Common Questions

QUESTIONS WE GET ASKED

How often should I service my car?

Most manufacturers recommend a service every 12 months or after a set mileage, whichever comes first. Your service book or the manufacturer's guidance gives the exact interval for your car.

What is the difference between a full service and an interim service?

A full service is carried out to the manufacturer's specification for your car. An interim service is a shorter check between full services, and it suits drivers who cover a lot of miles.

Will servicing at an independent garage affect my warranty?

Having your car serviced at an independent garage does not automatically void a manufacturer's warranty, as long as the work is done to the manufacturer's specification using suitable parts. We service to the manufacturer's specification. If you are unsure, check your warranty paperwork or ask us.

Do you service all makes and models?

Yes. We work on all makes and models, and we fit genuine or OEM replacement parts with a warranty from the supplier.
