About Lowes
When something is not quite right with your vehicle, experience has shown that it can be put down to a few common - and sometimes not-so-common reasons. Our customers trust us to know exactly what those reasons are... and get their vehicles back on the road asap and at an affordable price. This is what has kept us in business for more than 18 years!
We can diagnose and repair any fault in almost all makes and models of cars and four wheel drive vehicle electrical systems - both petrol and diesel. We also specialise in suspension repairs and upgrades, we are Warrnambools largest stockist of Power Crank Batteries, we service and repair Air Conditioning systems, we have a chassis dyno, and we are the only specialist diesel repair workshop in town!
So whether you need an engine tune up or an EFI fault diagnosis, we can help you. Lowe’s have experience in car, 4x4, light truck, agricultural, heavy truck, and more!, so you can rest assured that you are taking your vehicle to the right place!

Bloody unbelievable. Felt like We were driving a different ute yesterday after you all finished with installing the HD clutch and remap. It has way more grunt and power. Glen cruised the hills today no more pedal to the metal doing 45. Can't thank Tim and the boys enough. - Joanne ODonnell

Hey Tim. The work you did on my 79 series is great. The increase in power and torque is fantastic. Seamless and smooth delivery across a nice wide band from 1,000 RPM in fifth with no holes or flat spots. The new exhaust is nice and quiet at highway speed, but you still know it's a V8...You've made a new car heaps better to drive. Thanks. - Peter Rowley
