Straight answers

A friendly, reliable
and honest service

Moora Automotive is a locally owned and operated workshop on Tootra Street. We service all makes and models, both used and new, from everyday runarounds to work utes and four wheel drives.

A lot of the cars that come through the gate belong to people passing through on the way to Perth or up north. If something has gone wrong on the road, we will look at it, tell you what we find, and be straight with you about whether it is a job for us or one better done somewhere with the right part on the shelf.

We are also the RAC Roadside Assistance Contractor for the district, so if the RAC sends someone our way, it is us who turns up.

What we do

Servicing all makes
and models

The twelve jobs below are the ones listed on our own workshop sign. If what you need is not on the list, ring and ask. It is a small town and we would rather tell you straight than have you drive over for nothing.

01

Vehicle Servicing

Logbook and general servicing for anything that comes through the gate, new or used.

02

Safety Checks

A proper look over the car before a long run north or down to Perth.

03

Steering

Steering components checked, adjusted and replaced where they need it.

04

Suspension

Shocks, springs and bushes, including the rough ride that gravel roads give a car.

05

Brakes

Pads, discs, drums and fluid, inspected and replaced.

06

Clutches

Clutch diagnosis and replacement on manual cars, utes and light trucks.

07

Cooling Systems

Radiators, hoses, thermostats and coolant, which matter in a Wheatbelt summer.

08

Exhaust Systems

Exhaust repairs and replacement, from the manifold back.

09

Engine Tune-Up

Tuning to get an engine running the way it is supposed to again.

10

Transmission

Transmission servicing, diagnosis and repair work.

Diff servicing and repairs, including the heavier rear ends on 4x4s.

12

4x4 Vehicles

Four wheel drive work, including the driveline noises that show up after a rough trip.

Not sure what it needs? Ring and describe the noise.

The workshop

Run by Dale Cockman

The workshop is Dale Cockman's. If you ring the mobile, that is who you are most likely speaking to.

Outside the workshop Dale races a Moora Automotive Holden Commodore in street stocks, and he is president of the Central Midlands Speedway club out at Moora Speedway. The business backs local racing, including junior sedan drivers coming up through the club.

It is the same reason the shop works the way it does. In a town this size the person whose car you fixed is someone you will see again at the speedway on Saturday, so there is no percentage in being anything other than straight with people.

  • Cars, utes, four wheel drives and light commercials
  • Petrol and diesel, new and used
  • Moora and the surrounding central Wheatbelt district
  • Passing traffic on the run between Perth and the north

Broken down on the way through

Moora is a long way from the next workshop

If a warning light has come on, the brakes have gone soft, or something in the driveline has started making a noise you do not like, pull in and we will have a look. We will tell you whether it is safe to keep going, and we will not invent a job that is not there.

Was in Moora using my works van and had all sorts of engine lights show up. The team at Moora checked it out and gave me the all clear to drive back to Perth. Cannot fault the customer service, I reckon they should open a branch in Perth!

PPatrick BiancoGoogle review

I stopped by Moora Automotive with my Pajero due to issues with the 4WD system making unusual noises. The mechanics immediately took the time to inspect the car and clearly explained the cause of the problem. Since they didn’t have the required parts on hand, they honestly advised me to continue to Perth for the repair. What impressed me most was their honesty – they didn’t even charge me for the inspection. A fair and trustworthy service – highly recommended!

FFabianGoogle review

Had a 90k service done on my Triton today. They booked me in at short notice and I'm completely happy with the work they did. In fact that they did exactly what I required and more for a very reasonable price. I would highly recommend this business to anyone needing reliable repairs and service.

PPhil BurnettGoogle review

Save our trip and charge us very cheap price for fixing our car, make us safe to back home Perth. He is a very honest man, didn’t take the advantage of travellers, we had very bad experience when we traveled down south
