so many new businesses earning their first Top Mechanic award. Seeing new mechanics come onto the platform and immediately deliver 5-star service is what AutoGuru is all about.
