Navigating Vehicle Maintenance: Choosing the Right Service for Your Car

Introduction:

Keeping your vehicle in peak condition requires careful consideration of its maintenance needs. At service centres like ours, you’ll typically encounter two primary service options: the Minor Service and the Major Service. Each of these services is designed to address specific components crucial for ensuring your vehicle’s optimal performance.

Service Options at a Glance:

When opting for a Minor Service, your vehicle will receive a thorough check that includes changing the fully synthetic engine oil, replacing the oil filter and air filter, conducting a meticulous 52-point inspection, resetting the service reminder, and finishing off with a wash, vacuum, and service book stamp.

On the other hand, the Major Service encompasses all the elements of the Minor Service but goes a step further. It includes additional components such as fuel or diesel filter replacement, platinum spark plugs, and a comprehensive examination of the entire vehicle, including brake checks and suspension.

Brake Checks & Suspension:

Brakes and suspension are integral components subject to regular wear and tear. During routine servicing, we conduct a thorough examination, including a close look at these critical elements. Any necessary additional work is quoted separately. If your vehicle requires brake replacement, reach out to us for a personalised quote.

Timing Belts and Cam Belts:

The timing belt replacement schedule varies among manufacturers, typically falling between 80,000 to 150,000 kilometres. When replacing a timing belt, it’s crucial to also replace the water pump, tensioner, and pulleys. Neglecting these components can result in more expensive repairs. Pricing for timing belt replacements is contingent on your specific vehicle, and quotes are readily available upon request.

Brands Serviced:

Our service centre is equipped to cater to a diverse range of car brands, providing a comprehensive solution for your vehicle maintenance needs. We prioritise quality parts, ensuring reliability and assurance for your vehicle’s optimal performance.

Other Services Offered:

In addition to standard services, we offer a range of specialised services to address various automotive needs. This includes engine overhauls, suspension repairs, electrical repairs, cooling system repairs, clutch kit replacement, CV-joint/driveshaft/prop shaft repairs, shock absorber repairs, and wheel bearing replacement.

Conclusion: Regular vehicle maintenance is an investment in its longevity and performance. Whether it’s a routine service, brake check, or addressing specific issues, selecting the right service ensures your vehicle stays on the road safely and efficiently.
