autorepair

'car service' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'golden ripped couple' is the wordplay.
'golden' becomes 'au' (Au is the chemical symbol for gold).
'ripped' becomes 'tore' (I've seen this before).
'couple' becomes 'pair' (synonyms).
'au'+'tore'+'pair'='AUTOREPAIR'

'for' acts as a link.
