Look After Your Car and Your Car Will Look After You

Your car is probably a vital part of your life. It is there for your commute, for your weekly food shop, to take you on breaks away, plus many other activities.

A reliable car is essential, which is why it is so important to look after your car so that it’s there for you when you need it most. Your Kingsgrove mechanic is here to help you get the most from your car and ensure that it remains reliable.

How often should you get your car serviced?

There is no easy answer to this question, but as a rule of thumb, you should get your car serviced every six-twelve months or every 10,000 km if that comes first.

The amount of servicing your car will need from your Earlwood mechanic will also depend on the age and condition of your car. With an older car, you might want to have it serviced more regularly as parts of your car are more likely to go wrong when it is older.

That said, with regular servicing and preventative care, you can help your car remain on the road for much longer.

Prevention is better than a cure

While some people have the misconception that servicing will cost them a lot of money and they can save themselves the cost, the truth is, it may end up costing more in the long run.

During routine servicing, your Belmore mechanic may pick up on something that could become a bigger issue in the future. Small fixes are cheaper and easier to do. However, if they are left to get bigger, it could cost you a whole lot more because more damage will have been done.

Different service types

There are different types of car services that you can have, including minor and major servicing. Your minor service will check important features such as steering, brakes, brake fluid and many more. They are quick to complete, so you will have your car back before you know it.

Major servicing, on the other hand, takes a lot longer because many more components of the car are checked, as well as checking all the elements that would take place during a minor service.

Check your car’s servicing manual to determine which type of service you should get and when, or call your local Roselands Automotive Centre for friendly advice.
