Anyone know a defender mechanic near Albany Wa

[Red Dog]

My defender 130 td5 has developed a ticking noise in the engine. My mechanic is in NSW and I’m travelling in WA. I’m currently in Margaret River and heading south east from here towards Albany, then Wave Rock, Esperance, Norseman area, then back across the Nullarbor. Can anyone please recommend a mechanic near any of these places to help me out. Thanks.
Unfortunately I’m not mechanical enough to diagnose where the ticking noise is coming from. It does seem to be from the back end of the motor.

Franzone Motors are long gone, but we have Aztech 4x4 being DazzaTD5 on here if you get as far as Perth.

Panuccio Autos in Bunbury may be able to help you or TVR in Dunsborough may be an option a bit closer.
