FAQs
-
Every vehicle’s requirements are entirely different. Logbook services are necessary to keep you car’s warranty in tact, this is because a logbook service follows the manufacturer’s guidelines exactly. If your car is no longer under warranty, a general service is definitely the correct decision. A general service can save you a lot of unnecessary repairs, as the vehicle goes through a thorough inspection we can inform you of necessary repairs and can then advise you on priority of repairs (what can wait, and what needs to be done right away).
-
Yes, your warranty will still be valid if you service your vehicle with us. In order for your vehicle’s warranty to be valid, services need to be carried out exactly as the logbook or dealer guidelines specify. Without this we are legally not able to stamp your logbook. Every logbook service will be different according to the kilometres, age and make of the vehicle; because of this, prices of logbook services vary much more than general services.
-
As a general rule, it’s advised to service your car every 6 months. For newer cars (first 10,000kms/5years) it’s important to reference your owner’s manual as there may be different requirements for logbook services. For older cars it is also important that within those 6 months you check your fluid levels to catch any abnormalities before they become bigger issues
