These specialists know their cars and they know Subaru...very well. The staff are competent, courteous and a delight to do business with. I recommend them unreservedly!

I don't write negative reviews thus I am not a keyboard warrior; this is my first.

Acted in an unprofessional manner, was quoted one price and then would not honor that pricing. The error was made on their side as all the information they required and have I the documentation to prove it. The person who I spoke with either ignored this or could not grasp the emails and documented timeline provided. Deplorable way of doing business, in the end I was spoken to in such a tone that was contemptuous and dismissive and no, I never raised my voice or acted in manner that was anything but polite. It would appear self-evident that All Drive Subaru believe that as potential customers it is our privilege to be dealing with them.

Was referred to them by a Subaru specialist workshop and I will certainly be making my feelings known to them in regards to ADS attitude and lack of professionalism.

After our Forester engine blew up, we chose an ADS Level 3 remanufactured engine. Never has our car been so thoroughly inspected as ADS did. They sent photos of every part that needed to be repaired or replaced and we were amazed at the poor condition of some. Tomas and Robert gave us much advice along the way and communicated frequently to keep us fully updated re work and costs. We followed all their advice on what should be done and are extremely satisfied with the finished job - completed a week or so sooner than expected. We were most impressed with their factory when Robert took us through it. Two fills of fuel show the consumption to be 9.2 and 9.1/100km. We'll add a review in 12 months time and trust it will still be a glowing one.
Thanks to all the ADS people for the great job done.

The guys at All Drive Subaroo were helpful with the selection of gearbox to suit my car and plans for it. The price was really good and the box was built for me in less than 2 days. They sourced Subaru genuine parts I needed and had all of it packaged up ready to pick up. Top quality work by top blokes. Thanks for helping me to get my car back on the road.

The staff were terrific. Knew what I needed and could afford.

Such a relief to be back on the road feeling secure that the Gearbox will do what it is supposed to do.

thanks guys, and the mum who answered the phone sometimes.

Big thanks to the guys at ADS, they saw me on short notice to prep my STI for a track day, sent me progress photos and kept me up to date regarding pick up. They go above and beyond, more so than your dealership or standard mechanic and make you feel really comfortable about leaving your car with them because of their attention to detail and quality work. Highly recommend!

Recently we had to sort out what to do with our ageing Subaru MY 07 Liberty GT that we have loved for many years: repair or sell?
A Subaru Service centre in our town, couldn’t help in our decision; it’s just getting old!!
All Drive Subaroo in Peakhurst was our next stop. We ventured from 100 km away and were greeted by the best customer service person we’ve ever had to deal with in over 30 years.
He was welcoming and courteous and promised to return the car that afternoon with an answer.
We highly recommend that if you’re in Sydney,or elsewhere, and you have a Subaru, get it checked by All Drive
Subaroo.
That’s a slam-dunk: you’ll get the best service the best attitude and honest answers. Overall, a great experience.

Chris I would like to thank you along with Issac and Niazi and all involved in getting my sons car back on the road for him.

Unfortunately it was left up to myself to make arrangements to have his car repaired due to the long hours that he works and the stress that he felt he was under given the fact that he had only purchased the car in the last 3-4 weeks using all his savings to do so.

I choose Alldrive Subaroo after doing some research online and reading all of the positive reviews.

Being 53 I personally had no experience with these types of cars (I have added some photos of my cars to show how far my knowledge is with these WRX cars so you can understand)

I can say that I was treated from the start to the finish like a VIP everything was explained to me in a manner that I could understand as well as all cost upfront.

Its very rare these days to get the service that I received from every one that I spoke with along with pictures sent of the engine building process.

All this gave me full confidence that you guys were doing the right thing by me knowing that I was six hours away lack of any knowledge and a father willing to do what ever was needed for his son.

My son will be given strict instructions that his car is only to go to you guys for any maintenance/service needs that it may require

Truly Thankful

I called up for advice having just bought my first Subaru, a clean white 04 liberty sedan 3.0SpecB six speed manual, (pre facelift, non-centre diff control) and had questions about the viscous coupling and gearbox, and the amazingly helpful bloke on the phone couldn't have explained it better or more simply, aftermarket LSD's, their own uprated viscous couplers, how to test the viscous coupler (by jacking one wheel and trying to move it, smooth resistance is what you want).
What more could you ask for?
I'm looking for more advice having just bought a 2.5 '04 wagon 5spd with low range, as a replacement for the sedan whose nose was broken, whacked by a young girl texting and driving her Mazda.
I'll eventually give All Drive Subaroo some money for their services, gladly.

I had planned a track day with my GC8 WRX STI on Sunday, so took it for a quick drive around the block on Saturday to make sure it was running ok. 5mins into driving it wouldn’t rev cleanly over 3000rpm. I’ve had issues with this before and thought my Sunday Track Day was over unless I could find someone to fix it on a Saturday?? All Drive Subaru was open so limped the car out there where Isaac had a look over it for me. After diagnosing what could be wrong he systematically looked at about 3-4 issues which was causing the car to do this which he explained to me as he went through them. This took 2.5hrs which was 2.5hrs after he was meant to finish his shift and leave but stayed because he wanted to find the solution to get my car running so I could get to the Track Day on Sunday. Needless to say after 2.5hrs of not rushing but fixing the problem and any associated problems which could have arisen on my Trackday the car ran perfectly. I went to leave & fix them up for the 2.5hrs Isaac had spent on my car and Niazi and Isaac said “Don’t worry it’s on us”!!! I would have been ready to pay anything for their effort and getting me to my Trackday the next day where apart from being disappointed I would have lost $300 not being there. I didn’t want to leave without paying for there service but they insisted.(I had never been there before). I’m actually blown away by a business that provides this type of customer service that is so genuine, honest and passionate. These guys are next level in knowledge, quality and honesty as a business and Subaru’s. I’m definitely a convert and will be using these guys for all my existing and future needs as I develop my STI.

My experience with All Drive Subaroo was excellent. I ordered a reconditioned gearbox for my daughter's 2008 Forester and collected it last Friday. From Niazi (the owner) to Rob, Chris, Adam, Ruben and the young guy in the workshop who cleaned up the parts that I needed to keep (who's name I didn't get), there was their obvious experience and knowledge of all things Subaru, plus their professionalism, helpfulness and, importantly, respect for this old guy trying to get my daughter's car back on the road. I'll be recommending them to anyone I can.

Just bought my first Subaru late last year and absolutely stoked I decided to visit ADS.
If you want something done right on your Subaru, this is the place you want to take it!

Such a great team there who really love their Subarus and show that same love to their customers cars.
They always spare the time to ensure you get exactly what you want....or better than you thought possible!

Excellent product and service. They shipped a level 2 rebuilt engine to Perth where it arrived at the mechanical shop as scheduled. The shop was impressed with the engine and the complete box of parts that came with it.

Tomas and his team went out of their way to help me with a rebuilt gearbox for my 2006 WRX that had broken down in Sydney while on a trip from Brisbane. Subaroo managed to supply the gearbox in less than 3 days at a very affordable price.I have now driven more than 1000km back to Brisbane and am very satisfied with the response and smoothness of the gearbox. Great job, team !

I was referred to All Drive Subaroo by a mechanic in Northern NSW to enquire with some highly technical questions about engine internals.The technicians were extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and happy to help.I've called a few times since, with questions specific to Subarus, and each person I spoke to was highly expert.Would love to make my way to All Drive Subaroo for an engine rebuild in the future.

Super easy to deal with and knowledgeable too.Ordered a level 2 motor to replace my old tired ej251 along with associated parts, it arrived promptly and is noticeably smoother than the old one.The whole process was straightforward and well explained.

Couldn't be happier with All Drive Subaroo. From the 1st phone call Tomas was polite, helpful with a wealth of knowledge he helped me through supplying an exchange engine for my 09 Forester and also chased some other parts for me when I couldn't find them myself. When you go there all the staff put the customer 1st and are happy to help. What a wonderful , knowledgable , professional outlet for all Subaru needs. Thank you guys.Mick S.

The staff at ADS quickly diagnosed the ‘hum’ coming from the rear of our beloved stock 04 XT. It was their last day of trading for 2025 and they said they would be able to get a new bearing fitted- while we wait! They gave us a loan car so we were not inconvenienced. Such amazing service from such wonderful people! It’s a shame we don’t live in Sydney or they would be the ones we go to for all our Subie work- thanks again legends!
