Why Apex, not a general mechanic
Servicing, diagnostics, complex repair, calibration and compliance — same team, same workshop, same car.
Apex Performance Tuning is an independent specialist workshop in Wantirna South, Melbourne, for European and performance vehicles. Most workshops do one part of this list well. The reason clients drive across Melbourne to us is that the car does not have to move between four businesses to be properly sorted.
Factory diagnostic software, not a code reader
ISTA, ODIS, Xentry and PIWIS on site. Guided fault-finding, live data, adaptations and coding — the reason cars arrive here after another workshop replaced parts and the fault stayed.
European diagnostics MelbourneServicing that protects your warranty
Manufacturer intervals, manufacturer-spec fluids, OEM or genuine filters, a completed service and inspection sheet with photo and video evidence and an itemised invoice. Photo and video inspection sent to your phone before extra work is approved.
Log book servicingThe complex repairs others refer out
Timing chains and guides, DSG and mechatronic work, cooling system rebuilds, S65 rod bearing renewal, differential and driveline repair — diagnosed before it is quoted.
Repairs & maintenanceCalibration by people who drive these cars
MHD, bootmod3, COBB and HP Tuners plus custom calibration, always after a health check. Dyno testing available through trusted facilities when a build needs validation.
Performance & calibrationEngineering and compliance under one roof
Import compliance and modified-vehicle certification pathways in Victoria handled end to end, so a modified car is road-legal as well as quick.
Engineering & complianceYou talk to the people doing the work
Trading since 2020 from Wantirna South. Jay handles calibration and performance, Mat B runs the workshop floor, and Phil walks you through the job from first call to collection — no service advisor relaying a message from a technician you never meet.
Meet the teamThe Apex European Service Standard
European servicing should leave you with complete confidence in what was completed, what was inspected and what your vehicle may need next. Every Apex service follows a documented process built around manufacturer specifications, transparent evidence and written approval.
From everyday European vehicles to specialist performance models, every car receives the same documented, manufacturer-focused standard of care.

European car specialist Melbourne
Specialist care for the jobs owners ask us about most.

Workshop answers
Before you book.
Which European cars does Apex service?
Apex services BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Volkswagen, MINI and Porsche vehicles, from daily drivers to specialist performance models.
Can Apex service a European car under new-car warranty?
Yes. Servicing is completed to the manufacturer schedule using genuine or reputable OE-quality parts and the correct fluids. You receive a completed service and inspection sheet, an itemised invoice and a physical service-book stamp where applicable.
What is included in a pre-purchase inspection?
The comprehensive inspection includes an OEM-level diagnostic scan, an on-hoist photo and video inspection of the running gear, checks for leaks and physical damage, a road test and a written report. A shorter essential inspection is also available.
Does carbon cleaning mean walnut blasting?
Where the engine and deposit pattern suit the process, walnut blasting physically removes carbon from the intake valves. Apex first checks the vehicle and engine family because chemical treatments and walnut blasting are not the same service.
Where is the workshop?
Apex Performance Tuning is at Unit 4/6 Woodbine Court, Wantirna South VIC 3152. The workshop serves European-car owners across Melbourne’s eastern and south-eastern suburbs.
