About Murty’s Auto & EV Centre

The Sunshine Coast’s Local and Independent Alternative to Dealership Servicing.

Shane Murty’s name has been synonymous with premium mechanical excellence, advanced diagnostic fault-finding, and uncompromising workshop precision for over three decades.

But as vehicle technologies evolved, Shane saw a growing need on the Sunshine Coast: local drivers of next-generation Electric (BEV), Hybrid (HEV), and Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV) vehicles were being forced back to costly corporate dealership franchises for basic logbook servicing. General local mechanics lacked the high-voltage training, and corporate dealerships lacked personalised customer service.

Murty’s Auto & EV Centre was purpose-built to solve this problem. By combining thousands of hours of traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) experience with official, cutting-edge national certifications in high-voltage powertrain safety, Shane has delivered a true independent dealership alternative right to your doorstep in Caloundra West.

Meet Shane Murty: From Traditional Drivetrains to High-Voltage Innovation

Shane Murty is a fully qualified Automotive Engineer and a specialist Electric Vehicle (EV/HEV) technician.

Shane’s expertise in traditional internal combustion engines has been built on thousands of hours of practical workshop experience. More recently, through official industry training, he has completed full certification in modern high-voltage powertrain systems.

With an uncommon depth of technical understanding, Shane is able to break down complex automotive diagnostics and transform EV battery management and vehicle safety protocols into both trustworthy advice and actionable processes.

Strict High-Voltage Compliance

Any work on modern EV battery systems and electrical interlocks requires strict adherence to safe work practices. Shane’s certifications mean that every diagnosis and repair will comply fully with Australian safety standards. This guarantees protection for both the vehicle’s warranty and its occupants.

• 100% Manufacturer Warranty Protection:
  Under Australian Consumer Law (ACL), you have the absolute legal right to choose an independent specialist. Making sure your warranty is not compromised, Murty’s follows exact manufacturer specification and uses OEM-specification components.
• No Dusty Generic Components:
  Murty’s carries no “one-size-fits-all” components on our workshop shelves. Every part, fluid, and battery-insulated lubricant used is explicitly ordered on-demand and tailored directly to your vehicle’s unique VIN.
• Dealer-Level Diagnostics, Plain Advice:
  We invest heavily in factory-grade vehicle diagnostic software to pinpoint engine, transmission, and intricate electrical interlock system faults fast. Shane translates the diagnostic codes into plain English so you can confirm all options before any work starts.
