Great service. Brad diagnosed and fixed a longstanding fuel leak I was worried about. And it wasn't even the reason my car was there. Highly recommended.Posted on Google![]()

"I can’t thank Brad at Rapid Tune Airport West enough! I was having DPF issues with my NF Amarok, and Brad was a massive help as my usual VW dealer was booked for weeks. He is clearly super knowledgeable, takes the time to thoroughly investigate, and explains all of his findings in great detail. It’s hard to find an honest and reliable mechanic these days, but Brad is top-tier. I highly recommend Rapid Tune Airport West—ask for Brad!"Posted on Google![]()

I definitely recommend the guys at Rapid Tune, they take the time to go over everything clearly & outline the priorities. Brad is the cheerful face at reception with great knowledge & I find him very helpful since l know nothing about cars. My car always runs smoothly after their services & l appreciate the itemised work being explained to me in detail, when l come to collect it. They accommodate my needs by working within my timelines & they go that extra mile to check in a few days after, to ensure that l’m still happy! Yep, it’s that good old fashioned service, we’re all chasing.Posted on Google![]()

After running over a rather large screw last night when everything was closed, I drove in to Rapid Tune hoping to get the tyre fixed this morning but not expecting to be successful. Feeling anxious as a female, and being given the run around before, I walked in, explained what happened and within a second felt totally relaxed. Daniel was so friendly, honest and within an hour I got a call that it was all fixed and my car was ready to be collected. I never write reviews but felt that they definitely deserve it!!Posted on Google![]()

Great mechanic. Had neglected my coolant and car started overheating, Daniel and co. Sorted me out on the day with a full flush with fresh coolant and no more overheating :) Honest and upfront and didn't try to tack on any additional unneeded extras. Good stuff.Posted on Google![]()
