MTU marine engines we service
Our diesel technicians work across the MTU marine range — propulsion and auxiliary — for both pleasure and commercial vessels. If your model isn't listed, call us; we almost certainly cover it.
MTU Servicing & Scheduled Maintenance
We carry out scheduled servicing on MTU Series 2000 and Series 4000 propulsion engines and gensets, working to sensible maintenance intervals that protect reliability and resale value. Regular oil, filter and coolant attention is the cheapest insurance against an expensive failure offshore. Whether you run a single yacht or a commercial fleet, we keep accurate records and flag wear before it becomes a breakdown.
Diagnostics & Electronic Fault-Finding
MTU's high-speed diesels run sophisticated common-rail fuel systems and ADEC electronic engine management, so accurate diagnosis matters. Our technicians read fault codes, interrogate the electronics and trace mechanical and sensor faults to their root cause rather than throwing parts at a problem. We diagnose hard starting, power loss, overheating, smoke, alarms and intermittent electronic faults.
Repairs, Overhauls & Rebuilds
From individual mechanical repairs through to top-end work and full engine overhauls, we have the diesel expertise to bring tired MTU engines back to dependable service. We advise honestly on rebuild versus replace so you spend money where it actually pays off. All work is carried out to high marine standards with quality parts and proper testing.
Parts, Repower & Installation Support
We source genuine MTU and quality aftermarket parts to suit your engine, budget and lead-time, and we manage the supply so you are not chasing components yourself. When an engine is beyond economic repair, we provide repower advice and installation support to get the right power package into your hull. Our team handles alignment, ancillaries and commissioning so the job is done once and done right.
Mobile Service, Commercial & Survey Support
We come to you with mobile MTU service across Port Phillip Bay and the Melbourne marine precincts, minimising downtime for working vessels. For commercial operators we work in with your survey, slipping and maintenance schedules to keep certification and uptime on track. Larger jobs are handled at our fully equipped Spotswood workshop.

We manage the supply chain for you so you are not left chasing components, and we will always advise where a genuine part is the right choice. Tell us your model and we will quote on the parts you need — call (03) 9399 5888.
Do you offer mobile MTU service around Port Phillip Bay?
We do. We provide mobile diagnostics and servicing across Port Phillip Bay and the Melbourne marine precincts to keep downtime to a minimum. Larger overhauls and major repairs are handled at our fully equipped Spotswood workshop. Call us on (03) 9399 5888 to arrange a mobile visit or workshop booking.
My MTU has an electronic or common-rail fault. Can you diagnose it?
Yes. MTU's high-speed diesels use common-rail fuel systems and ADEC electronic engine management, and our technicians diagnose electronic and mechanical faults to root cause. We read fault codes, test the injection and sensor systems and trace power loss, alarms and hard-starting issues. That means we fix the actual problem rather than guessing at parts. Request a quote or call (03) 9399 5888.
Should I rebuild my MTU or repower with a new engine?
It depends on the engine's hours, condition and how you use the vessel, and we will give you a straight answer. In many cases a well-executed overhaul restores years of reliable service for far less than a new engine. Where an engine is beyond economic repair, we provide repower advice and installation support. We inspect, quote and let you decide with the full picture in front of you — call (03) 9399 5888.
What's the typical turnaround on MTU repairs and overhauls?
Smaller services and repairs are often turned around quickly, while full overhauls depend on scope, parts lead-times and survey requirements. We give you a realistic timeframe up front and keep you informed throughout the job. For commercial operators we work in with your slipping and survey schedule to protect uptime. Call (03) 9399 5888 for a quote and timeline.
