Pontus Automotive

Pontus Automotive is a European and diesel vehicle specialist workshop located at 5 Staple Street, Seventeen Mile Rocks, serving drivers across Brisbane in Queensland.

​

What does Pontus Automotive specialise in?

​

Pontus Automotive specialises in European vehicles, bringing technical expertise to renowned brands including BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Volkswagen and Maserati. With the owner being a mechanical engineer and the team trained specifically on European makes, the workshop is well equipped to carry out comprehensive diagnostics, repairs and maintenance tailored to the intricate engineering of these cars. The team is also recognised for its diesel engine expertise, making the workshop a strong choice for owners of both European and diesel vehicles who want dealer-level care from an independent specialist.

​

What servicing and repairs are available?

​

The workshop covers a broad spectrum of work, from routine maintenance through to complex repairs. Logbook servicing is carried out to manufacturer specifications using a Wynn's engine service kit and premium engine oil, and includes six months of free roadside assistance, keeping a vehicle's warranty intact while it is serviced by an independent workshop. Beyond servicing, the team handles brakes and suspension, gearbox service and repair, air conditioning and radiator work, and advanced computer diagnostics to pinpoint faults quickly. With an in-house engine builder, Pontus Automotive also carries out engine rebuilds and engine swaps to a high standard.

​

What is the diesel engine detox?

​

A standout service is the diesel engine detox, a comprehensive clean of the injectors, turbo, air intake and diesel particulate filter (DPF), along with EGR work. By removing carbon deposits and soot, the service improves fuel efficiency, restores engine power and reduces emissions, helping to prevent common diesel issues such as sluggish acceleration and poor fuel economy. This specialised capability sets the workshop apart for diesel owners looking to keep their engines running cleanly and reliably.

​

Can you get a roadworthy certificate at Pontus Automotive?

​

Yes. Pontus Automotive offers roadworthy certificate (RWC) inspections, known in Queensland as the safety certificate, which are required when selling or transferring registration of a vehicle. Expert technicians carry out detailed inspections to verify the vehicle meets all safety and legal standards, so owners can have certification handled in the same place they service and repair their car.
