Why Should I Regularly Service My Car?
Getting a full car service done regularly prevents problems from building up, causing the need for mechanical repairs later.
Your car won’t look any different afterwards, but the work that’s been done on it will keep it running well for many kilometres more.
There are various parts of your car that need to be regularly inspected, flushed, and cleaned to keep your car running well.
Taking good care of your car will keep it running like new for longer.
How often should I service my car?
We recommend that you get a full car service, also called a major car service, every 40,000 km. Whilst a minor service, should be done every 10,000 km.
This is the point at which enough wear and tear from driving has built up in your vehicle that a full car service becomes necessary.
We also recommend getting a minor car service done once a year, regardless of how far you have driven during that time period.
