The intervals of when to service your car varies between manufacturers, but as a general guideline, a minor car service is usually carried out every 10 000 to 15 000 kilometres, and major car services usually at around 30 000 to 45 000 kilometres. Consult your car manual to confirm the specific servicing requirements for your vehicle.
What we do on a minor service?
A minor servicing generally includes a comprehensive vehicle inspection and diagnostic checks, engine oil and filter replacement, vehicle greasing and tyre rotation by a professional factory-trained technician. It can be part of the logbook service, and sometimes it will be referred to as a basic or general service.
What a major service covers?
A major car service is the most comprehensive type of car service, with a full inspection of the vehicle. It includes the outside of the vehicle, hinges and latches, and the timing belt. It usually includes spark plugs and filters; replacing transmission and differential oils; and checking brake and clutch fluid.
