The 5 Best Car Repair Shops in Bali When Your Ride Needs Help
Car trouble in Bali can be a real hassle. Some repair shops charge significantly more than they should, especially if they believe a customer is unfamiliar with local pricing. Others might get the job done fast, but what about the quality? Not always up to par.
So, after checking out various shops, comparing prices, and consulting with locals, a few reliable spots stand out, offering fair prices and solid service.
As a result, here are some of the best car repair shops in Bali that strike a good balance between cost and quality.
How much do car repair services cost in Bali?
Car repair services in Bali typically cost IDR 300,000 for minor repairs. However, the final cost can vary depending on the type of vehicle, the complexity of the issue, and the specific repair shop you choose.
1. Nusaka Motor Service
Business Address: Jl. Cargo Permai No.43, Ubung, Kec. Denpasar Utara
Contact: +62361423428
Business Hours:
- Monday to Saturday: 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM
Nusaka Motor Service is one of the well-known car repair shops in Denpasar, trusted by both locals and expats.
They offer a range of services, including routine maintenance such as oil changes and brake checks. Several customers have praised their mechanics for quick and reliable service.
Yes, it’s their mechanics that really set the shop apart. They take the time to explain what’s wrong with the car before starting any work, which adds an extra layer of trust.
They also tackle more complex issues, such as engine overhauls and electrical diagnostics, offering fair pricing ranging from IDR 300,000 to IDR 2,000,000—one of the reasons they made it onto our list.
The only downside is that it can get quite busy, especially on Saturdays.
Also worth noting: they’re closed on Sundays, which can be a bit inconvenient if urgent repairs are needed at the end of the week.
Very affordable price
“What will be replaced or repaired has a clear explanation and the price is affordable, and I also went to Nusaka in January 2022, there were a few complaints about the car, and those complaints were repaired, because it was light and didn’t replace the equipment, it was free. Hihihi, mothers who get it for free are happy enough to be able to fill the kitchen”
–Hera Wijaya, Google Review
Highly recommended service
“Recommendations for service friends in Nusaka. Comfortable service and waiting area equipped with air conditioning and regarding the work will be confirmed first to the customer and we as customers will know the estimated cost. Maintain the existing service and continue to develop it in the future. Success for Nusaka.”

2. Ina Motor Auto Car Service
Business Address: Jl. Suweta, Ubud, Kecamatan Ubud, Kabupaten Gianyar
Contact: +6281338311588
Business Hours:
- Monday to Saturday: 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM
- Sunday: 8:00 AM – 3:00 PM
If you’re in Ubud, you’ll find Ina Motor Auto Car Service very handy. It’s a small, locally owned workshop that’s been around for years, primarily catering to motorbikes and handling car repairs.
We’ve heard the prices here are generally affordable, with basic services like oil changes and battery replacements starting at around IDR 200,000. Meanwhile, more complex repairs can go up to IDR 4,500,000, which can be above the average pricing.
As for the workshop itself, it’s functional and stocked with the essential tools for most repairs. However, compared to larger service centers, they don’t have the latest diagnostic equipment, so troubleshooting complex electrical problems may take longer.
The space is also quite basic, with just a few chairs and no dedicated waiting area. It’s not much of an issue if you don’t mind a no-frills environment, but it’s something to consider during longer wait times.
Friendly service for good pricing
“We got a flat tire while driving in Ubud, called INA Motor and those guys were on the scene within 20 minutes. The technician quickly repaired the wheel and checked the pressure on the rest of the wheels. Very professional and friendly service for a good pricing. Highly recommend their service!”
–Maxim Fedchishin, Google Review
Quality and timeliness of service
“We got flat tires due to bad road condition, they quickly send technician with mechanical car and escorted to the Benkel. They immediately change the tires. Quality and timeliness of service are beyond of my expectation. This Benkel is five star and our life saver on that day.”
–Noriko Takano, Google Review
3. Bengkel Usaha Kita
Business Address: Jl. Raya Pemogan No.21, Pemogan, Denpasar Selatan
Contact: +623618452285
Business Hours:
- Monday to Saturday: 8:30 AM – 5:30 PM
If you ask around Pemogan for a reliable car repair shop, there’s a higher chance that someone will mention Bengkel Usaha Kita.
A fellow car owner told us he’s been coming here for years because the mechanics don’t just fix cars; they meticulously prevent future issues—that kind of attention isn’t common.
Beyond general repairs, they’re also known for bodywork and paint jobs. Their paint matching is precise, so you won’t have to worry about uneven finishes or mismatched colors.
However, unlike other shops on this list, Bengkel Usaha Kita’s service can lean towards premium pricing. The bodywork or engine repairs can cost up to IDR 6,000,000, which may be slightly higher than average.
And since they focus on quality, they take their time. You might have to wait longer when it gets busy. So, if you’re in a rush, check the turnaround time first.
Fantastic service and great honest work
“Fantastic service and great honest work, nothing done that doesn’t need it.
Really looked after my car and wrapped with the results. Thoroughly recommended and won’t take my car anywhere else!”
–Mahaindra Putra, Google Review
Great auto garage and workshop
“Great auto garage/workshop, great hospitality from the owner and mechanics. Have a 4WD Dyno machine. Never get to tired when we talk about engine performance.”

4. Bengkel Cat Mobil Pratama
Business Address: Jl. Ahmad Yani Utara No.464, Peguyangan Kaja, Kec. Denpasar Utara
Contact: +6282147700240
Business Hours:
- Monday – Friday: 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM
- Saturday: 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM
Bengkel Cat Mobil Pratama is like a go-to spot for car repairs, maintenance, painting, and other car-related services here in Denpasar. Many customers often recommend this place, particularly due to their occasional promotions.
Despite their promotions, we wouldn’t call them the cheapest on our list. Their prices range from IDR 500,000 to IDR 12,000,000—and that’s a LOT, to be honest. While the quality is definitely there, it can feel a bit steep if you’re working with a tight budget.
But one thing we really appreciate is their customer service. We’ve been helped right away without having to wait, which is a huge plus when you’re in a rush.
Even better, they stick to their timelines. If they say five days, it really is five days. A friend of ours confirmed this too, and that means a lot when you’re juggling busy schedules.
Just a heads-up: they don’t take walk-ins, so we needed to book an appointment ahead of time. And since they’re closed on Sundays, weekend plans need a bit of coordination.
Extraordinary service
“Extraordinary service, being able to pick up and pick up cars without having to leave the house during a pandemic like this… Satisfactory results… My Fortuner car is like new, the paint is good”
–Mohammad Fathan, Google Review
Friendly and communicative
“Service: friendly and communicative workmanship results: satisfactory
Service fees: affordable according to the results provided, recommended for car body repair”
–Andreas Surya, Google Review
5. San Garage
Business Address: Jl. Pegangsaan Timur No.56, Dangin Puri Klod, Kec. Denpasar Tim.
Contact: +6281288006561
Business Hours: Open 24 hours
We came across San Garage in Denpasar late one night when a friend’s car broke down. Most shops were closed, but this one? Open 24/7. That alone made it a lifesaver for our midnight car emergency.
Since they’re open around the clock, it can get pretty busy during peak hours (12 PM and 5 PM onwards) and parking can be a bit tight. You will need to be prepared for a slight wait during these times.
What we love is that they offer a wide range of services—everything from general repairs and bodywork to custom modifications. Whether you need a quick oil change or something more specialized, they’re well-equipped.
What’s even better is their efficiency. Their mechanics work quickly, but they don’t compromise quality despite the fast service.
Another standout feature is their convenience—just drive in, and they’ll take care of it. No necessary appointments, perfect if you need urgent help.
A relaxed consultation
“Where else can you find a workshop like this? You can bring your own parts, and you can have a relaxed consultation while having coffee. A powerful workshop without a match, if you don’t have a car, you better come here. At least hang out”
-Yudhistira Sastra, Google Review
Best car solution in Bali
“Best Eurocar solution in Bali, not expensive, ready on call for storage anytime if there is something wrong with the car on the road, highly recommended”
