Car Mechanic Simulator 2018

Car Mechanic Simulator 2018 is a simulation game about repairing, painting, tuning and driving cars. You take on repair jobs, build up a workshop and expand it into a full-sized garage with three lifts. The game includes over 40 cars, more than 10 tools and over 1,000 parts.

Repair and upgrade cars

Missions are randomly generated, with different challenges, difficulty levels and time limits. You can diagnose and repair parts, replace seats, steering wheels, benches and windows, and work with separated tires and rims. Tools include a shock absorber tool, battery charger, wheel balancer and changer, and an engine crane, which lets you disassemble engines or create new ones from scratch. An XP-based leveling system lets you spend points on upgrades, while an Advanced Upgrades System adds further progression.

You can buy additional tools and expand the garage with specialized equipment, including a lacquer sprayer and parts warehouse. The warehouse stores parts, and a multilevel car park lets you keep cars in storage. Liquids are also part of the cars you work on.

Test, paint and collect

Use the Path Test to check suspension, the Test Track to assess a car’s condition or drive around, and the Race Track to test performance against a timer. The Car Paint Shop lets you paint individual parts and choose matte, metallic or pearl finishes, or apply liveries. Photo mode lets you take before-and-after pictures.

Barn Finds have you search sheds for abandoned cars and parts, while the Junkyard offers rusty cars and parts to scavenge. At car auctions, you compete with other bidders to buy old cars for resale or your collection. You can also buy new cars at the car salon.

Garage and customization

Your workshop starts small and can be upgraded to a full-sized garage with three lifts. The Car Editor lets you add your own cars to the game, and you can customize license plates and use your own music. The game supports modding, including custom cars.

Orders and features

Alongside randomly generated jobs, the game includes pregenerated story orders. It also features a new physics system, updated interface and controls, and controller support. Car parts include exchangeable seats, steering wheels and benches, as well as windows, tires and rims.
