Mech 101 (for everyone) is a free, monthly drop-in session of car mechanics and maintenance tips, run by Brightwater Motors for all curious people.

Designed by the creators of Chicks That Fix, Mech 101 is an opportunity to tune up your knowledge of car basics in a relaxed and supportive environment. Learn how to whip off a wheel, sand down a spark plug or diagnose a drip. From beginners to pretenders, lipsticks to dipsticks – all welcome, no judgements! People aged 16 and under must be accompanied by an adult.

Held on the first Thursday of every month*. Registration appreciated, walk-ins welcome. Koha donations invited for charity. Bring your whānau/friends, enthusiasm and good cheer.

*October excepted: 20 Oct
