Your Local Mobile Mechanic in Five Dock
We’re based just up the road in Drummoyne, so Five Dock is a few minutes away, and you’re not paying for someone to drive across Sydney to get to you. Most bookings are made 24–48 hours ahead.
Running Right is a family-run business. We bring a fully equipped mobile workshop to your driveway or your workplace and do the work in front of you.
We Diagnose First
We find the fault before replacing anything, so you don’t pay for parts that weren’t the problem.Explained in Plain Language

Our name is on it. We treat your car the way we treat our own.Why a mobile mechanic makes sense in Five Dock
Five Dock suits this kind of work. Most of our customers here have a driveway to work on, or live on a level enough street that we can set up safely at the kerb.
The exceptions are the narrower side streets, and anything tight to Great North Road or Henley Marine Drive where parking restrictions apply. Let us know when you book and we’ll work out the best spot. There’s usually something quieter a street or two over.
Apartments are fine too. We also service apartment blocks around Myler Street and nearby, where there’s underground or visitor parking.
Not just small jobs. We’ve done a full cooling system repair and the auto electrical work alongside it on a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee in Five Dock, the sort of job most people assume has to go to a workshop.

Novated Lease Vehicles
You don’t have to go back to the dealership. You can choose your own repairer, and we can often bill your provider directly.
*Logbook servicing price depends on make, model, variant and the service due. We’ll confirm it before booking. Pre-purchase inspections are $250 inc. GST; a travel fee (for example where tolls are involved) or weekend call-out fee may apply, and is always confirmed before you book.
What we need from you
Not much, but it helps to know:
- A legal, safe place to park: a driveway, visitor bay, off-street space or a legal kerbside spot
- Reasonably level ground, because we can’t safely jack a car on a steep slope
- You don’t need to be home. Plenty of customers leave keys and go to work. We’ll call before anything gets done.
Some jobs genuinely need a hoist, like tyre fitting, wheel alignments, major driveline work. We’ll tell you straight away if that’s the case rather than wasting your time.
