The experience was like no other I have received in 20+ years of car ownership. Greg is highly knowledgeable on all things BMW but, most importantly to me, is also incredibly honest and trustworthy. His communication skills are first class. I will not be taking our car anywhere else from here on in.

I had some major concerns with my BMW X4 and was feeling really stressed about what might be wrong. Greg at Peter Mabey Car Care in Artarmon was absolutely fantastic – honest, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful. He took the time to explain everything clearly, sent me vidoes as the work went on and handled the issue with real expertise. It's rare to find someone you can truly trust with your car, but Greg exceeded all expectations. I couldn’t be happier with the service and the outcome. Highly recommend Greg and the team to anyone needing quality BMW care – they really know their stuff. Thank you Greg and team.

Deserves more than 5 stars... They fixed the FRM Footwell module on my MINI Cooper S R56. Now my indicators, lights, hazards etc work as they should. Greg's professionalism and the fact he took time to explain things to me, made these guys the right choice for me, rather than taking my precious MINI to the dealer. Thank you for doing a great job looking after me and my MINI. Armond Eldib

In August 2024 I had a 'drivetrain warning light' appear on my dash of my F40 M135i. At substantial cost the dealer replaced the turbo actuator mechanism. Less than 1 year later the same warning light appeared again. The earliest I could get an appointment to get the dealer to analyse the problem was 5 weeks. As I suspected that this might be a warranty claim I waited - the car was driveable in 'limp' mode. After the dealer performed analysis ($300) I was informed that it was a turbo/wastegate failure requiring a complete turbo replacement at approximately $9,500. I questioned how they arrived at this analysis and was told they had inspected the turbo via the wastegate dump pipe. None of this rang true... I took my car the Greg at Peter Maybe BMW for a second opinion. Within 2 days Greg had found a faulty electrical connection, fixed the wheel alignment, installed a new battery and fixed a leaking rear tyre. My car is fixed... no new turbo required at under 10% of the dealer quote.

Hi Mr Taggett,
Thank you for your kind words and also remembering me from when I looked after your M3 10 or so years ago. It is very satisfying diagnosing and correcting faults, especially when we can save thousands.

Dealer Service or Peter Maybe BMW? I had a drivetrain warning light on my F40 M135i come on in September 24. The dealer fixed the problem by replacing the turbo watergate actuator at considerable expense. 11 months later in August 25 the same driveline warning light came on. I suspected the same problem and tried to engage the dealer in analysis as it might have been a warranty claim. I was told the first available slot was in 5 weeks. The car was driveable in ‘limp’ mode. Finally after 5 weeks the dealer analysis claimed a turbo failure and a replacement cost of $9,500. No prospect of warranty. I questioned the analysis and was told that they had inspected the turbo internals via the wastgate dump pipe. No report was provided despite a cost of $300. I took my car the Greg as I was uncomfortable with the cost, depth of analysis and believe-ability. Needles to say Greg at Peter Maybe BMW diagnosed as a faulty electrical connection to the turbo waste gate. The dealer experience was terrible. Thankfully the Peter Maybe experience was 5 star.

Date of experience: 19 September, 2025

Greg was fantastic. I had a vanos solenoid issue with my car, and he was able to fix it quickly and professionally. He’s incredibly meticulous and kept me updated throughout the entire process with regular video updates. The car is now running better than ever. I also appreciated his after-service check-in. It’s refreshing to deal with a mechanic who truly cares about his work and his customers. Thank you, Greg!

I had a great experience at Peter Mabey Car Care. Greg was transparent, professional, and thorough in diagnosing a suspension issue with my car. He clearly explained the problem, provided a fair quote, and completed the repair efficiently. The caster rod arms were replaced, and a wheel alignment was done, fully resolving the issue. Highly recommend their service!

Greg, Katrina and team have been nothing but a pleasure to deal with over the years that I have been servicing my car with them. They have always gone above and beyond, selflessly taking the time out of their busy schedules to explain any issues. Having dealt with a number of mechanics and dealerships, the straightforward, honest communication has been a breath of fresh air and has given me peace of mind knowing that my car is in good hands. Instead of simply replacing parts, issues are thoroughly investigated and diagnosed, with no shortcuts taken. In my experience, the attention to detail, expertise and care shown by the team is unmatched. I can say that I have the utmost trust in servicing my car here and will not have it attended to by anyone else.

Peter & Katrina are wonderful and true masters in customer care, communication and workmanship. Peter went above and beyond in diagnosing an intermittent fault whereas most other workshops would've thrown parts at it and unlikely to resolve the issue. Very happy and would recommend to any BMW owner whether they're hand on the tools or not so mechanically inclined.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Peter Mabey BMW workshop for servicing my X5, and I must say, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with professionalism and warmth (it's a family business), setting the tone for what turned out to be a seamless service encounter. Greg's knowledge and expertise were evident from the get-go. He listened attentively to my concerns regarding the vehicle's performance and diligently addressed each one with precision. Greg's familiarity and decades of experience with BMW vehicles, instilled confidence in his ability to handle any issue effectively. What truly stood out was the personalized approach to customer service. Greg took the time to explain the maintenance procedures in detail, keeping me informed every step of the way. Such attentiveness is rare to find and greatly appreciated. Highly recommend to any BMW owner seeking unparalleled service excellence.

Super honest and forthcoming shop. Greg and I discussed the repairs that likely would have to be done upfront as well as the quotes for each piece + labor. He also explained the issues that came up so I better understood what was being done. Incredibly quick turn around time and knowledgeable about all things Beamer. He is like a surgeon for your BMW, highly recommended if you need your car serviced/repaired.

Greg’s workshop came highly recommended, and for good reason. He and his team have extensive knowledge of all BMW’s models, thorough diagnosis and transparent communication. His level of expertise and care is something you simply do not experience at the official service centers. Highly recommend and will use again.

Greg was highly knowledgeable. I went to him with a rattling noise in my car and he correctly diagnosed and fixed an engine mount issue, with the car now running smoothly. He sent videos with commentary so I could understand the issue. Would highly recommend.
