Frequently Asked Questions

  • I'm not sure what's wrong with my car. Will you be able to find out?

    Of course. We have more than 20 years' experience providing mechanical services for all makes and models and can diagnose and repair almost any fault. We even have the latest equipment for computer and electrical diagnosis.

  • How often should I arrange a general mechanical service?

    It is recommended that vehicles receive general mechanical maintenance at least once every 12 months or 10,000 km, whichever comes first. It is also important to refer to specific manufacturer guidelines for your vehicle’s make and model as these may vary. General mechanical maintenance can include changing the oil and filter, replacing spark plugs, checking/replacing brake pads and fluids, topping up coolant levels and inspecting belts and hoses. 

  • What happens if I skip regular servicing for my car?

    Neglecting regular servicing can have several negative consequences for your vehicle. Over time, engine oil can become contaminated and lose its effectiveness, leading to increased engine wear and potentially severe engine damage. Brake pads and rotors might wear down excessively, compromising your safety. Tyres with uneven wear can affect handling and increase the risk of accidents. 

  • Is it necessary to service a car even if it's not used frequently?

    Yes, servicing is crucial, even for cars that are rarely used. Vehicles that remain stationary for extended periods can develop various issues. The battery may lose charge and require replacement or recharging. Tyres can develop flat spots and lose air pressure, affecting the vehicle's handling and safety.


    Fluids can deteriorate over time, even without active use, leading to potential engine or transmission issues. Regular servicing ensures these and other problems are identified and addressed, keeping the vehicle in a roadworthy condition.

  • Does regular servicing help maintain my car’s resale value?

    Regular servicing is a key factor in maintaining and even enhancing your car's resale value. A well-maintained vehicle with a full service history is often more appealing to potential buyers. It demonstrates that the car has been cared for properly, reducing the risk of hidden problems. This assurance can command a higher resale price. Additionally, cars with documented regular maintenance typically have a longer lifespan and better performance. In the used car market, a comprehensive service history can be a significant selling point.
