About our workshop

A cost-effective alternative to the dealership, without compromising the workmanship

All Four x 4’s Service Centre was built for one reason: Newcastle and the Hunter needed a workshop with genuine experience servicing and repairing Land Rover and Toyota 4WD vehicles, at a fair rate, with dealership-level quality.

We’ve grown into large, modern premises with the ability to rebuild gearboxes and diffs in-house, alongside staff skilled in diagnosing, repairing and servicing the latest Land Rover and Toyota 4WDs. With our state-of-the-art Auto Logic diagnostic machine, Snap-on scanner and ongoing technician training, you finally have a real alternative to the dealer.

Whether you drive an Isuzu D-Max, the latest Range Rover Sport or a 79 Series LandCruiser, your 4×4 gets the attention to detail you and your vehicle deserve.

Our story

About All Four x 4 Service Centre

All Four x 4 Service Centre opened in June 2007, born from a clear need: a workshop that specialised in Land Rovers and Toyota 4WDs and offered a cost-effective alternative to factory dealerships, without compromising the quality of workmanship.

While All Four x 4 had always repaired Land Rovers and Toyotas, demand grew for bigger premises with not only the ability to rebuild gearboxes and diffs in-house, but specialist staff who could diagnose, repair and service the latest models.

With the purchase of the state-of-the-art Autologic diagnosis machine and Snap-on scanner, plus ongoing training through both internal and external sources, our customers now have a genuine alternative to the dealership at an affordable rate.

Common questions

4WD servicing FAQs

Are you a 4WD or 4x4 mechanic near me in Newcastle?
Yes. Our 4x4 workshop is in Kotara, central to Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Maitland and the broader Hunter Region. We’re a specialist four-wheel drive mechanic and 4×4 service centre, not a general garage, with technicians who specialise in Toyota and Land Rover 4WDs.
Do you have a mechanic for the LandCruiser, Hilux or Patrol?
Yes. Our 4×4 mechanics work on the Toyota LandCruiser, Toyota Hilux and Nissan Patrol on the tools daily, plus most other 4×4s and even 2WDs. From logbook servicing to gearbox, diff and engine rebuilds, it’s all handled in-house in Kotara.
Will servicing here void my new-car warranty?
No. Under Australian law you can have your vehicle logbook-serviced at any qualified workshop without voiding your manufacturer’s warranty, provided genuine or equivalent parts and the correct schedule are followed. We stamp your logbook and supply a full report, a cost-effective alternative to the dealership.
Do you service Land Rover and Range Rover?
Absolutely. Land Rover and Range Rover servicing is one of our core specialties. We service and repair Discovery, Defender, Freelander and Range Rover models with factory-level diagnostics and over 150 years of combined Land Rover and Toyota experience.
Can you do a pink slip (eSafety) inspection?
Yes. We’re an authorised NSW eSafety Check vehicle inspection station and can complete your rego inspection (pink slip), as well as pre-trip and pre-purchase inspections.
What does a 4WD service cost?
Indicative starting prices are $485 (minor), $685 (intermediate) and $1,350 (major), each using premium oil and including a comprehensive check-over and report. Your final quote depends on your vehicle, engine and service interval. We’ll confirm before any work begins.
