Professional Maintenance That Works for You
Our car servicing is designed to give you confidence on the road—whether you’re commuting daily, heading off-road, or prepping for long-distance travel. We’ll walk you through what your vehicle actually needs and tailor the service to suit your driving style.
For newer vehicles, we can follow your manufacturer’s logbook requirements to maintain warranty coverage. For older or high-mileage cars, we focus on condition-based servicing, inspecting known wear points and recommending only what’s necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should a car be serviced?
Most vehicles should be serviced every 5,000 to 10,000 kilometres or every 6 to 12 months, depending on the manufacturer’s recommendations and how the car is used. High-mileage vehicles or those used for frequent short trips, towing or off-road driving may require more frequent servicing. Regular servicing helps identify minor issues before they become costly problems and ensures your vehicle runs safely and efficiently. Always refer to your owner’s manual for your specific service schedule.
What’s included in a standard car service?
A typical car service includes an engine oil and filter change, inspection of brakes, tyres, lights, steering, and suspension, as well as top-ups of fluids such as coolant, brake fluid and washer fluid. Mechanics will also check belts, hoses, battery condition and look for any leaks or visible wear. Depending on the service interval and the vehicle’s condition, additional work like air filter or spark plug replacement may be included. A service log is updated to help maintain your vehicle’s resale value and warranty.
Is regular car servicing really necessary if my car seems fine?
Yes, even if your car appears to be running well, regular servicing is essential for long-term reliability and safety. Many components—such as oil, filters, brake pads, or coolant—wear down gradually, and issues like oil contamination or worn belts may not cause immediate symptoms. Servicing helps prevent breakdowns, protects engine health and ensures your car complies with warranty conditions. Skipping services might save money short term but often results in higher repair costs later.
