This was my introductory service to Ammstar. An excellent overall experience given the backdrop created by COVID19. Communication regarding issues raised by the service was first rate. My wife & I will definitely be continuing to service both Mercedes vehicles at Ammstar.

I will definitely go back for the service of my Merc. Dan at Ammstar was able to give me a second opinion on works and explanation of the process and parts required, and why it cost what it cost. I proceeded with the work. He was friendly, approachable and is a asset to the company. They appear to be a great team there. Car was finished when promised and was lovely and clean. Dan showed us the parts he took out so we could see the damage. He even quickly fixed an issue in 1 min that another place couldn’t be bothered with looking into at service. Would highly recommend.read more

I had an electronic seat controller replaced after an incident in a car wash. Dan, Ben and the team at Ammstar Fairfield made it very easy for me. They told me how long it would take to complete the job , and they were spot on. I have bought used cars from Anthony in the past fifteen years, paying a fair price, but if anything has been wrong, they have resolved the issue without quibbles. I thoroughly recommend them, Michaelread more

Can’t rate this place high enough. Dan’s service was exceptional and kept me in the loop at all times. Had issues with my 2016 Audi A3 - warning lights constantly appearing and a sluggish ignition. Had previously taken my car to Audi when it was under service warranty but they said there were no issues. Now that I'm no longer under warranty Audi will charge $198/hr for a minimum 2 hours work. Called several places to book in a service but nothing available for about 2 weeks. Called Ammstar, explained my problem and they schedule an appointment the next day first thing in the morning. Dropped the car off and got a call at 10am detailing the issue (and the precise cost to fix) and many more that Audi neglected to address. Car was ready by midday. Safe to say I am now a repeat customer. Thanks Dan and thank you Ammstar!read more

Great team fantastic service and great price. Better than Mercedes dealers by a long way. Better service and much better price. There is no reason whatsoever to take your Mercedes to a dealer when Ammstar provides the service they do.

I’m one very happy customer! The guys at Ammstar have yet again looked after me and done an amazing job with fixing my car. I just had the heating matrix replaced, which required removing the entire dashboard. This had me worried, but I shouldn’t have been because my car feels like new, runs like a dream and I would never have believed the amount of work that went into fixing my car because it came back perfect! I wouldn’t trust my car with anyone else because these guys are the best. I’ve been a loyal customer for over 6 years and will continue going back for servicing and repairs. Their work is always of the highest standard, the customer service is awesome thanks to Dan and they can’t be beaten on price! Thanks again for making my life easier and getting my car back on the road!read more

GI like the personal interaction between Tony and Matthew.

Patricia, Templestowe – C180 Kompressor

One thing that I liked was that I didn’t have to keep chasing up and calling through to find out how my car was going. I was provided with updates and when I was told I would get a call back I did. I find this extremely frustrating with previous service people they say they will call you but they never do.

Pierro, Balaclava

The whole experience was very professional and the workmanship was excellent. Management was a pleasure to deal with. The workshop was pristine which is an indication of how particular they are. Will definitely be a regular. Thank you.

Marilyn, Red Hill – C200 elegance

I was able to drop my car off at a time that suited me along with having a courtesy car which is a must. There were no hidden charges and other work that was required was discussed and optional. My car was driving better than ever!

Michael, Yarrambat – C63 AMG

Very professional. Am impressed with the workshop conditions

Catherine, Deer Park – C200 Kompressor

I really enjoy the fact that I am dealing with a family business because it is far more personal and all family members are delightful to deal with. This does not interfere with the professional standards of the business. The staff they have engaged also appear to reflect the importance of this personal, but professional, service. I appreciate being advised what the issues are that require attention and the approximate cost. And it is a treat to have my car cleaned when I pick it up. When possible, I arrange a “loan” vehicle as otherwise I cannot get to work unless I borrow my husband’s car and send him on public transport.

Carol, Kew – E280

Receptionists are friendly. Tony is friendly and informative. I feel like my cars in good hands – he seems to know a lot about Mercedes vehicles.

On the drive home I could tell immediately that the car was performing differently – it was smooth, it had more get up and go and was performing like a brand new car rather than the 14 year old car that it is. I was thrilled!

Patrick, Eildon – Sprinter

The servicing here was top quality from start to finish.

Stuart, Plenty – A200

The service was excellent. Matt kept me in the loop at all times. I like that he educated me on my car and its components. It was a bit pricey, but im ok with paying a bit more if the person can help me learn a bit more about the car and what is wrong with it.

Phong, Keysbourough – B200

Very pleasant, good response to my enquiry, and very good service.

Alan, Beaumaris – C200 CDI

Christopher, Ashwood – C180 CDI Sedan

Was a smooth and efficient service, communication was effective, staff were polite and helpful

Rodney, Keysborough – C250 CGI

I had the front rotors and pads replaced on my B 200 Turbo. I was able to have the work performed for approximately half the price that I had previously been charged by a local Mercedes dealership. That previous encounter cost $1000! Of equal importance was the professional approach taken by Ammstar, which was a continuation of the service level I had previously experienced with their sister company, Ammstar Autohaus who have serviced my car for the last 4 years.

Colin, Parkdale – B Class

Very happy, extremely polite customer service and nice to be greeted by Tony at front desk. Car was ready early afternoon. Appreciated the loan car for the day also.

Neil, Camberwell – E240

Service is always friendly and helpful at Ammstar. Recommended repairs are clearly explained and prioritized, with no pressure to do unnecessary work. Very much appreciated the complimentary loan car too.

Michael, Donvale – E240

Each aspect of my service experience was well managed from reception booking to pick up of the vehicle. Communication through the service process was timely and whilst options for additional service items were provided there was no pressure to have to non safety repairs completed now.

Chris, Balwyn North – CLK320

I had a fantastic experience and will definitely service my car at AMMSTAR again. – Great communication – Loan car extremely helpful – The guys at AMMSTR dropping my car back off at my work and swapping the loan car was incredibly helpful and all within the same day. Never has having my car serviced been so easy and effortless. Thank you.

Thai, Balwyn – CLK280

I like to keep my car well maintained. As such I want honest advice on work to done while not being “up sold” parts and labour that I don’t need. I also want to deal a service rep. who has had direct communication with the mechanic who worked on my car and has even ‘put his head under the bonnet’ of my car Ammstar does all these things brilliantly!

Mark, Albert Park – C200

Fantastic staff, excellent technical staff

Thushari, Camberwell – C180 Kompressor

Excellent, and not nearly as expensive as I thought. Sparkling clean workshop, helpful staff,car was ready on time. Happy to recommend to my friends.

Helene, Brighton – C180 Elegance

I felt very safe in the hands of Ammstar and felt like I was being told the truth about the condition of my vehicle. This is something I’ve struggled with in the past as a female where I’ve been patronised or had my concerns dismissed. I thank Ammstar staff for their friendliness and willingness to explain issues to me in laymans terms and to listen to my concerns. I appreciated being told what issues were optional for service and what were more pressing so I could make an informed decision.

Rachel, Heidelberg Heights – C200

All good. Matthew reviewed service history and made appropriate recommendations. Overall a good experience which I will repeat next time around.

David, Glen Iris – C220 CDI

I was very impressed with the time and care taken to find the fault with my car. I don’t believe I would have received the level of service and care at any other service centre.

Don, Brighton – A180

Debbie, Kew – C180 Kompressor

Very easy to deal with, and practical approach to technical problems.

Mike, Niddrie – S500

This was my first service with AMMSTAR. They were very friendly and helpful. I drive a 2010 C220 which has a known fuel injector issue. When I took my car in for a service, the engine light was on and the problem was diagnosed. I was informed that just one injector was $1700 to replace, however, thanks to their knowledge of Mercedes, they knew that there was a special warranty out which covered the injectors and they organised all 4 to be replaced at no charge. $6000 work for free! Very impressed!!!

Gene, Eaglemont – C200 CDI

One of the few service centres that inspire confidence in you when you talk to them. Very professional, but not at the expense of friendliness and easy communication. Well done, guys!

Michael, Bendigo – C180 Kompressor

Professional and caring. Seemed to go the extra mile…
